About
At thalee ling, the sweet, spicy, and sour flavors that define Thai cuisine are carefully balanced with the aromas of fresh herbs and seasonal ingredients sourced directly from producers. Respecting the history and culinary traditions of Thailand, the restaurant presents modern Thai cuisine that combines Japanese sensibilities with French techniques through a seasonal tasting menu.
Leading the kitchen is Chef Arai, whose culinary background is rooted in French cuisine. His approach seeks harmony between the depth created by the aromas and fermentation of Thai cooking and the delicacy of Japan’s seasonal ingredients. Carrying forward the restaurant’s long‑standing “japa‑thai” philosophy, he expresses Thai culinary traditions through his own perspective while showcasing the richness of Japanese ingredients.
Seasonal courses may be paired with wines selected by the sommelier, while non‑alcoholic pairings are also available. The cuisine is designed to be approachable even for those unfamiliar with Thai food, while offering fresh discoveries to those who already appreciate its flavors.
