Lisa's Latin Beat: Thai-Latino Restaurant

The CW11's Lisa Mateo visits Talay -- a new restaurant in West Harlem that blends Latino and Thai cuisines. She also speaks with Food & Wine magazine about the growing trend of fusion cooking.

Individually their tastes are somewhat similar, but together Thai-Latin cuisine is a culinary treat. Just listen to the menu: ropa vieja with asian root vegetables, churrasco with sweet, sour and salty dipping sauces and pineapple shrimp fried rice. If that caught your attention then "talay" is the place for you. They also have a great late night lounge area upstairs with live music.

Lisa's also providing a bonus how-to demo to CW11 viewers. She'll teach you how to make pan-seared scallops with red coconut curry sauce.

Talay is located at 701 W 135th Street (btwn Broadway and aRiverside Drive), New York, NY 10031. For more information, visit talayrestaurant.com or call (212) 491-8300.
