What would Thai cuisine be without Thai noodles? One of our very favorite pan fried noodle dishes at Rachada Thai Cuisine is Gai Kua.

Gai Kua is not quite as familiar to many Americans as Pad Thai, and of course we serve a great Pad Thai at Rachada Thai Cuisine. But a little variety is the spice of life, and we’d like to suggest you give Gai Kua noodles a taste if you’d like to try something delicious and different next time you’re out for a Thai noodle fix.

Gai Kua noodles are made with flat, wide rice noodles perfectly stir fried with with egg, green onion, and bean sprouts, and usually includes chicken for the meat. If you’d like to substitute pork or tofu, just ask.

The different twist is the egg, subtly mixed in the stir fry for a unique flavor. By the way, Kai means “egg” in Thai.

Eggplant Salad with Grilled Shrimp is a wonderfully delicious Thai salad and perfectly refreshing for the summer season.
The grilled Chinese eggplant are succulent and sweet and the grilled shrimp are fresh and delicious. We butterfly the shrimp before they go on the grill which gives the shrimp just a touch of crunch, the perfect preparation for this special salad.

The wonderful variety of seafood dishes brings a culinary distinction to Thai cuisine.  The Southern region of Thailand is famous for the rich abundance of fresh seafood found in the surrounding waters. Fish, prawns, lobsters, crab, squid, scallops, clams and mussels are frequently used in many of the main dishes. Thai Mussels in Clay Pot is one of our very special seafood dishes at Rachada Thai Cuisine.

We steam the freshest and tastiest New Zealand Green Mussels in a broth of Thai herbs including Thai sweet basil, lemongrass and galanga (a ginger like root).
