Thai Cuisine @ InAsia

We spent our last dinner in Hua Hin at our Hotel's award winning restaurant InAzia. The restaurant was pretty empty that night with only two tables dining. We figured it maybe because of the low occupancy rate of the Hotel.

Despite having no diners the food we ordered was delicious! Kim, Phin and I ordered a Thai Set Menu while Mike who wanted to go light ordered Pad Thai.

Mike's Pad Thai was excellent as it wasn't too soggy or oily. There was a very strong flavor from the egg and the use of grounded peanuts gave it an added depth in flavor compared to other Pad Thai's I had.

Our Thai set menu was excellent as well. From the first dish till the last we had no complaints whatsoever. Favorites of mine included the Pomelo Salad, Mild Beef Curry and Mango with Sticky Rice.

To sum it up this is a really good restaurant. It is a pity that most of the people that dine here are mainly hotel guests. Service was friendly and efficient and our meal cost us THB 2211 for 4 people including a 25% discount as a Starwood Privilege Member.
