This is my second visit to this restaurant. The first time I came, I ordered all dishes to be extra spicy because I was craving for spicy Thai food. However, the spiciness was quite mild probably because it was my first time there. So this time, I asked for even spicier dishes than last time. I could hear someone in the kitchen coughing, and I felt sorry for causing trouble. I learned that not all Thai people are good with spicy food. Despite that, the food was delicious. Everything I tried was tasty. There are many Thai restaurants in Kinshicho, but this is my favorite.

Hello. I am the self-proclaimed Curry King. April 2nd. After a date with Curry Princess, we had dinner. We were watching the movie "Slam Dunk" while fighting over a caramel popcorn, so I'm not very hungry. But when it comes to curry, I have a separate stomach. As usual, I tried to introduce Curry Princess to the world of curry, but I was finally scolded, "Curry has no feminine charm!" Haha, a direct hit! Despite that, I weakly managed to ask, "What about Thai food?" and for a brief moment, Curry Princess showed a slight flicker of interest (Oh, Thai food?). Heh... Haha, you still have a lot to learn, Curry Princess. I won't miss this opportunity. Despite suffering near-fatal damage, I unleashed the ultimate move of the Curry King, the final fart, "Oh? By the way, there's a delicious Thai restaurant nearby! Thai food is incredibly popular! It's the king of feminine charm! But I've only been there at night, so if we miss this chance, we might regret it for life. Isn't that terrible? Let's go for Thai food! Come on! Come on! Come on! Pfft." Overwhelmed by my annoying persistence, Curry Princess finally surrendered. We were taken to the Thai restaurant "Chanta" in Kinshicho! - Green Curry - Somen noodles - Gapao Rice I had Green Curry with somen noodles, while Curry Princess had Gapao Rice. I asked for the Green Curry to be "spicy!" but it wasn't spicy at all. It was actually quite sweet. The portion was small, which was just right for me today. According to the owner, they have been in business here for about 8 years, but they had to close for a few years due to COVID-19. They lamented that they had lost many regular customers. The menu included dishes like Gaeng Phed and Isan cuisine, which were quite appealing. I have a feeling that the impression of this Thai food will change when paired with alcohol. I wonder if the day will come when Curry Princess and I will raise a toast together. If that day ever comes... just thinking about it makes this annoying old man want to cry.

I had been to this restaurant about 10 years ago. I remember that the green curry was delicious back then. However, due to the impact of the coronavirus, many restaurants have closed recently, so when I saw this one open, I decided to give it a try. The lunch menu had only 5 options, and I chose the Khao Man Gai. The interior of the restaurant hadn't been renovated and felt dim. It used to be brighter and more vibrant. Maybe my memory is idealizing it. My order seemed to have been forgotten and had to be confirmed again, and it took a while for the food to be served. The chicken rice seemed to have been wrapped and reheated in the microwave. The taste was not bad, but I wish they paid more attention to the presentation. The noodles served with it were flavored with fish sauce and were delicious, but overall, I left the restaurant feeling disappointed.

I recently got hooked on Gapao Rice and went to Chaan Thai to try it. The Gapao Rice was delicious as usual. I was happy that it came with Sen Lek Nam as part of the lunch set. Next time, I want to try the Tom Yum Ramen set. Thank you for the meal.

Once known as the holy land of Thai cuisine in Tokyo, Kinshicho has seen many of its restaurants close down or move to the Koiwa area, resulting in a rapid transformation. In fact, almost half of the Thai restaurants listed on Tabelog had phone numbers that were no longer in use. However, the flame of Kinshicho Thai cuisine has not been extinguished. Located just beside Kinshicho Park, near the north exit of Kinshicho Station, "Chaantaai" opened in 2015. The restaurant is run by a mama-san who used to operate a Thai restaurant called "Karindaining" in Kinshicho. The interior is beautifully arranged, with a window overlooking the kitchen where you can see a picture of the former king and autographs of boxing champions. The place is quite impressive. The menu includes a variety of dishes, including a unique Maguro Larb salad and a clear broth beef ramen that is rich in flavor. The restaurant's skilled cooking techniques bring out the exquisite taste in each dish. There are still many interesting items on the menu to explore. Kinshicho Thai cuisine is still going strong!

