Lemon Grass Restaurant

Description

Thai food combines the best of several Eastern cuisines: the oriental bite of Szechwan Chinese, the tropical flavour of Malaysian, the creamy coconut sauces of Southern Indian and the aromatic spices of Arabian food. The most prevalent flavour in Thai cooking comes from the chilli, which surprisingly was introduced to the country by Portuguese missionaries in the sixteenth century. It didn't take the Thais long to make good use of it, believing that chillies cool the body, stimulate the appetite and bring balance and harmony to their food. A Thai meal offers a combination of flavours; sweet, hot, sour, salty and sometimes bitter. With the heavy reliance on rice, abundance of fresh herbs and vegetables, minimal use of oil, and treatment of meat as a condiment rather than a main course, Thai and Vietnamese food has to be among the healthiest on the planet. We hope you enjoy our cooking, as all food is freshly prepared to our best standards
