"The owners of Khao San wanted recreate the vibrant street foods of Thailand in the heart of Portland, serving dishes like moo yang (grilled pork) or tod mun pla (Thai fish cakes). While Khao San features Thai fare often spotted in American Thai restaurants — pad thai, larb — the restaurant stands out for dishes like hoy joh, a snack of pork shrimp, crab, and water chestnut wrapped in bean curd and deep-fried." - Maya MacEvoy, Thom Hilton
