Spotlight on Heritage Asia Thai Bistro

What’s this?

Is it Heritage India?

Those are the questions people frequently ask when they see our first-floor dining room.

In fact, it’s Heritage Asia Thai Bistro, our two-year-old sister restaurant owned by Heritage India.

We recently edited the menu, so now is a fine opportunity to sample the delicious Thai and Pan-Asian cuisine our Thai chef serves.
