Tamarind Restaurant Phuket proudly unveils four innovative new menus, skillfully crafted by the celebrated Chef Nok. This latest culinary collection blends the depth of Thai culinary heritage with the sophistication of contemporary French gastronomy, promising guests a truly memorable dining journey. The menu highlights Chef Nok’s creative vision, using premium ingredients to reimagine classic dishes. Diners begin with the Spicy Seafood & Glass Noodle Salad, where fine glass noodles are elevated with wakame and nori, then paired with tender Hokkaido scallops, rock lobster, and fresh squid for a vibrant, zesty start. Next, the ‘Tom Yum’ Lobster Bisque presents a brilliant fusion of two beloved soups. The creamy richness of a traditional lobster bisque is enhanced by the bold, spicy-sour notes of authentic Tom Yum Goong, delivering a layered taste experience that is both comforting and surprising. For the main course, the Phuket Lobster ‘Khao Soi’ offers a luxurious reinterpretation of Northern Thailand’s iconic curry noodle dish. Succulent local lobster rests in a fragrant coconut broth, accompanied by crispy noodles and traditional condiments for an elevated yet nostalgic flavor profile. To close, the Mango & Passion Tart Tatin puts a tropical twist on a French classic. Sweet mango and tangy passion fruit are caramelized into a golden tart, paired with refreshing homemade coconut ice cream for a vibrant finale. Each dish reflects an impressive balance of tradition, innovation, and artistry—raising the bar for fine dining in Phuket.
