Tom Phat - South East Asian

Standing strong on Sydney Road since 2004, Tom Phat gives Brunswick locals a food experience that won't quickly be forgotten. After a long day, you'll find this joint full of people looking for a bite and a bevvy – and there's nothing quite like it! Maybe it's the call of Thailand that makes people feel like they're on holiday with every visit.

Let's get straight into the important stuff – the food. Tom Phat knows exactly how to breathe life into conventional Asian dishes and serve them up to a hungry crowd. And there are plenty of meals to choose from – trust us!

If you crave bold flavours, look no further! Ever had Pad Ka Prao? This stir-fried dish with chillies, thai basil, and ground Angus beef meat is an explosion of taste you won't forget. They've also got chilli jam stir fry with chicken or prawn, cashews, makrut lime and stir fried seasonal vegetables. Wow!

And the deliciousness gets kicked up a notch with rendang beef; this slow-cooked beef in a rich, flavourful coconut curry is sure to satisfy your cravings. There are also some beautiful sides to choose from on the menu – a personal favourite is the crystal prawn dumplings with Chinese black vinegar and chilli oil!

Tom Phat also has a great range of drinks adding a decent-sized cherry on top. Boasting a selection of red, white and fizzy wine, there's a match for all the flavours going on with their terrific dishes. And there's plenty of other cocktails if you just can't resist.

Now all you have to do is gather the crew with your special buddies and head to Tom Phat for a night freakishly tastebud tantalising dishes and cocktails. All aboard and bon voyage!
