NUR WANITA

Not far from the Jame'Asr Hassanil Bolkiah Mosque, this restaurant offers delicious Thai cuisine from Issan in the north of the country. Som tam salad, chicken stewed in pandan leaves, fish pla ra or with mango and green papaya, khao niao rice or sautéed noodles with Chiang Mai green curry... it's all there. For novices, ask that your dishes not be too spicy. All this can be enjoyed in an elegant setting of exotic woods and touches of jade green or gold in the silks of the seats and curtains.
