This well-known streetfood classic has distinct varieties across different regions of Thailand. Here it is prepared by Chef R in classic Bangkok style with a little twist of island color for a private dinner on the Kohala Coast. Crunchy fresh green papaya, carrots, long beans, cherry tomatoes, peanuts, green and red chili, and a touch of purple radish with a rich, salty-sweet-tangy dressing.
Favorite street food of the masses, this worldwide dish is made here with a special Thai mix of garlic, herbs and spices.
Phanaeng Curry is a sweet and salty Southern Thai specialty influenced by interaction with Malay culture. Peanut flavors pair beautifully with delicious Kauai Shrimp garnished with Kafffir lime leaves and coconut drizzle.

Si Nuan Thai Food has been established 
with the goal of contributing to the world-wide admiration of Thai food. We aim to provide healthy balanced food infused with exciting and beneficial aromatic herbs and spices.
We offer unique and delicious Thai dishes, as well as modern interpretations of rustic specialties from the southern region of Nakorn Si Thamarat. We source almost all of our produce and ingredients fresh from local Big Island providers.
We are avoiding the the common route of bringing staple dishes from Thailand and converting or adapting them, sometimes beyond recognition, to generic foods that won’t scare customers. Instead, we have explored Thai food in it natural and fully authentic form for dishes that in their traditional preparation will delight Big Island taste buds. We serve Thai food as it is served in Thailand, because that is how we know and love it.
