Kolae

Thai restaurant · Borough

"At Kolae, the focus is on southern Thai flavours and marinated things cooked over a very hot coconut. The slick, three-floor spot in Borough Market suits all kinds of get-togethers, but the kitchen counter is where the action is and where this place feels most alive. Flames shoot out beneath woks, mussel skewers are expertly grilled, and you won’t be able to resist having one more mini martini. Bigger groups will want to take a room upstairs to devour deep-fried prawn heads in privacy, but wherever you sit at Kolae, you’ll happily find the food is your focus." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing
