Chao-Thai Kitchen and Bar is a Thai restaurant and takeaway at 1484A Dominion Rd, Mount Roskill, Auckland, with a 5.0 Google rating and online ordering for delivery straight to your door. Thai cooking lives on balance — hot, sour, sweet and salty held in check — and a good kitchen builds curries from fresh paste with lemongrass, galangal and lime leaf rather than shortcuts. Heat is usually adjustable, so it pays to say how spicy you like it when you order. Takeaway suits Thai food well: curries and stir-fries travel far better than most dishes, arriving with the sauce intact. Regulars tend to settle on a favourite curry or noodle dish and simply vary the heat. For an easy Thai night in, this Dominion Rd spot in Mount Roskill keeps it a simple online order away.
