Thai Cooking can be readily envisioned as a work of art. The people have a natural and creative sense of beauty, and express it in many ways. Both men and women learn to create beautifully shaped fruits and vegetables, carving them with all the skill of a talented artisan.

 

The appeal of much of the Thai Cuisine owes a great deal to the spices, herbs and seasonings grown under the brilliant skies of Thailand. Some visitors have heard, erroneously, that all Thai food is hot or extremely hot! Although some Thai dishes are quite spicy, far more dishes are completely mild, and require no adjustment whatsoever. With its evocative flavors of lemon grass, sweet basil, and coconut milk, Thai food is the result of subtle blending of herbs and spices and the incorporation of the crispy freshness of stir-fried vegetables, curries, and rich sauces.

 

At Aleenta we use only fresh produce from the local markets – it gives our Chef, immense opportunities to create an extraordinary array of distinctive dishes, from pleasantly mild to intensely spicy!
