What Green curry is
Coconut curry with chicken or vegetables and Thai basil.
Green curry is listed as a dish in the Thailand guide, where the index tags it rice-based. The index uses those labels to make an unfamiliar menu legible. What it cannot tell you is how this particular kitchen seasons, fries or plates the dish, so leave room to ask.
Where to find Green curry
Green curry is listed as nationwide rather than tied to one city, so it is a safe thing to look for wherever you land in Thailand. Start with busy markets and casual counters, where turnover keeps the food fresh.
The Thailand guide also covers 6 dishes and 2 bakery items; open the country page for the full menu and the other places in the index.
