Siam Garden, Liverpool

An authentic taste of the Orient can be found a few minutes walk away from the Penny Lane district. Set within spacious and immaculate surroundings, staff serve a selection of banquets in traditional Thai costume. The South East Asian chefs prepare appetising dishes such as Panang beef cooked with a red curry sauce, Siam mixed satay skewer and sizzling beef served with chilli and fresh basil, and Thai style sweet and sour chicken. The meals taste as good as they sound and those who like a more conservative flavour can opt for good old-fashioned apple pie and ice cream for dessert.
