The beloved UK-based eatery has launched its first international outpost in Dubai.
If you know your pad see ew from your pad kee mao, you’ll be pleased to know that Rosa’s Thai is now open in Dubai. For the uninitiated, the popular Thai restaurant already operates 33 branches in the UK, choosing The Walk in JBR as the site of its first international outpost.
Incidentally, Rosa’s Thai has humble beginnings rooted in authenticity, starting as a market stall in London’s Brick Lane in 2007 where chef Saiphin Moore – who grew up in northern Thailand – served her time-honoured family recipes to hungry lunchtime crowds. Just a year later, Saiphin and her entrepreneur husband Alex opened the first Rosa’s Thai restaurant in London’s Spitalfields, just around the corner from the market stall. The concept quickly became synonymous with simple, fresh and authentic Thai food, with restaurants popping up in cities all over the UK (Liverpool, Leeds, Manchester and Birmingham included).
Combining modern London with the heart and soul of Bangkok, Rosa’s Thai Dubai is a 90-cover restaurant open for lunch and dinner, seven days a week. Guests can expect a laidback, and homely vibe where they can experience classic dishes made from scratch, using hero ingredients from Thailand. Rest assured, there are no pre-cooked dishes here – just authentic food and true Thai hospitality.
Dubai diners will be treated to signature dishes made using the best of Thai produce, including chilli pastes from a husband-and-wife team in the Huai Yod district of Thailand and rice noodles from a third-generation family business that has made noodles for over 80 years. Menu highlights include Thai classics such as pad Thai and green curry, as well as Rosa’s cult favourites ranging from red pineapple curry to stir-fried aubergine with yellow bean sauce, chilli, soy sauce and sweet basil. The menu also offers plenty of meat-free options for vegetarian diners, from fluffy sweetcorn patties with kaffir lime to a rich red curry with bamboo shoots and sweet basil.
