To whet your appetite, here are some interesting facts about a few of our Fall-Winter Specials.
The cuisine of Southeast Asia has always made generous use of fish, second only to rice in importance. In this monsoon-drenched region, fish can be found everywhere. In fact, when floodwaters pour through the village streets, it’s not uncommon to see children gathering up fish for the family’s meals.
Thai Bloom welcomes the Pacific Northwest rainy season with several fish specials. For example, the bottom-feeding catfish finds a delightful new home atop a mixture of baby greens, red bell pepper, green apples, onions, cilantro cashew nuts and fried dry chilis in our Catfish Salad. This dish is drizzled with a traditional Thai salad dressing.
For diners seeking an upscale seafood experience, what could be better than Lobster Tail with Garlic Noodles? With stir-fried egg noodles with garlic sauce, paprika, and black peppers and a bed of steamed bok choy, onion, and bell peppers, our lobster tail is truly mouth-watering. Crispy egg noodles provide an extra taste treat.
Hainanese Chicken and Rice (Khao Man Gai) originated in Southern China and evolved into a famous Thai street food. It’s comprised of steamed chicken sliced and served over steamed rice cooked in chicken broth, garlic, and ginger
Finally, we’ve created a wonderful Thai version of a classic American dish – Grilled New York Strip Steak. We serve our 10-ounce portion of prime beef steak with peppercorn sauce, bell peppers, basil, wild ginger, and kaffir lime leaf.
We are looking forward to seeing you!
