About Deepawali

Two Indian restaurants in Thailand, one in Laguna, Phuket, and one on Koh Samui, sharing one name.

What the name means

Deepawali (also written Deepavali, and better known as Diwali) is the festival of lights, celebrated across India and by Indian communities around the world. The word comes from Sanskrit: deepa, a lamp, and avali, a row.

A row of lamps: small clay oil lamps, diyas, lit along doorways and windows. It’s the mark you’ll see across this website.

The food

Indian food is regional: every part of India cooks differently, with its own spices, breads and ways with vegetables.

Each restaurant has its own menu. Every dish shows its dietary markings and spice level, so you can choose for yourself.
