Kitchen & Meals

Our kitchen is the heart of our facility, where we prioritize the preparation of balanced, healthy, and culturally diverse meals to support your recovery journey. 

We know that food is important and can be one of the highlights of a persons’ day. The kitchen at Siam Rehab is lead by Sine, our executive chef who spent many years working in some of the finest restaurants in Australia before returning home to Thailand to take over the Siam kitchen. Many of his kitchen staff come from the local community and know all the best places to get local fresh produce, meats, fish, etc. A day for Sine and the kitchen staff generally starts in the morning fresh market in the local village, where the local farmers come to sell their produce.

We do this for a couple of reasons, Siam Rehab believes in supporting our local community as well as having the smallest ecological footprint possible. By sourcing as much of our food locally we help eliminate the waste of trucking and shipping food thousands of miles and maybe more important than that to you however, is that is just tastes better when it was picked this morning and on your plate for lunch.

In the challenging journey of rehabilitation, healthy meals emerge as a cornerstone of recovery. The importance of nourishing the body with well-balanced and wholesome food cannot be overstated. Healthy meals are the building blocks for physical healing, aiding in the restoration of damaged tissues and the replenishment of vital nutrients depleted during addiction.

The energy and vitality provided by healthy meals are essential for actively engaging in therapy and activities, combating the fatigue often associated with substance withdrawal. Nutrient-rich foods can stabilize blood sugar levels, helping to reduce cravings for addictive substances and enabling individuals to regain control over their impulses. Additionally, a balanced diet supports weight management, a vital aspect of physical recovery, and can prevent health complications tied to obesity and undernutrition. Furthermore, healthy meals contribute to digestive health, assisting in the restoration of gastrointestinal functions that may have been compromised due to substance abuse.
