| Kwan Thai was a Thai restaurant in Hays Galleria near [[Locale London Bridge|London Bridge]]. It closed in early 2009, but is expected to relocate somewhere local; as of September 2009 we have no news as of where. |
Good Thai food, and a fantastic view over the Thames (towards the Gherkin). They have outside tables right by the river which are lovely in the summer - worth asking for these when you book. Inside is high ceilings, modern, and not too crowded, with good big windows so you still get the view. |

As of late 2009, the site is occupied by a branch of [http://www.cote-restaurants.co.uk/ Cote Restaurants]; see [http://meemalee.blogspot.com/2009/09/breakfast-at-cote-hays-galleria.html meemalee's review]. |
They do lots of vegetarian options, but be warned: they're on a separate menu which you have to ask for. The vegetarian set menu is reasonable value at £18 a head for 3 courses and tea/coffee - the third course is fruit, which exactly hits the spot after the largely-fried starters and enormous plates of rice, red curry, beancurd, etc. Decent wine list, as well. |
