Buddhas Leiden

At Buddhas, an evening revolves around distinct Thai flavors. At the Botermarkt, a Thai kitchen team prepares dishes in which curry, coconut milk, fresh herbs, peppers, lime, basil, and other typical ingredients of Thai cuisine are given ample space.

The menu is extensive enough to explore various options. You can choose a fragrant curry, a wok dish, fish or meat, as well as several vegetarian dishes. The spiciness level of each dish is clearly indicated, so you know in advance whether to choose mild, spicy, or extra spicy.

From green curry to wok dishes

The menu features many recognizable Thai dishes. Think of green and red curries with coconut milk, dishes with Thai basil, fresh ginger or cashews, and various soups where lime, coconut, and herbs come together.

There is also a wide selection of fish and meat. Tenderloin, chicken, duck, and fish are combined with various sauces, vegetables, and curry pastes.

Vegetarians also have their own selection including tofu, vegetables, curry, and wok dishes.

Choose for yourself how elaborate your meal is

At Buddhas, you can order à la carte, but there are also options to combine multiple courses.

This allows you to turn it into a quick meal, but you can just as easily try several dishes in a row. Especially when you are with several people, it is fun to put different flavors on the table and share dishes.

Separate group menus and packages are available for larger parties.

Eating by the water

A striking feature of Buddhas is the terrace boat on the Nieuwe Rijn. In good weather, you can dine outside here with a view of the water and the passing boats.

Inside, the restaurant features a contemporary interior, and there is a separate upstairs room for larger groups. This space has its own bar and restrooms and can be used for private parties.

As a result, Buddhas is suitable not only for a dinner for two, but also for birthdays, business dinners, and other groups.

Also for home

Those who prefer to eat at home can also pick up dishes. Additionally, Buddhas delivers in Leiden via a delivery platform.

That makes it easy to put the same Thai dishes on the table at home when you don't feel like going out to eat.

A broad introduction to Thai cuisine

Buddhas does not try to center one specific Thai dish. It is precisely the breadth of the menu that makes it interesting.

From a mild curry to a spicy stir-fry, from fish to vegetarian, and from soup to multiple shared courses: here you can decide for yourself which side of Thai cuisine you want to discover.
