At Mystic Thai, we make it with a subtle Jamaican twist using fresh local produce for that extra burst of freshness. Pair it with our Thai Iced Tea for the ultimate comfort combo.
2. Green Curry Chicken — Rich and Fragrant
A signature Thai dish loved by Jamaicans, Green Curry Chicken combines coconut milk, basil, and green chilies to create a silky, spicy, aromatic sauce.
At Mystic Thai, we serve it with steamed jasmine rice, offering the perfect balance between heat and sweetness. It’s the ideal choice for anyone who enjoys rich, flavorful curries similar to Jamaica’s traditional stews.
3. Tom Kha Soup — Comfort in a Bowl
This coconut-based soup blends lemongrass, galangal, mushrooms, and tender chicken for a soothing yet tangy experience. Tom Kha Soup is perfect when you want something light yet deeply satisfying.
Its creaminess and citrus notes are a beautiful introduction to Thai cooking, especially for first-timers exploring Thai cuisine in Jamaica.
4. Thai Basil Chicken — Bold and Addictive (90 words)

This dish delivers a burst of flavor with every bite — slightly spicy, incredibly aromatic, and perfectly paired with rice or noodles. It’s a customer favorite at Mystic Thai for good reason: simple, satisfying, and full of heart.
5. Shrimp Pad Kra Pao — The Street-Food Star
A popular Thai street-food dish, Shrimp Pad Kra Pao features fresh shrimp tossed with basil, garlic, and chilies, served with jasmine rice and a fried egg on top.
At Mystic Thai, our version highlights the seafood freshness Jamaica is known for, creating a fusion that’s both authentic and local. The umami and spice combination makes this a must-try for seafood lovers.
6. Som Tum Papaya Salad — Crisp and Refreshing

Perfect as an appetizer or side, it pairs beautifully with grilled meats or curries. It’s proof that Thai cuisine is as fresh and bright as it is flavorful.
