Since the 1980s, tens of thousands of Thai workers have come to Israel on agricultural contracts — at peak, over 30,000 at a time — and many brought their culinary culture with them. That labour migration seeded an Israeli appetite for Thai food that long predates the global pad-thai wave, and it has produced a restaurant scene more authentic in places than what you&rsquo;ll find in many Western European capitals.</p>https://asiansinisrael.com/2026/05/best-thai-restaurants-israel/Thu, 14 May 2026 12:00:00 +0300https://asiansinisrael.com/2026/05/best-thai-restaurants-israel/<p>Thai food is arguably the most established Asian cuisine in Israel.
