A message from Nay...
"""
Growing up in Si Sa Ket, North-Eastern Thailand, I was surrounded by endless rice farms, with life always revolving around family. In this region of Thailand, food is what brings everyone together - our cooking is all about bold flavours, and no meal is complete without warm sticky rice.
Eventually, I moved to the bustling capital of Bangkok to work in hotels and hospitality, which led to working on cruise ships and sailing around the world. I finally settled in Surbiton in 2007, where I raised my three children and opened Nay Thai in 2013.
We absolutely love Surbiton and its community, and we thank them for supporting us from the very beginning. Whether you're here for your favourite comfort food or catching up with friends, there is a space for everyone at Nay Thai.
Lots of Love,
Nay xx

About our kitchen...
At the heart of our kitchen are Jimmy and Na, a married duo who have spent decades perfecting their recipes. Na came to the UK from Northeastern Thailand in 1989 and has over 30 years of experience working in Thai kitchens, while Jimmy has a Bangkok upbringing and a background cooking in Hong Kong and Macau. They love what they do, and they cook for the restaurant exactly the way they cook at home. If you want to eat like the chefs, try Jimmy’s favourites: the Green Curry and Weeping Tiger Steak, or go for Na's top picks: the traditional Isaan-style Som Tam or a popular Pad Thai.
