Top choice in Alice Springs
You won't believe you're in the outback when you try the fab Thai- and Indian-influenced cuisine at this stylish restaurant. The delicate Thai starters are a real triumph, as are the seafood dishes, particularly the Hanuman prawns. Although the menu is ostensibly Thai, there are enough Indian dishes to satisfy a curry craving.
There are several vegetarian offerings and a good wine list. If you've been to the Darwin Hanuman, you'll find the menu slightly more limited in Alice.
