Nara Thai Introduces Curry Shop, A Menu Inspired by Thailand’s Regional Curry Traditions

Developed through a close collaboration between Nara Thai’s culinary teams in Thailand and India, Curry Shop brings together authentic regional recipes, traditional techniques and thoughtfully sourced ingredients to showcase a side of Thai cuisine that extends far beyond its most familiar dishes. 

Mumbai and Delhi NCR, 7th August 2026 – Nara Thai introduces Curry Shop, a new menu centred on Thailand’s regional curry traditions, available from 7th August 2026. Inspired by recipes from across Southern and Northern Thailand, the menu brings together curries, noodle bowls, small plates and desserts that reflect the distinct flavours, ingredients and cooking styles of each region. At a time when Thai cuisine is often defined by a handful of familiar dishes, Curry Shop draws attention to the country’s lesser known regional specialities. 

The menu has been co-created by Nara Thai’s Executive Chef, who flew to India from Thailand to work alongside the brand’s India culinary team. Traditional recipes, regional expertise and signature curry pastes produced in Thailand form its foundation, while the India team has worked to ensure the menu resonates with local diners without compromising its authenticity. Rooted in the shared appreciation for spices, herbs and layered flavours that connect Indian and Thai cuisines, every dish stays true to its regional identity while respecting authentic Thai recipes. The menu has been thoughtfully presented to introduce regional Thai flavours in a way that is approachable for Indian diners.

To preserve the character of each recipe, Nara Thai continues to source its signature curry pastes and sauces from Thailand, while fresh herbs, aromatics and seasonal produce are sourced locally wherever appropriate. Rather than altering traditional recipes, the menu focuses on techniques, flavour balance and ingredients that define regional Thai cooking. Each region of Thailand tells a different culinary story. Southern curries are bold and aromatic, enriched with fresh turmeric and coconut, while Northern recipes highlight fragrant herbs and comforting spice blends. Curry Shop brings these distinctive regional identities together in one menu.

The menu opens with small plates such as Lotus & Betel Leaves with Thai Herbs, Hat Yai Fried Chicken Wings with Spicy Sauce, Dried Fried Prawns with Sweet Tamarind Sauce and Fried Pomfret with Chilli Lime Sauce, each reflecting regional recipes that have long been part of Thailand’s everyday food culture. The curry selection features dishes such as the Southern Curry Bowl, Tom Yum Noodles, Massaman Potato Curry with Smoked Coconut Rice, Massaman Lamb Curry with Smoked Coconut Rice, and Seabass Fillet in Yellow Curry, each showcasing distinct regional recipes and flavour profiles from across Thailand. Desserts include Pandan Toast, Coconut & Pandan Pudding, and Kaffir Lime Milk Cake, while the cocktail programme offers Khao Niao Bliss, Green Tuk Tuk, Siam Spice, Coriander Coast, Karabi Kiss, and Som-O Saza, crafted with ingredients including pandan, kaffir lime, Thai basil, mango, pomelo, and coconut to complement the menu.

“Ask someone in Thailand what curry tastes like, and the answer will depend entirely on where they grew up. That’s what fascinated us while creating Curry Shop. The menu brings together recipes from different parts of the country, each shaped by its own ingredients, traditions and way of building flavour. Our role wasn’t to reinvent them, it was to respect them and present them as they were meant to be experienced. ” says Chef JC, Global Executive Chef, Nara Thai.

Curry Shop will be available from 7th August – 30th September at Nara Thai Worli and Golf Course Road, [Available all days, Lunch & Dinner].
