There's a persistent rumour that you can't sit down for good Thai food in Hobart (we're talking for aficionados, not a red curry thrown onto a menu). Happily the rumour can be put to rest at Mai Ake Thai in buzzing North Hobart. Thai-owned, the food served is reassuringly authentic, from the steaming jasmine rice through to the choo chee koong, the sweetest of Thai curries, strictly for prawns only and highly addictive. If you're a Hobart-dweller still questioning what Thai food is all about, go for the choo chee, pad see eew (a sweet noodle stir-fry - kids love it) or prawns with cashews as mild but moreish introductions. The menu is child-friendly with vegetarian options and the restaurant is sophisticated in food and decor, with the vibe of an inner-city cafe. Elizabeth Street is peppered with culinary gems, but when a great Thai meal with a couple of glasses of wine is on your mind, then watch the city scurrying home over a hot curry at Mai Ake. Look for the black and white sign just up from Tasma Street.

A smell to die for
This place smells fantastic as you walk past it, I just had to go and try it. The curry was great and the stir fry was good. The service was a little bit of a let down but all-in-all it was a great night out.
