Thai Origin

This Thai restaurant ticks all the boxes when it comes to pleasing customers. The location, just off Ken High, is perfect for Kensington brahmins and Notting Hillites, and the smart, modern decor is pleasant and welcoming. If you're seeking casual dining, the upstairs dining room is the choice, while more traditional dining is offered downstairs. The huge menu is a tradition, too. We like the mixed starters because it has everything on our hit parade, followed by the red curry with duck breast or deep-fried tilapia fish, then Thai pancake with ice cream.
