Blue Moon Thai Cafe is a relaxed restaurant at 134 Fortess Road in Tufnell Park. Its cooking takes inspiration from Thai home food across the country, from the north east to the southern border, and the team welcomes requests from diners who prefer gentler heat.
The menu begins with choices such as chicken satay, Thai fish cakes, vegetable spring rolls, salt and pepper tofu and aromatic duck. Tom yum and coconut rich tom kha soups add bright lemongrass, lime leaf and galangal flavours, while papaya salad offers a fresh, chilli led alternative.
Green, red, panang and massaman curries can be matched with different proteins, and house dishes include duck with tamarind and grilled prawns with a hot and sour sauce. Pad Thai, drunken noodles, fried rice and a broad vegetable section make it straightforward to build either a familiar meal or try something new.
The friendly dining room is open for lunch and dinner, with home delivery also available. Peanuts, shellfish, fish sauce, soy and other common allergens appear across Thai cooking, so guests with allergies or dietary requirements should discuss their order directly with the restaurant.
