As peculiar as a Koren Buddhist temple in Techapi seems so are the Thai Restaurants; so I made the drive to Techapi just to dine at Thai Palms. I had heard a lot about the food, but horrible stories about the waitress. On that particular day we found the waitress to be quite pleasant.  All portions are made to share.  The dishes were delightful but I enjoyed my order of shrimp/eggplant and Thai soup the most.  If you’re a coffee drinker, try the Thai iced coffee.  If you happen to overeat, you can relax with a massage on location right after your meal.

Thai Palms is located at 2090 South St, Techapi, CA.
