Hot Chilli Thai
Thai-ed and tested
A popular Thai restaurant on the Mount Alexander Road strip, Hot Chilli Thai consistently serves up favourites including panang and massaman curries ($15-20), tom yum ($19-22) and pad thai ($15-20). Thai-style stir fries are plentiful with seven options to choose from ($15-22).
I've been coming here for years. The dishes are generous, aromatic and phuket, adventurous as only Thai food can be.
The traditional Thai decor is cheerful as are the staff.
The Moonee Valley area has exploded with new eating haunts in recent years. It's easy to be drawn to this place for the name alone as it is sure to excite any chilli nut. Well worth a visit.
Eat: The dine in menu is vast with your choice of 15 entrees, 23 mains and 7 desserts. First time diners, go for the roti bread with peanut sauce, pad puk with prawns (ask for cashews to be added, trust me) and the chicken panang curry. There's a takeaway menu and for locals residing within 3km, home delivery. Fancy BYO tipple, it's $2 corkage fee per person.
