About The Restaurant
Serving delicious authentic Bangkok-style Thai food in the heart of Arklow, Co. Wicklow, Tapau House is definitely worth a visit. Located on the main street of this bustling coastal town, they offer a wide selection of both familiar and less common Thai dishes to tantalise your tastebuds. The décor here is light and airy providing a welcoming comfortable atmosphere, and the welcoming knowledgable staff only serve to accentuate the pleasant vibes.
Starters include favourites such as chicken satay, Tomyam soup and their finger-lickin Tapau hot wings glazed with a hot and sticky sauce and sprinkled with sesame. There’s Duck Popiah (spring rolls with carrot, cabbage, black mushrooms and glass noodles) not to mention crispy vegan samosas. The crispy butterfly king prawn is a delight, deep-fried and served with a sweet chilli dipping sauce, as is a tempura of Kung Pao cauliflower floret with a chilli spiced powder and Szechuan sauce.
For the mains, their wok-fried dishes are the star of the show with a great variety to choose from, all being served with your choice of rice, noodles, chips or stir-fried veg. There’s fan favourites like chicken in sweet and sour sauce or sirloin of beef in black bean, as well as the likes of Tamarind Chilli Duck with pepper, onion and carrot in a chilli ginger and tamarind sauce, or a Chicken Katsu curry, the panko breaded chook being served in an aromatic katsu sauce.
Curry dishes are popular at Tapau House also, with offerings like Rendang Ayam, a traditional Malaysian slow-stewed chicken dish with galangal, lemon grass, chilli paste in coconut milk and toasted coconut flakes, as well as Kari Udang, a classic Indonesian curry of garlic, chilli, onion mixed peppers, finished with coconut milk and coriander. They have some great noodle dishes too such as the de rigeur Pad Thai not to mention one of my old favourites, Singapore noodles. Worth mentioning also, the firecracker potatoes, deep-fried and tossed with dry chilli and seasonings, are to die for.
A meal at Tapau House is always a delight, but if you’d rather have an evening in they do great takeaways as well delivering to the surrounding area. So, if you love great Thai and South East Asian food and find yourself near Arklow, check out Tapau House today, you won’t be disappointed.
