Maybe you can’t squeeze in a trip to Thailand but with these Thai restaurants, you can satisfy those cravings with some delicious Thai food right here in Hong Kong!

Thai food offers a unique combination of ingredients, fresh herbs and spices not found in other cuisines. With a range of distinct flavours, a balance of sweet, sour, spicy and salty, the whole family is sure to find a dish to suit their palate. Most kids will love a Khao Pad (fried rice) or Pad See Ew or Pad Thai noodles – all typically served with a protein of choice and vegetables (yay!). For the more adventurous eaters, a Tom Kha Gai (coconut milk soup) or a Massaman Curry (a no-go for those with a nut allergy though!) are both hearty and delicious. Of course, the sweet and creamy dessert of Mango Sticky Rice cannot be missed!

Here’s a guide to the best Thai restaurants in Hong Kong that are child-friendly. Whether that be they are easily accessed with a stroller, have convenient parking nearby, have high chairs or perhaps are located close to some of the fabulous family-friendly attractions Hong Kong has to offer, gather up the troops and grab a small piece of the Land of Smiles this weekend.
