LUNCH SPECIAL
ALL MAIN DISHES WITH RICE for only $14
FRI - SAT FROM 12PM TILL 4.30PM
At Son in Law we serve traditional Thai dishes with a creative twist!
Son in law takes it's name from a famous Thai street food favourite, a dish with a humorous back-story. It’s said that if a mother in law feels her son in law is being less than kind to her daughter, she’ll cook and serve these deep fried eggs as a clear message: be nice because your family jewels are on the line! Perhaps tongue-in-cheek, nonetheless it’s a warning in the form of a delicious but fiery dish. Not one to play it safe, here at Son in Law we bravely balance the two opposing forces of staying true to our authentic and very real Thai roots, while at the same time looking forward, modernising and pushing the boundaries of Thai food in our new home of Melbourne.
