BaanThai Restaurant
Kentish Town, London
Two decades ago, there were hardly any Thai restaurants except in main business areas, and Thai ingredients were hard to find. But now most of us don't need to look further afield than our high street near home. One such restaurant/café is BaanThai. Conveniently situated between Kentish Town and Tufnell Park tube stations, BaanThai offers friendly and comfortable atmosphere with good variety on menu. The service is good, fast and friendly, the food is authentic and the prices are reasonable. For a main dish, a big bowl of Kuey Tiew Nuea or noodle Thai herb soup with beef (£6.50) can fill you up easily, especially on a cold winter's day. Or if you'd prefer something spicier, there are many dishes to choose from, one of which is Kanom Jean Nam Ya or rice vermicelli with curry source (£8.00).
As for those who would like to begin with starters, there is also a variety to choose from, including Satay Gai or grilled marinated chicken with peanut sauce (£4.95), soft shell crab (£6.50) and Tod Mun Pla or deep fried fishcakes served with sweet cucumber relish, to name but a few. We tried Sai Oua, or northern spicy Thai pork sausage, and Pad Hoy Lai, or stir-fried clams in Thai herb sauce (Special dishes section at £6.50 and £8.95 respectively) and found the dishes were quite commendable.
The restaurant is in Camden, in zone 2, also offers a reasonably priced Express Lunch Menu for working people between 12.00 and 3.30pm. You can choose from one main course, starts from £5.50 or two courses for £2.00 extra.
The restaurant/café is located near HMV Forum, also known as the London Forum, or sometimes Kentish Town Forum, which is a well-known venue for concerts in this busy part of north London. Parking is easy during the day, so long as you feed the meter. In the evening it is easier, but be careful because the borough of Camden has some of London's busies traffic wardens.
BaanThai also offers takeaway service. Telephone: 020 7485 0152
