Suwan Thai

Direction from google map is a bit misleading. Search "Galleria Salamanca" and enter from there up to the corner and go to second floor. Parking payable around Salamnca market. Place: plenty of table, clean toilet. Not so much on the Hobart view. Service was attentive and quick. Food: we ordered, pad thai, fried rice, chicken salad, and green curry. All comes with authentic Thai taste. Portion is good for the price. Definitely will come again if i visit Hobart.

This is my first time visit Suwan Thai, I’m indeed impressed to find this high quality Thai in Tassie. Im a huge fan of pad Thai, had it all the time when I was in Bangkok. The pad Thai of suwan Thai is the first one I have had on this island so far really close to what I had in Thailand. We love the Tom Yam soup too, we cannot stop from drinking that, their chefs are definitely good at seasoning and know well about Thai cuisine. Though the mango sticky rice is quite expensive, $15, the portion is satisfactory. I cannot emphasis enough how surprise am I when I find the sticky rice have the same taste as I had back to Thailand. However, the texture of the rice is a bit too runny, and the mango is too sour (I cannot blame the restaurant on this) in the standard of Thai dessert. Overall, we had a wonderful Thai dinner today, will visit again for sure!

Not bad food by any means, it just wasnt very good. Portion sizes were good for both Pad Thai and Beef fried rice. Both beef and chicken were overcooked though and the Pad Thai was abnormally sweet, couldn't finish it off as the sweetness was a bit overpowering. Really nice people though, price was fair for the quality of the meal.
