Quick Eats – Chiang Mai

Sep30

Restaurant: Chiang Mai

Location: 12510 Burbank Blvd, Valley Village, CA 91607. (818) 452-9891

Date: February 2, 2024

Cuisine: Thai

Rating: Seemed just pretty good Northern Thai

_

I read somewhere that they had the best Khao-soi in town, so when I had a work recording session end nearby I had to try.



The menu.

Interior.

Sai Oua. Spicy ground pork sausage with thai herbs. Serverd with vegetables and Side Nam Prik Noom. Very good sausage. Chili paste was great also.

Chiang Mai Larb. Northern style larb, ground pork, pork organs, dried chili, mint leaves, green onion and garlic. A little dry, decently spicy, good flavor.

Beef Khao-soi. Beef was a little dry. Soup was good, but not incredible.

Condiments for the Kao-soi.

Overall, this place is quite similar to Khaosian — similar menu and about the same quality level. Maybe Khaosian is a little better. Definitely NOT the best Khao-soi I have had — although tasty enough.
