I absolutely Love this place and it is a hidden gem among the bustle of Parramatta Rd. My boyfriend and I adore the boat noodle soup and the pawpaw salad. The rest of the food is fantastic too. Real authentic Thai food, becoming quite a rarity these days! The service is lovely as well. Highly recommended.

This restaurant is a local secret and an absolute gem. Just near the corner of Leichhardt's Crystal St, it is a small Thai restaurant that looks like a takeaway joint (it does takeaway too) but has some of the most authentic, fresh and delicious Thai in Sydney.

A sister restaurant to the famous Nina's Ploy Thai in Bondi, this local is a husband-and-wife run gem. Make sure you order the Drunk Noodles, Crispy Pork, amazing stirfried sator (weird, yummy little beany things), great tofu and bean sprouts, simply divine simple stir fried morning glory (greens), and a fab Penang curry. The chicken with chilli and basil is a standout, ask for the chicken minced, in the traditional way.

We live very close to Newtown's hundreds of Thai restaurants but would rather drive here any day. And despite its being on Parramatta Road, there's always a park RIGHT out front. Say hi to Roy, the delightful man who runs the restaurant, and enjoy his wife Achara's incredible food. You may be the only people in the place (locals haven't yet caught on but it's only a matter of time) but you will be rewarded with fantastic food and prices never over about $20pp. It's BYO, of course.
