Thai-Riffic Mildura

At Thai-Riffic Mildura, the spirit of the land of smiles meets the vastness of Victoria’s edge-of-the-outback setting. Warm, friendly service sets the tone for a meal built on balance: sweet, sour, salty and spicy working in graceful harmony.

The kitchen celebrates classic Thai rhythm and fragrance. Starters might include pla muk tod with herbs, crisp and aromatic, or delicate prawn dumplings with tom yum sauce. From there, the steam of tom yum and the silk of tom kha carry lemongrass, galangal and kaffir lime through every spoonful, delivering brightness without bluster.

Salads such as beef nam tok crackle with lime and herbs, while green and red curries soothe with creamy coconut. Wok-fired staples arrive with swagger: pad krapow, pad Thai and pad see ew, with khao pad for those who love jasmine rice done right. For dessert, think fried banana with ice cream or mango mousse with sweet sticky rice, and to sip, spirits and mixers, plus Thai and international beers and ciders.

Be it a swift lunch or a lingering supper, this is a place to relax, smile and savour. Gather your crew, follow the fragrance, and let Thai-Riffic Mildura turn a simple meal into a small escape.
