The kingdom of Thailand is located in the heart of Asia to the South of China and North East of Australia.  Thailand is a tropical country and has a warm climate year round.  This climate helps contribute to the large use of fresh ingredients in Thai cooking.  Some uninformed people will compare Thai cooking to Chinese food, however there are very distinct differences.  These differences are easily seen when comparing Thai food to Chinese food commonly found in America. 

At Mai Thai Cuisine our food is much healthier then most Chinese food found in the area.  We cook in single per person portions made to each order, not large greasy portions that will be placed on a buffet line for long periods of time.  At Mai Thai Cuisine we also never add MSG and alway use the best ingredients we can find.

Here are some of the Benefits of Thai Food:

Heart Healthy- Common ingredients such as chili pepper and coconut are great for the heart.

Immune Boosting- With spices such as turmeric, coriander, galangal, and basil

Cancer Fighting- A recent joint study by Thailand's Kasetsart University and Japan's Kyoto  and Kinki Universities has found that the ingredients in Tom Yum Gung soup are 100 times more effective in inhibiting cancerous tumor growth than other foods

Better Sleep-  Recent studies have shown that consuming chili pepper (fresh or dried) each day helps people fall asleep, and stay asleep longer

And so many other benefits.........................
