Restaurant review -
Locals have the restaurant's chef and director, Julia, to thank for introducing colourful tastes to the block with her spicy blend of Thai and Burmese cuisines. The real River Kwai borders the regions of Thailand and Burma, and the restaurant sets out to achieve a similar aim, presenting a menu that artfully bridges the two cuisines.
Restaurant review -
Set in a strip mall along a busy main road in Clayton, River Kwai emerges as one of the only fine dining options in the vicinity, flanked as it is by a bleak combination of convenience stores and fish 'n' chip haunts. The restaurant's decor of deep red walls, Thai wooden carvings and ornate wall hangings provides an exotic escape from the traffic-laden street.
