Ridgewood Restaurant Guide

Thai food conjures up visions of miles of sunlit beaches, vibrant street markets, and a wonderfully sociable way of life. It has become increasingly popular in recent years, and with good reason - it's healthy and very distinctive in it's flavors, making a Thai meal the perfect choice for any occasion from a quick midweek supper to an elegant themed dinner party for friends.

It also has the added bonus of being extremely healthy making it perfect for the modern age. One of the main reasons for this is the method of cooking which is based almost exclusively on rapid stir frying or steaming. Both of which help to retain the nutritional value of ingredients. Thai cuisine, however often misunderstood as a single cuisine but it is actually best described as four regional cuisines. Our restaurant focuses on the central cuisine where the food is considered the most sophisticated of all the four regions as it is a cuisine made for the royal family.
