The Tamarind
The complex yet balanced flavours at The Tamarind work in perfect harmony and reward with a generous depth of flavour. An insistence on using only the very best locally sourced produce ensures that every dish is fresh and relevant, while classic ingredients such as chilli, garlic, ginger, lemongrass, fish sauce, palm sugar, lime juice and salty sauces provide familiar punch and intrigue.
