Makan House – Thai
Makan House transports diners to the heart of Southeast Asia, where the air hums with the sizzle of woks and the intoxicating perfume of fresh galangal and Thai basil. Each plate is a vibrant tapestry of flavor, from the velvety depth of slow-simmered coconut curries to the bright, citrusy snap of hand-pounded salads that dance across the palate.
