Centrally located in District 1, Golden Elephant specializes in true Thai cuisine, without the dozens of hot peppers you’d find in a Bangkok street meal. Over a sweet and chilled Thai iced tea, start your meal with an inexpensive appetizer of deep fried pork or beef served with chili sauce. Then choose from an extensive menu of favorite mains including phla goong (Thai style prawn salad), tom kha gai (coconut milk soup with chicken), and plat thap thim dad diaw (deep fried red snapper with spicy mango salad).
Plenty of vegetarian choices are available like the panang tau hu (fried tofu with panang curry sauce) or the po pia thod (crunchy deep fried spring rolls served with sweet plum sauce). The dishes from northeast Thailand contain fresh peppers to clear the senses, without rendering them inedible. Noodles, rice, curries, stir-fries, and a good range of seafood make up most of the menu, and are prepared with 65popular traditional Thai flavors by the Golden Elephant’s skilled chef. The great variety of warm and sweet-savory soups, enduringly desired in Thailand, all make the grade. A whole page dedicated to fresh salads like the Thai style spicy green papaya salad with salted crab, make certain those looking for lighter fare find something too. Authentic Thai desserts include khao niew ma muang (sweet sticky rice with mango), and for durian lovers: khao niew turien (sweet sticky rice infused with durian). Charming and competent service is provided by a staff who dishes up plates, clay pots, and glasses of Singha beer with a smile. The warm yellow walls and cool tiled floors of the dining room create a comfortable and inviting place to dine with friends. Open for lunch and dinner every day, the Golden Elephant also provides free delivery for orders over 100,000 vnd.
