Blossoming Lotus - Surfers Paradise

Delicious duck and panang curries. Roti and ice cream nice too

We drove a long way to have a late lunch here, only to find that they are NOT open from 11am till 10pm … in fact they close from 3pm to 5pm So disappointed, as traffic was absolute hell in Surfers Paradise, and we lost over an hour in finding a park, then walking to what we thought was a meal, for it to be closed ! Previously had a beautiful lunch @Blossoming Lotus in Newtown who do actually open all day, so felt deceived at the hours written on Happy Cow. Updated from previous review on 2024-08-18

Having been to Blossoming Lotus in Newtown as well as their former store in Cabramatta (which had the best satay chicken skewers and rad-na , New South Wales; I was surprised that the Gold Coast branch menu had more options! Other than my regular curry puffs and pad see ew, I had to try their Thai milk tea and durian sticky rice with ice cream (which was delicious

I had heard of this restaurant before travelling to the Gold Coast and was super happy to discover it was located less than a 5 minute walk from our apartment. Everything looked delicious. They also offer specials from their hot curry bar. I ordered the Penang curry off the menu, coconut rice and curry puffs. So delicious. There are so many Thai restaurants to choose from here but I loved that I could support an exclusively vegan/vegetarian restaurant with my holiday .

I loved the crispy soy bits. Yummy! All the food that we tried at Blossoming Lotus was very, very tasty, and it looked good. The staff was friendly. The desserts were niceeee. It was definitely a successful dinner.
