Curry is our specialty
All of the curry dishes served at Racha Thai & Asian Kitchen are prepared, step by step, fresh, in house. Our curry is the most flavorful because our chef handpicks all of the ingredients to assure the highest level of freshness. In our recipes, each curry type is pre-paired with a specific kind of meat as each curry has its own distinctive taste when combined with meat. Our team of chefs have tasted every dish over and over again, until they are confident that every customer will only get pleasure from their recipes. Ingredients are combined and slow cooked with a meat selection in advance since curry becomes more and more delicious after the flavors have blended and bonded together.

Thai Food:
Over the past 20 years or so, Thai food has become increasingly popular worldwide, especially in the USA and here in the Pacific Northwest. More and more people are enjoying the variety of Thai cuisine and the intriguing flavors found in Thai and other Asian dishes. It is that variety and special flavors that you will discover and enjoy at Racha Thai & Asian Kitchen. When you do, please know that it did not happen by accident. Here’s why…
In preparing to open Racha Thai & Asian Kitchen at Westfield Southcenter Mall, I took extra time to travel around Thailand. My objective was to find the best and most famous dishes of each town and region that I visited. My search took me from Bangkok north up to Mae Sai near the border with Burma, then northeast to the Thailand-Laos border, and then south to Had Yai and Songkla near the Thailand-Malaysia border.
From place to place, I talked to people about the foods of the area and asked them where I could find the best and most famous dishes in their town. From humble street-sidewalk venders to big restaurants, I compared and selected the best recipes. But, I did not stop there…I also recruited the best chefs to come join our team here at Racha Thai & Asian Kitchen to cook the best foods!
During my journey, I discovered the many great local foods that I now present to you. I also came to realize that Thailand is at the hub of many great Asian foods. Many foods of Thailand’s neighbors were well-known and popular with Thai people. So, rather than leave those recipes behind, I decided to bring the best of them to our menu for you to enjoy alongside our Thai dishes.
Fortunately (although it would be enjoyable), you do not have to spend two months like I did exploring Thailand to find the best and most famous foods it has to offer. You can simply sit back and let my team of chefs, led by Chef Deang, present you with what we believe to be the best selection of foods from the Northern, Northeastern, Central and Southern regions of Thailand, and a few from its neighbors, that you will find anywhere.
