Thai food is highly spicy. Unless you specify your requirement of non – spicy food, you are likely to get fire in your mouth. Coconut curries are very popular in the South of Thailand.
Yellow Squid Curry (Pat Gaeng Pla Muek) is a popular dish. Chicken Curry ( Gaeng Gai )is very tasty and palatable if you can put up with some amount of spice.
There are several tasty soups in the Thai menu. Tom Yum is the most famous soup with Lemon grass followed probably by Tom Kha which is practically Tom Yum with coconut milk essence.
