Thai$$

You could be in Bangkok. Except you're not - you're in an atmospheric former pharmacy in Castlemaine, eating sparkling fresh and feisty Thai. Succulent fishcakes arrive with zingy sweet chilli sauce, perfectly cubed cucumber, roasted peanuts and coriander. For something special, opt for the red duck curry - tender slices of roast duck mingle with cherry tomatoes, lychees and Thai basil in a luxurious yet punchy curry. Soft, thick rice noodles with wild ginger, chilli and green peppercorns (on the stem) make for a nice change of pace. The house-made roti is a standout. Staff are smooth as silk, matching the food's finesse.
