Thai Restaurants in the Hartford, CT

Thai food, or the cuisine of Thailand, is a relatively new addition to the American culinary landscape. In the early 1990’s Thai restaurants began springing up in neighborhoods from coast to coast, offering tasty new dishes and flavors to hungry diners.

One of the mainstays of Thai cuisine is Pad Thai, which is Thai Rice Noodles, with Chicken, Shrimp or Beef, vegetables, Tofu, Scrambled Egg, Chili paste, Bean Sprouts and ground Peanuts. The peanuts lend a remarkable flavor to the dish. Many Thai foods utilize Peanuts, especially in Sauces. While not all Thai dishes are hot and spicy, many are.
