    Hello to you. My Husband , son and myself were recently at the Naj for Dinner in early December. The Menu is so unbeliveable. We could’nt make our minds up what to order.
    When we were first seated we were given a small glass with a green leaf filled with some sort of herbs inside. Can you tell me what the name is of this little appertiser and what the ingredients are inside the leaf.
    We would love to know as now we are back in Australia and can’t wait to come to the Naj again later this year .
    Thank you so very much for a wonderful evening and one of the most beautiful meals we have ever tasted

    Hi, to answer your question, that green leaf was called ‘Mieng Kam’ in Thai. It is a traditional Thai appetizer. I went to this restaurant once. They gave this appetizer as a complementary when we first seated.

    We really love this restaurant. Nice location, great atmosphere and of course splendid taste! Such a great experience. I will surely find time to go there again.