This is a Thai restaurant located on Hokusai Street, about a 5-minute walk from Kinshicho Station North Exit. It is a small Thai restaurant run by an individual, with a sign using the colors of the Thai flag as a landmark. The restaurant used to have seating on the second floor as well, but now it has become a Thai traditional massage parlor with the same name. The interior of the restaurant is small but cozy, with Thai handicrafts decorating the space. There are 3 tables for 4 people and 2 tables for 2 people in this small restaurant. They also have karaoke equipment, so it seems like a place where you can enjoy Thai food and karaoke at night. This style is common in individually operated Thai restaurants. The lunch menu includes 3 set menus, each priced at 780 yen, which is quite affordable. They also have daily specials, and on this day, it was the Khao Man Gai set (880 yen). I tried the following: - Set A (Thai Curry) Set (780 yen): This set includes Thai curry, mini ramen, salad, dessert, and coffee. The Thai curry is automatically served as green curry without asking for the type. It is a rich coconut-based curry with a hint of sweetness and a good level of spiciness. It has a thick consistency compared to typical Thai curries, giving it a robust flavor. The ingredients include chicken, bamboo shoots, and eggplant. The bamboo shoots are thinly sliced, and the eggplant seems to be fried or grilled, giving it a slightly caramelized color. The amount of ingredients is a bit on the smaller side, but considering the price, it is well-prepared. - Mini ramen: It is made with rice noodles in a clear and light broth. The broth is likely made from chicken, but it doesn't have a distinct flavor after tasting the curry. The ingredients include chicken, green onions, and celery. It is a mild and easy-to-eat dish without the strong taste of cilantro, making it suitable for everyone. - Salad: A small salad with a sesame soy-based dressing. It was a bit bland, so adding fish sauce made it more flavorful and tasty. - Dessert: Tapioca coconut milk dessert. It consists of small greenish tapioca pearls in room temperature coconut milk. After finishing the meal, they serve iced coffee, which is slightly sweet and refreshing. Overall, even though it lacks cilantro and has fewer ingredients, the restaurant offers authentic Thai cuisine at an affordable price. It's a bit of a walk from the station, but it's worth it for the savings. Highly recommended.

When you go all the way to the back of Kinshi Park, you'll see the flag of Thailand across the street. The small and cozy interior has a homely atmosphere, with autographed photos of past boxing champions on the walls. Perhaps there is a connection to Muay Thai. I tried the Gapao Rice with pork, which had received good reviews from MyRebia. It may look simple, but it had a nice flavor of holy basil and a decent level of spiciness. Behind the restaurant, there is a Thai street with several Thai grocery stores and Thai massage parlors lined up. This area was previously unknown to me, but it seems like new shops are popping up here.

It felt like a small Thai restaurant run by an individual. The coriander salad had a lot of seafood in it and was delicious.

The set meal at Battai in Rampas is decent for 500 yen.

It was delicious.

It was delicious. The food may have looked slightly different from the photos, but that's just part of the charm. The service was excellent, and we had a pleasant dining experience.

There are three lunch options available, all of which have good portion sizes and tasty flavors. The cost performance is also great.

Simply delicious

I believe that Japanese restaurants' excessive use of image representation has both its pros and cons. It should be realized that displays not based on text come with risks. The most common complaint is that the actual dish does not match the image. Without text, it is hard to tell if a dish is spicy or not. For example, when asked for a spicy tuna larb, it was not made spicy as requested. The owner explained that the authentic recipe does not involve heating, but they had to heat it for Japanese customers. The gelatinous texture of the tuna's tendons provides an interesting mouthfeel, but it hardens when it cools down, so it should be eaten warm. The recommended way to enjoy it was with sticky rice. This dish was surprising to find in Isan, where they used to eat raw tuna without refrigeration. Due to concerns about whether this dish would suit Japanese stomachs under the same conditions as in Thailand, it is not ordered by Japanese customers. Overall, the restaurant offers unique dishes that differ from the standard fare, and it is a good place to enjoy non-traditional cuisine.

I was in Nishi-Oi town. It's a town filled with Thai restaurants and a popular place recently. They had Thai beer on the menu (like Singha), but I wanted to gulp down some draft beer. The shrimp crackers served as an appetizer were crispy and went well with the beer. Popia Sod is fresh spring rolls. The chewy rice paper is filled with crunchy vegetables and plump shrimp. In this restaurant, the sprinkled sakura shrimp adds a fragrant touch. The slightly sweet chili sauce enhances the flavor. Sai Krok Isan is Isan-style sausage. It's a specialty dish from the Isan region, made with pork, glass noodles, and fermented rice. The slight acidity in the pork fat makes it addictive and pairs well with beer. Kai Yat Sai is Thai-style omelette. It's a square omelette wrapped around minced meat, onions, carrots, corn, and tomatoes sautéed in sauce. The gentle and slightly sweet flavor of the omelette with a touch of coriander is a nice touch.

I visited the restaurant around 8 pm on a regular night. Due to heavy rain, there were two middle-aged men in suits as the only other customers, each sitting alone at a table. I wanted to have some light snacks and drinks, but they only had full-size dishes, no small appetizers. I started with a bottle of draft beer for 500 yen, which was very good. The dish I ordered was Pad Kee Mao (stir-fried thick rice noodles in spicy soy sauce) for 1050 yen. It was a bit spicy but within a reasonable range. The noodles were thick and slightly sticky, with a hint of Asian flavor. I also had a refill of Kakubin highball for 450 yen, which I really like. Overall, it was a cozy little restaurant where I could enjoy a relaxed meal. I wish they had some intestine-stuffed dishes too.
