This is our favorite Thai restaurant. If you're familiar with the Provo and Orem area, you'll know that there are quite a few to try, our suggestion would be Thai Village. Recently they opened a new location in Provo, so if you don't want to make the trip up to American Fork, they have one a little closer to home.

Order:

Pad Thai: The mark of a good Thai restaurant is always going to be whether their Pad Thai is worth ordering. Thai Village accomplishes such a feat. For those who don't know what Pad Thai is, it's a noodle dish made with rice noodles, eggs, fish sauce, tamarind sauce, some sort of protein and served with peanuts and a lime. A friend once described it as the cheeseburger of Thai food. I don't think he was too far off. It's hard to mess up such a dish, but it has been done. Fortunately not by Thai Village. The Pad Thai is definitely noteworthy when going to Thai Village.


Massaman Curry: For those curry lovers and even for the skeptics, Massaman Curry would be the way to go. It's so sweet and nutty you can hardly believe it's curry! Made with coconut milk, peanuts, cashews and potatoes and various sweet spices such as cardamom and cinnamon, Massaman Curry is a sweet dish served with rice and certainly an dish one can order with no regrets except for perhaps the little extra loving it will add around the waist when eaten in excess.


Thai Village is a family owned restaurant which means their service is rather personal and attentive. Their decorations are quite beautiful and diverting. You can't help but look around you when sitting in the restaurant. Make Thai Village your next stop if you have Thai food on the mind!
