Muang Thai Restaurant
"Muang Thai" in Thai language means "Thailand." But, in this case, it is the name of one of Brighton's popular Thai restaurants. This restaurant serves authentic Thai food using traditional spices and the same ingredients used in Thailand. For appetizers, why not try Laab (a spicy pork dish) or som tam (spicy papaya salad). Entrees include such Thai delicacies as Tom Yum Gai (chicken in coconut soup) and Kaeng Keow Wahn (Thailand's most famous green curry dish). Muang Thai's extensive menu also includes fish, beef, shrimp and squid dishes, as well as a variety of vegetarian choices. Finish up your meal with a choice of traditional Thai desserts. Typical Thai beers such as Singha, Chang and Tiger are available, along with fresh fruit juices, wine and coffee drinks. A healthy and low-fat Thai dinner is perfect after a day out cycling one of Brighton's bike trails.

Sawadee Thai Restaurant
"Sawadee" is Thai language for "hello," and this is one restaurant to which you may want to extend that greeting. Located close to the oceanfront in Brighton, Sawadee Thai serves Thai cuisine for your taste. If you're not a spicy food fan, the restaurant will recommend a slightly spicy dish. But if you think you can handle authentic Thai taste, that kind of fire can be arranged too. Typical dishes include Chicken Satay (chicken on a skewer with peanut sauce), Tom Yum Geung (spicy shrimp soup) or Kaeng Paed Pet Yang (ducky in red coconut soup curry). Save room for dessert too, especially if you like bananas, as the Kleuay Tord (fried bananas with ice cream) is delicious.
