Sailors Thai Canteen

Sailors Thai on George Street, in The Rocks, Sydney, is an institution. Started by Peter Bowers and David Thompson two decades ago it has helped teach Australians about authentic Thai flavours and ingredients. Whether you're sitting at the stainless steeel communal table or on the outside shaded balcony overlooking Circular Quay, this is a quintessential Sydney experience. Make sure it's on your 'to-eat' list.

  1. I'd come to Sydney just to eat there, that green beef curry looks fabulous.
