Vernon Rex Cullum-Owner
Cullum’s personal culinary evolution pre-dates
Prescott’s. “I grew up in meat-and-potatoes land,
where the most exotic spice was black pepper,” he said. “I moved to the Bay Area in my 20s and thought I
died and went to heaven.” There, he discovered foods from around the world, notably Thailand. Having lived
in the Prescott area for 20 plus years, Cullum has a good
handle on the culinary landscape.
The best Thai food you will ever experience—in a gorgeous environment
Tara Thai Restaurant presents a fine dining experience in an elegant yet relaxed setting in the hub of a historic Arizona tourist destination across the street from the Prescott Courthouse Square. Mr. Cullum’s interests are that of creating authentic Thai food pleasing to the western palate in an atmosphere which reflects the values of a global conciousness.
Entering the restaurant you are greeted by a very large Buddha at the end of the traditional Koi Pond that stretches the full length of the dining room. The waterfall belneath the Buddha facilitates the integration of art and contemporary design with ancient values allowing for a relaxing and pleasant atmosphere. A complete bar menu is offered including unique compositions by our talented staff. All food is prepared to order relative to the level of spiciness you desire.
