It's a crowd-puller of a restaurant and quite rightly so.

The UAE's Thai food scene is way more varied than you might expect. Dubai's best Thai restaurants offer the staples, from street food favourites to classic dishes such as tom yum, pad thai, green curry, satay et al.

Out of them, the Tong Thai restaurant, located at the gorgeous JW Marriott Marquis Hotel Dubai along Business Bay, is a standout.
