The calming ambiance of the restaurant complements the Thai cuisine that they serve.

Crispy Pork with Stir-fried Kale
There are different dishes to choose from Azuthai’s menu. Start your dish with their Pomelo salad; a mix of sweet and sour to refresh your palates. For something savory and sweet, try their Pad Thai, one of Thailand’s traditional noodle dish. AzuThai also offers traditional Thai desserts and beverages such as the Tap Tim Krob, Tako, and their classic Thai Iced Tea.
We recommend the Crispy Pork with stir-fried Kale, a soy sauce-based dish with crisp pork lying on a bed of steamed kale. Another favorite is the Pandan Chicken, made with small portions of chicken wrapped in pandan leaves.
