Thai eatery wins official seal of approval
The Thai Rice House is listed in the "Thai Select" program run by Thailand's department of international trade promotion, which certifies authentic Thai cuisine. Executive chef Vicharn Phumsap has been working on Thai cuisine for more than four decades. His curry crab is his signature dish, and it goes well with rice. Steamed fish with lime is another highlight, as the pepper, fish sauce and garlic, together with the lime's sourness, go perfectly with the fish.
