Nim's story

thai crystal founded after tragedy

Nim Hoy endured an unimaginable personal tragedy while on holiday, losing her husband and young three children in the Boxing Day tsunami of 2004. Returning to the UK as the sole survivor, she demonstrated incredible strength and resilience. Two years later, she channeled her determination into founding Thai Crystal.

We have eaten weekly at Thai Crystal for at least the past 7-8 years. We can highly recommend the food as we have tried many of the scrumptious dishes. My favourite are the garlic and pepper dishes any meat or fish as they are all fantastic. The corn fritters are just yummy 😋 The staff are friendly, attentive and accommodating. Cannot recommend this Thai restaurant enough. Enjoy!
