Thai food isn’t as readily available in Manila compared to more common cuisines such as Chinese or Japanese. Even with the increasingly more adventurous palate Filipinos now have, we still have tons of room for less familiar Asian cuisines in the country. The good news? This hidden gem in Tomas Morato can easily soothe all your cravings.

Thaipan is a homegrown restaurant in the heart of Tomas Morato. It prides itself in offering authentic Thai cuisine while utilizing both imported and local ingredients.
Owner Cora Padiernos was inspired to create a concept that would deliver Thailand’s exotic combination of sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and spicy flavors.
This hidden gem has become a popular dining destination since 2010 for its soothing, nature-inspired ambience. It’s perfect for intimate gatherings as they have private function rooms that can accommodate 12pax and 30pax respectively. Al fresco dining is also available for 40-50pax.
