A Thai restaurant based in Seaton Devon. We offer a delicious range of authentic Thai dishes. Taste of Thai on 18 Fore Street, Seaton is run by Seaton resident Steve Carter and his wife Kee.
Kee is head chef of the 22-seater, sit in restaurant which also offers takeaway.
Food is cooked from scratch at the restaurant to order to tailor all tastebuds.
Green Curry is mild, fragrant and creamy. It's green colour comes from fresh green chilies. The curry paste is made by combining ingredients coriander, lemongrass, garlic, ginger, kaffir lime leaves and fish sauce and coconut milk.
Red curry is mild, pungent with earthy flavours. It's red colour comes from dried red chillies. Coconut milk is combined with curry paste, including garlic, spices, galangal, and shrimp paste along with the dried red chilies.
Panang curry is richer and creamier than the traditional red curry. This kind of consistency in Panang curry is achieved by using coconut cream instead of coconut milk, which is much thicker and creamier.
Tom Yum Soup is bold yet light, tart, salty and citrusy, bursting with layers of flavour from the lemongrass, garlic, galangal, kaffir lime leaves, lime juice, and fish sauce along with tender juicy shrimp and mushrooms.
Pad Thai is characterized by rich, vibrant flavours. The basic ingredients in a traditional Pad Thai are rice noodles stir-fried with tofu, eggs, and a sauce made with tamarind paste, fish sauce, dried shrimp, garlic, chilies, and palm sugar.
Steve Carter and his wife Kee decided to enter the catering industry during the 2020 lockdown, they were offering takeaway Thai food from their home to residents in Seaton. Towards the end, they were getting so many orders, they had to turn some away.
They decided to open the Taste of Thai Restaurant and took over the former Kathys Wild Caper in Fore Street.
Steve Carter said: “It was clear they would have to expand the business. And the cause of this ever-increasing popularity? Kee’s traditional Thai cooking which is tantalisingly tasty.
“Wonderful dinner, great food, attentive hosts. Will definitely go back. Try it out, you wont be disappointed.”
“Really enjoyed our takeaway. So lucky to have authentic Thai food on our doorstep. What a great find.”
“Fantastic value for money with good size portions. Our meals were absolutely delicious, so tasty and full of flavour. We tried, red curry, green curry, Penang and drunken spaghetti noodles, impossible to pick a favourite!”
"Visited tonight for our anniversary, we had the mixed starter followed by a Thai red curry with jasmine rice and a prawn pad Thai. The flavours were wonderful we enjoyed every mouthful. We will be back very soon to try some more dishes.”
“Kee’s food is consistently amazing and she’s so accommodating with dietary preferences and needs. Very friendly and helpful service. Can’t praise it enough 10/10.”
