Paul Milliken visits Nan Thai Buckhead
Good Day Atlanta's Paul Milliken visits Nan Thai Buckhead as all three locations welcome fans from around the world with World Cup-themed specials.
ATLANTA - Now that several matches have been played in Atlanta, you know what the World Cup looks like. And you know what it sounds like, too. But what does the World Cup taste like?
Ask Atlanta’s own legendary Nan Niyomkul!
Niyomkul is the executive chef and owner of Nan Thai Fine Dining, which first opened on Spring Street in Midtown back in 2003. Since then, it’s become renowned as one of the region’s top Thai restaurants, and it led to two more restaurants within the Tamarind Restaurant Group: Nan Thai Buckhead and Tuk Tuk Thai Food Loft. Each of the locations is celebrating the World Cup with a special menu featuring Thai dishes prepared with a twist based on the soccer teams playing here in Atlanta. Oh, and did we mention the World Cup-themed cocktails? Drinks like the Barcelona Bloom and the Desert Moon will have your World Cup running over!
And why is the World Cup so important to the Tamarind Restaurant Group team? Because Nan Niyomkul is a big sports fan, that’s why. So, don’t be surprised if you see the legendary chef and restaurateur decked out in World Cup gear when you see her this summer!
Nan Thai Fine Dining is located at 1350 Spring Street Northwest in Midtown, Nan Thai Buckhead is located at 3050 Peachtree Road Northwest, and Tuk Tuk Thai Food Loft is located at 1745 Peachtree Street Northeast, Suite Y in Midtown.
