Boon Thai – Thai
Boon Thai transports diners to the heart of Southeast Asia, where the air hums with the rhythmic clatter of woks and the bright, citrusy perfume of crushed lemongrass. Each plate is a masterclass in balance, layering the fiery punch of bird’s eye chilies against cooling ribbons of green papaya and the rich, golden depth of slow-simmered curries.
