Best for thai, vegetarian, garden dining.
Garden of Eden is a Thai restaurant at Virolastraat 61 in Uitvlugt, and it is one of very few kitchens in Paramaribo cooking a cuisine that is neither Surinamese, Chinese nor Indian. Its own site describes dishes built on the five classic Thai flavours and sums the place up as being for, in its words, "culinary pleasure and oriental leisure".
It is an evening restaurant and nothing else: Monday to Saturday, 18:00 to 22:00, closed on Sunday. Reservations on (597) 499448 or WhatsApp (597) 7444007.
Listings elsewhere add a garden setting, Thai chefs and an extensive vegetarian and vegan range. We have not repeated those claims. The only things the restaurant states itself are the address, the hours and the cuisine, and in a city where restaurant descriptions are copied from aggregator to aggregator, the primary source is the one worth printing.
Twenty-nine verified places to eat and drink, in one table: which kitchen, which part of town, when they are open, and what we could not confirm. Use it to plan a day of eating rather than a single meal.
