The time has come!
Spring has sprung and we are tickled pink to announce our first patio party of the season~
May 15th it’s a FUNK NIGHT TAKEOVER!
😱🤩🥳😱🤩🥳😱🤩🥳😱🤩🥳😱🤩
One of our favorite labels period, label founder Frank Raines & his old school homie DJ Head will be setting the tone for an evening of deep grooves, expansive psychedelic jams, sexy flute solos & musings informed by early hip hop.

Chef Brad & Co are dusting off the charcoal fired woks and making noodles for the people, always a treat to have the boss at the helm.

Special drinks al fresco, vibes a plenty, come welcome the season with us the only way we know how.

**Passionfruit happens every 3rd Friday May - Sept**
For May’s edition we’re raising money & awareness for the good work of our good friends

We’ve debuted a new laap & this is a DO-NOT-MISS!

Sustainably sourced rainbow trout coming straight from the best ~> . We cure & smoke the fish before service, then flake it & cook the tender morsels in the wok with fish bone stock & an aromatic paste of galangal, shallot & garlic upon order.

In traditional Isaan laap fashion, we build the dish from here with lemongrass, Vietnamese coriander, cilantro, sawtooth, shallot, roasted dry chili, toasted rice power & lime juice. Topped with a beautiful segment of dried, crisped fish skin. COME ON!

Wrap it up in bibb & munch the cukes in between.
What a joy. 😌

We’re pok-ing papaya, folding dumplings & watching in awe as this bowl of fish sauce dances, among other things.

Just slipped a chili noodle dish on the menu ~
See you soon 💋

Feels like the perfect day to grab a friend, grab a seat & order yourself a cosmopolitan.

Fresh to the menu, we’ve got this baby on draft with yuzu & pomegranate to compliment the classic build of vodka, curaçao, lime & cranberry. Shes sipping reaaaaaal nice & we’re thinking maybe we should bottle it up for your takeaway pleasure. Juicy, bright picnic cocktails anyone?!

If you just don’t swing that way, may we lead you to the Sunshine Sour ~ a tamarind, palm sugar whisky sour that is fun, uncomplicated & reminiscent of our unabashed days of yore drinking on the rooftop until 5am.

Patio is not *really* open but you’re welcome to linger there and soak in this Friday that started out like The Cure and has now morphed into more of a Sabrina Carpenter vibe.

What’s good cyber friends?!

We’re roasting peanuts, spinning frozen mango drinks & HIGHLY SUGGEST having these two hand in hand.

Happy hour is 4-6 to satisfy your fried chicken sando desires & we just received some deliciously sweet overwintered carrots from HiO Farm so you know we’re having a great day. Come get in on this. 🙂 🤸 🙃

First, we make a paste of garlic, white pepper & cilantro root.

Next we mince the best shrimp & pork belly we can get our hands on & mix in the paste.

Then we form it into square cakes, cover in panko & fry. After it achieves just the right shade of golden we plate it with a drizzle of plum sauce & a sweet little salad of shaved pineapple, herbs, chili & fish sauce.

The little crispies on top come compliments of dried fish fried in cracked coconut cream in traditional Thai fashion.

CAUSE WE LOVE TO!

It’s 2018 and Chef Brad (Takoi) & Chef Sam (OK Chicken & Khao Soi) meet in Chiang Mai, each on their journey of dedication to the teachings of Thai food.

From plated contemporary takes on royal Lanna style food, to the most incredible Lady Boy Cabarets, to driving out of the city center destined for a special highway stall with hammered beef, banana leaf wrapped brains & our first tastes of Lao Khao (rice moonshine), these two are cut from the same cloth. You don’t often get to meet a fellow who geeks out on the same tip as you, and tonight we get to cook together and share that celebration with you!

Service begins at 5 at
