Located in the Milkyway Building on Arnaiz Avenue, Makati; Azuthai serves home-style Thai cuisine prepared by Chefs Tip and Bow from Phuket, Thailand following their own family recipes.
a lunch date at AzuthaiThe staffs warmly welcomed us. The place looks like more of a hotel ambiance. A bit dark lang inside and even with the chandelier, i think kulang pa dun yung source of light for taking photos. I chose to stay near the window glasses nalang. Ganun kahalaga ang lightning sa photos. Ü
Of all the Thai food I've tasted, this really is my favorite.
Yam Pla Duk FooCrispy Catfish Salad - green mango, peanuts, mint, lime dressing
Until now, Im still bragging the brilliance of this combination. Ang sarap! But Benjarong of Dusit's version is yummier. Ibang level na yung Dusit's Benjarong kasi it's originally a Thai Hotel na may branch sa Makati. The chefs there are native Thai. So for Azuthai's version, panalo na din to.
Pad ThaiThai Style Fried Noodles
After trying out many versions, this is time I realized I dont like my Pad Thai with egg. Nonetheless, Azuthai's version has a rich taste. But again, it fall short of Benjarong's version. Ibang level yung sarap dun.
But this Azuthai dish really stands out:
Massaman Gaeh
Massaman Lamb Curry with Shallots, Potatoes, Peanuts
After every bite, I cant help myself but say: sobrang sarap nito! The lamb is super soft, it melts in your mouth. The sauce is thick. Spiciness comes perfect. This dish is very flavorful. A winner!
And a good thing to end this lunch is to try out Thai's local beer.
Drinking beer at lunchtime after my shift- not a very wise idea.. Ü
Singha - local Thai beer
Tastes like SMB's pilsen. I think it's good, sanay lang siguro yung taste buds ko sa SanMig Light.
Overall, I enjoyed this Azuthai experience. Bit expensive for a weekend lunch. Im just lucky this meal came free!

kelan birthday mo chyng? magkalapit kayo ni dyanie? :)
hmmm... cno kaya c "thanks to YOU!" :)
Dalawang bagay Chyng, natutuwa ako na isa sa favorite mo ang catfish salad dahil ako ang nag convince sayo na i-try. Pangalawa, dapat next time na mag thai fud ka, ask the waiter na add more spicy..kasi naniniwala ako na sa Thai, x10 ang ang level nila dun. =)
foodtrip ang dating ah... sarap!
sarap naman! =)
haven't tried azuthai yet. i heard it's manned by chef gamboa, am i right?
we're opposite in this, chyng.
tina and i (and i'm sure gabby too) are not partial with thai food.
pero kung libre siguro, why not. haha! yakagin mo si rob (sensory replays) to treat us to azuthai or benjarong, haha! he'll kill me for this.
Thanks a lot for these tips! I've been wanting to try a lot of Thai food. Any recommendations for the spicy and very spicy ones?
By the way, were you able to go to MAFBEX last weekend?
.. i'm into spicy food basta wag lang sobra. dapat yung foodie treat ko sa inyo ni docgelo, sa iba naman. =)
the massamahn gaeh looks good. hmmm... are you also into indian food?
ayan na. namiss ko bigla yung hito. sarap kasi. di mo aakalaing catfish. ramdam ko pa yung asim...pero itong wine na to. naku, kailangang ma-experience din yan. hehe
ay--beer pala di wine. sandali lang---BAT DI NAKAMENTION KUNG SINU YUN us?????hehe
ang linaw na nga e---anu pa ba gusto mong light? peace.
hay wala bang diet tips naman? puro nalang food trip e. :p
kakainis nga dko naman matikman yang mga yan puro kabsa, broasted & shawarma lang marami dito e. hehe

@kuya,

delete the 1st comment chyng. Sori! :(
We're eyeing for thai foods pero pag andun na, parang hesitant kmi so we usually ended up with Korean cuisines. We still want to try thai though. :)
I love Thai food as long as it's not too spicy. But I second the motion to Dong's recommendation: try Indian food naman next time kasi ibang-iba.
uy belated...i also love thai food. i began loving spicy food when i visited BKK :P
Naku, Chyng, maloloka ka sa Bangkok! Puro food-trip lang kami dun that we weren't able to visit the tourist-y places, pagkain lang talaga ang inatupag namin! I ate so much in five days, grabe!
And nakarami rin ako ng Singha beer, although I preferred yung Singha light.
We got back this morning, but mabigat pa ang pakiramdam ko, hehe!
The orchids in Thai establishments are the key. Nice shots! Your P & S is something.
Yep, I was at MAFBEX. Nakabili ako ng Korean Noodles, Korean Ice Cream. Pero ang highlight duon e naging friends ko ang isang Malaysian family na exhibitors duon. Binigyan ako ng samutsaring libreng pagkain. Beef rendang powder GET. :D
sarap ng ng nasa pictures..
Thanks for sharing this Chyng! I so so so so love Thai food even if I can't afford to dine at thai restos sometimes. Hahaha. I will definitely try this one out especially yung Massaman Gaeh. With your description, it seems like the kind of food that I will enjoy. :D
naks! sino yung "us"? ikaw ha! :D
first, I like the shots.there is something na kakaiba sa pagkakuha ng pic.YOu are very good in taking close up pic I don't know the term.
second, I like thai food. I'm here in Abu Dhabi I would recommend try Arabic food or Indins.Yong spicyness ibang level talaga.
I add you to my favorites and check it out in my blog list You are few among my list. Keep posting. https://rommeldiamante.blogspot.com

gusto ko ng mga thai boys hahahaha
imperness mukhang masarap nga ang mga food... ma-try nga minsan... pag may manlilibre na hahahahaha
parang sarap sarap ng mga kakanin diyan!!! naglalaway ako
Hmmm. This restaurant seems to have more varied fare than what we have in our Thai restaurants here :) I know that Thai cuisine truly is rich in variety. I wish I could try more authentic dishes
Azuthai is probably the best Thai resto on the metro :)
