Auckland’s Massive Thai Fusion Seafood Platter | Thaiger ⭐️7/10
If you’re after a fun, vibrant Thai dining experience with drama—Thaiger in Grey Lynn is your spot! 🇹🇭 This Thai fusion restaurant nails the ambiance hard: the ceiling is draped with lush, leafy tropical plants 🌿, making you feel like you’re dining deep in a jungle oasis—so cool and immersive! First up, we ordered their signature Grill Skewer Rack 🍢—juicy grilled pork skewers hanging from a wooden frame, which looked so impressive on the table! The smoky, savory aroma hit us as soon as it arrived, and it paired perfectly with an ice-cold beer 🥂—total crowd-pleaser for sharing! Then came the star of the show: the MASSIVE Seafood Platter 🦞🤯 It’s a feast for both eyes and taste buds—loaded with a whole crispy sweet-and-sour snapper 🐟, tender squid rings, golden fried prawns 🦐, crispy shrimp rolls, zesty green papaya salad 🥗, and fluffy coconut rice 🍚. The flavors are pure Southeast Asian joy: bright tangy, subtle sweetness, and satisfying crunch—each bite has layers! We spotted other tables digging into their Pineapple Curry 🍍, and it looked insane—but we were already stuffed to the brim and couldn’t fit another bite (next time for sure! 😋). For dessert, we went classic with Mango Sticky Rice 🥭—creamy coconut sauce drizzled over ripe mango and glutinous rice, the perfect sweet ending to our spicy feast. Overall, Thaiger isn’t “authentic” Thai—but it’s so much fun! The vibe is lively, almost like a themed restaurant, and it’s ideal for groups of friends looking to have a (lively) night with delicious food. 7/10 for the vibe, portion size, and flavor—worth a visit for the experience! #bearznrabbit #aucklandeats #AucklandFood #Auckland #food #NewZealand #NZLife #nzeats #ThaiFoodAuckland #SeafoodPlatter #GreyLynnEats #ThaiFusion #MangoStickyRice #FoodieAuckland
