Nara: A stylish Thai bistro

Ignore the fact that Nara is in a shopping mall because there’s nothing predictable or boring about this charming Thai bistro. The décor is refreshingly modern for those sick of the same “traditional” Thai furnishings at every other restaurant in the city.

There’s plenty on the menu but the Sukhothai noodles are especially delicious. The combination of sweet, savory, soft and crunchy will blow your mind (and your sinuses if you forget to ask for it not too spicy).

During lunch hour Nara is packed with local business people and high-society ladies so make sure to book a table in advance.
