Reviews on Thai food in Turnhout, Antwerp Province, Belgium. Turnhout (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈtʏrnɦʌut]) is a Belgian municipality located in the Flemish province of Antwerp. The municipality comprises only the city of Turnhout proper. On January 1, 2015, Turnhout had a total population of 42,637. The total area is 56.06 km² which gives a population density of 835.5 inhabitants per km². The agglomeration, however, is much larger, accounting up to 81,473 inhabitants. Turnhout is known for its playing card industry, as it houses the head office of the world's largest manufacturer of playing cards, Cartamundi. Turnhout is also the capital of the administrative district with the same name. The Turnhout city council often promotes the city as "the capital of the Kempen area". This designation is entirely unofficial, since the Kempen area is far larger than the Turnhout district and does not form an administrative unit.

We have had excellent Thai food at many place ps and what this restaurant served us was definitely of poor quality. We ordered a vegetable soup with chicken tha5 had way too much sugar. Next was Thai red curry with chicken and the curry was really sweet too. The taste was nothing like a typical red curry. Even store-bought red curry paste tastes way better than what was served. The last order was Phad Thai which was basically an oily noodles served with ketchup probably. Horrible experience for us!

Tonight I ordered some Thai food to be delivered from this restaurant. I had two dishes: a curry and some noodles. The bill came down to â¬33, which is already quite expensive given the very mediocre food and small portions that I got.When the delivery guy finally arrived after more than an hour, he couldn't give me any change on two notes of â¬20. I had to either pay him â¬40 or not eat, which I then very grudgingly did.I then called the restaurant to complain, to get my â¬7 back, but the owner was not helpful at all. He hardly spoke Dutch, so it was very difficult to communicate with him, and as far as I could tell, all he was willing to do to compensate me was â¬7 off on my next order, as if I'm *ever* going to order there again...The sad thing is, when this restaurant was still called Phocha, under different owners, it was really good. It was expensive, but well worth the premium. With the new owners, it's just expensive with crappy food and they apparently even have the nerve to outright steal from their customers. I know â¬7 isn't the end of the world, but it's the principle of the matter.Daishi Sushi... never again.

Had arrived in Turnhout after a 15 hour coach trip from uk , so was feeling tired and fractious. Only decided on Thai after ruling out the tourist traps and finding the other restaurants were not open for another hour, so my expectations were not high. An hour later after one of the best red curries I've eaten( and I've had a lot of them), washed down with a pint of Belgian beer, I was a very happy person. The restaurant is fairly basic, but it is cool and airy and has a good position on the corner of the market square, ideal for people watching. Staff were friendly and the food was very good. Just the job if you're tired of Moules et frites.

Restaurant came recommended by a friend and it turned out to be much better than expected.The menu lists many authentic Thai dishes, something very rare in this area. The restaurant web site contains a complete list of what they have to offer, so I won't bother repeating that information.On my request the spicyness was toned down to levels that are bearable for western European tongues, but it's possible to discuss that with the cook herself. The result was a set of dishes that was relatively spicy, yet still allowed to taste the actual ingredients.
