Par Restaurant is the restaurant of Hotel MOCO in Udon Thani — a comfort dining destination serving Thai and Western favourites daily from 12:00 PM to 11:00 PM, for families, local diners, and travellers. Refined set menus are available on request.
The Meaning Behind the Name
‘Par’ comes from an Isan word for a platter — a spread laid out to be shared. It is the right name for what this restaurant is. In Isan households a meal is not portioned out and separated; it is set in the middle of the table and reached for together. Par Restaurant is built on that idea: food is better when there is enough of it, when it arrives without ceremony, and when everyone is reaching for the same dish.
What Comfort Dining Means Here
Comfort dining means you do not need an occasion to come. The menu is built around dishes people actually want to eat — Thai and Western, familiar rather than experimental, generous rather than precise. Nothing on the table needs explaining. Children can order what they know. Someone who has eaten Thai food for sixty years and someone who arrived in Udon Thani yesterday can sit at the same table and both leave satisfied.
