TAGUIG CITY — Mango Tree Thai at BGC High Street Central is inviting diners to explore a menu that balances tradition with playful innovation. From salted egg twists on classic noodles to aromatic curries and refreshing desserts, the restaurant offers a comprehensive Thai dining experience in the heart of Bonifacio Global City.
A Menu Built on Purist and Adventurist Choices
Mango Tree organizes its offerings into two distinct categories: Purist and Adventurist. The Purist section caters to diners seeking authentic, time-honored flavors prepared with classic techniques. The Adventurist section introduces creative interpretations that push boundaries while respecting Thai culinary foundations.
This dual approach allows first-time visitors and seasoned Thai food lovers to navigate the menu with confidence. Whether craving a familiar bowl of Phad Thai or eager to try something new, guests find options tailored to their comfort level. The structure reflects the restaurant's understanding of diverse palates.
Curries That Never Disappoint
Thai curries form the heart of the Mango Tree experience. Guests can choose from Red Curry, Panang Curry, Green Curry, and Massaman Curry, each offering distinct flavor profiles. The Red Curry delivers a spicy kick, while Panang brings a nutty richness that coats the palate.
Massaman Curry stands out for its gentle warmth and complex spices, often featuring tender meat and potatoes. Green Curry offers herbal notes with a coconut milk base that balances heat and creaminess. These curries pair perfectly with steamed rice or sticky rice for a satisfying meal.
Salted Egg and Soft Shell Crab Innovations
The Pad See Ew Kai Kem showcases a creative twist on a beloved noodle dish. The addition of salted egg elevates the savory profile, creating a rich, umami-packed bowl that has quickly become a favorite. It demonstrates how a single ingredient can transform a familiar dish into something memorable.
Phad Thai with Soft Shell Crab offers another innovative take on a classic. The crispy crab adds texture and sweetness to the tangy, peanut-laced noodles. These dishes reflect Mango Tree's willingness to experiment while honoring the essence of Thai cooking.
Grilled and Steamed Specialties
The Grilled section features Thai Isan Spareribs, U.S. Lamb Chops Thai Style, Grilled Salted Sea Bass, and Grilled Chicken in Lemongrass. Each protein is seasoned with Thai herbs and served with traditional dipping sauces. The smoky char and aromatic marinades transport diners straight to the streets of Bangkok.
Steamed options include Sea Bass with Lime Sauce, Shrimp in Tom Yum, and Chilean Black Mussels. These lighter preparations highlight the natural freshness of seafood. The Tom Yum soups, available with shrimp, seafood, or vegetables, deliver the iconic hot-and-sour flavor that defines Thai cuisine.
Sweet Endings and Refreshing Desserts
Tub Tim Krob, also known as Red Rubies, provides the perfect sweet ending to any meal. The dessert features water chestnuts dyed red and served in sweet coconut milk over crushed ice. Mango Sticky Rice offers another beloved option, combining ripe mango with sweetened sticky rice and coconut sauce.
Other desserts include Coconut Custard with Sweet Corn, Sweet Cassava, and Thai Style Mochi. Each dessert is crafted to cleanse the palate and leave a lasting impression. The variety ensures that every guest finds a sweet note to end on.
