NYC’s 4.9-Rated Thai Food That Made Me Devour Everything! 🇹🇭🍚

Visited this highly-rated Thai spot near the Upper East Side museums over the weekend. The restaurant is spacious and beautifully decorated—and every dish was so delicious I couldn’t stop eating… even if it meant a major carb coma afterward! 😴💫 👉 Ka-Prow Stewed Beef (Matata’s Pick!) Tender beef and tendon simmered in aromatic Thai basil sauce—spicy, savory, and perfect mixed with rice. Watch out for those Thai chilies though! 🌶️🍖 👉 Goong Karee (Matata’s Pick!) Rich yellow curry loaded with coconut flavor and plump, juicy shrimp. So creamy and satisfying over steamed rice—a true comfort dish! 🥥🦐 👉 Seafood Pad Khee-Mao Drunken noodles packed with mussels, shrimp, and egg—wok-fried to smoky, fragrant perfection. A hearty and authentic portion! 🍝🔥 👉 Squid Kai-Kem Crispy squid rings stir-fried in savory salted egg yolk sauce—unique and tasty! 🦑✨ To drink: ☕ Thai Coffee – smooth, lightly sweet, and great for a post-meal pick-me-up. 🍹 Can Smash – a plum-forward cocktail with beautiful presentation and refreshing flavor. 📍 Tha Phraya 1553 2nd Ave, New York, NY 💵 ~$70 per person #NYCEats #ThaiFood #UES #ComfortFood #CurryLover #NYCFoodie #SpicyAndSweet #MatataEats #MuseumDayEats #CarbComa #FoodieApproved #NYCDining
