I took my lovely girlfriend to Bahn Thai restaurant in Cullen Bay for Valentine’s Day. It was my first time and I was quite impressed. Lovely decor and ambience with soft traditional Thai music playing in the background. I quite enjoyed the food, a step up from the fare you get at the take-away Bahn Thai’s.

We ate:

• steamed dim sims
• steamed vegetables with peanut sauce
• fried chicken strips with cashew nuts and
• chu chee barramundi (fish)

My favourite was the chu chee, the sauce was absolutely divine and the barramundi was excellent; it’s my favourite eating fish by far and the chef did it justice.

The dim sims were very tender and yummy, the steamed vegetables could have been cooked a bit longer and the fried chicken got a bit on the tough side after a few helpings.

I’ll be back again for sure.

You can find Bahn Thai at:
62 Marina Boulevard
Cullen Bay, NT 0820
08 8941 5111

Just don’t confuse it with the take-aways at Hibiscus and Palmerston shopping centres.
