Rosa’s

Since launching in 2008, Rosa’s has established itself as a local haunt with a delightful homely feel & a reassuring sense of familiarity – the pillar-box red decor hasn’t changed, & the menu has remained the same since day one. As well as the usual suspects, it’s worth experimenting with less well-known starters, such as fish satay with peanut sauce or Thai calamari served with plum sauce. There are interesting salads, too, including a version with grilled rack of lamb & spicy aubergine, while mains range from chargrilled rib-eye steak cooked in a dry chilli sauce to pumpkin gaeng dang (a red curry with coconut milk & Thai basil). To drink, there’s a minimal choice of wines, or even Thai whiskey – although aromatic teas beckon for invigorating refreshment.
