Background

About Thai Zaap

The Story

Thai Zaap is a Thai restaurant in La Nova Esquerra de l'Eixample, on the western side of Barcelona's Eixample. It's a casual, everyday kind of place rather than a special-occasion one, set in a colourful room dressed with carvings and plants.

The Cuisine

The kitchen does familiar Thai cooking: curries and noodle stir-fries, the dishes most people picture when they think Thai. Thai food generally balances sweet, sour, salty and spicy in one plate, and there are vegetarian options on the menu.

The Team

The kitchen sticks to the recognisable Thai repertoire of curries and stir-fries rather than chasing a tasting-menu concept. It's set up for casual eating, with takeout available if you'd rather take it home.
