By @SimonCocking

Describe the company – the elevator pitch …

Kanum Thai is an authentic Thai food and noodle bar. Serving its customers with restaurant quality thai food at takeaway prices. Kanum uses only meats traceable directly back to the farm, fresh veg and zero MSG’s in creating its own unique dishes.

How are you different?

Kanum was one of the first to market in Thai casual eateries. Our team of Thai Chefs prepare all of our starters and sauces to Kanum’s receipe meaning our food stands out from the rest of our competitors.
