Southern Thai Flavors Meet Global Inspiration

Anurak Lodge 

Newling-Ward’s new menu at the Anurak Lodge in Thailand is a celebration of southern Thai cuisine, featuring bold, aromatic dishes crafted from locally-sourced ingredients and the lodge’s own vegetable and herb garden. Highlights include:

• Kua Kling Dry Curry – A fragrant, fiery minced pork dish with kaffir lime leaves
• Gaeng Som Pla – A spicy-sour orange curry with fish and bamboo shoots
• Classic Thai Favorites – Pad Thai, Massaman curry, Panaeng, and Pad Kra Pao

For those seeking a Western twist, the daily specials feature fresh, garden-grown produce in creative dishes such as:

• Cucumber, Watermelon & Feta Salad
• Stir-Fried Bok Choy
• Stir-Fried Pumpkin with Egg

“Our daily harvest determines what’s on the menu—it’s the essence of true farm-to-table dining,” says Newling-Ward.

An Authentic Jungle Dining Experience

Guests at Anurak Lodge can also enjoy traditional Thai jungle cooking in the newly refurbished open-air sala bamboo dining space. The highlight? Fireside ‘Jungle Curry’ nights, where dishes are cooked inside hollow bamboo wood over an open flame—an experience that blends food, nature, and tradition.

Wine & Beverage Selection
To complement the flavors, Anurak Lodge boasts one of the best wine selections in the Khao Sok region, featuring:

• 2014 Bordeaux
• 2022 Rosé
• Prosecco Blu 2022 (Italy)
• Ki Raro Blocks Sauvignon Blanc 2023 (New Zealand)

For coffee lovers, the lodge serves shade-grown Arabica from Seed of Hope, a socially responsible Thai coffee producer that funds scholarships for hill tribe students. And for a sweet touch? House-made pineapple-ginger jam—the perfect breakfast indulgence.

An Award-Winning Ecolodge with a Sustainable Mission

Beyond the kitchen, Anurak Lodge continues to lead the way in eco-conscious hospitality. Its award-winning ‘Rainforest Rising’ project invites guests to plant indigenous trees, restoring land once used for palm oil plantations. This commitment to sustainability has earned the lodge prestigious Tourism Authority of Thailand and SKAL Sustainable Tourism Awards.

• 2024 Responsible Tourism Award – Tourism Authority of Thailand
• 2019 SKAL Sustainable Tourism Award – Rural Accommodation
• 2020 PATA Grand Award – Sustainability

“Anurak Lodge has always been a leader in sustainable tourism,” says Newling-Ward, “but now, I want visitors to know that our culinary experience is just as remarkable as our conservation efforts.”
