Yupha's Thai Kitchen reopens in new location tonight
By Michele Laudig
If you're craving Thai food for dinner tonight, I have a tasty suggestion: Yupha's Thai Kitchen.
The popular Tempe restaurant closed its doors several weeks ago, gearing up for a big move to a new space east of its former home. Like the old location, the upgraded spot is on Elliott Road (1805 E. Elliott, 480-839-0576), on the southeast corner at McClintock.
Owner Yupha Dequenne says it's a little bit bigger now -- about 100 seats instead of 77 -- but feels quite a bit bigger, thanks to a new layout.
The scrumptious Thai menu is the same, with a few new items, including gaeng pa, a low-fat vegetarian curry that doesn't contain coconut milk, and gaeng kua supparod, a pineapple coconut milk red curry with jumbo shrimp. Both were customer favorites that had been offered as daily specials in the past.
If you're like me, you might be ready to run out to Yupha's for lunch (the food is really delicious), but they don't open their doors until dinner tonight, at 6 p.m. Bon appetit!
