A Thai Chef
They say that those from Thailand, or who have travelled there, can tell the difference when food is made by someone from Thailand. They also maintain that they are very few restaurants in the city that can make this claim. Open since 1999, Ruan Thai Restaurant Is not only boasts a chef from Thailand, but also a friendly atmosphere open late for loyal customers.

True Thai Cuisine
There are plenty of beef, pork and chicken dishes on the menu. Various curries such as the green curry chicken or a red curry with beef are popular choices. However, this restaurant’s Pad Thai is always a safe bet for the indecisive. Try their exotic soups flavoured with sweet and savoury flavours, like lime, coconut and chicken. For dessert, sticky rice with mango is a comfortingly sweet and warm delight.

Impressive Lunch Buffet
A lunch buffet considered by many as one of the best in Calgary runs Monday through Friday, so you’ll be able to try eight different items, such as lemongrass chicken and coconut rice. A selection of desserts is also provided after your meal. To follow up, enjoy a beer from their selection of imported Thai drinks, or a glass of wine from the full bar. Private parties are more than welcome and there are different sized meeting rooms for this purpose, just be sure to call ahead.
