Chao Krung Thai

Thai restaurant · Beverly Grove

@infatuation

"Dating back to 1969, Chao Krung is one of the city's oldest Thai restaurants. But it wasn’t until a recent-ish revamp of both the menu and the space itself that this family-run spot on Fairfax became one of our go-to Thai restaurants. Chao Krung’s menu is littered with great options, but the strength of the place lies in its curries. The kaeng ped yang (red duck curry with pineapple) has the right balance of sweet and savory, and the kaeng hung-ley with sweet, aromatic braised pork belly is a dish we can’t go more than a week without eating. The cozy dining room—complete with a wraparound bar, a few TVs, and big windows looking out at CBS Studios—make it a good option for a casual midweek date, too." - Brant Cox, Arden Shore, Garrett Snyder, Nikko Duren, Sylvio Martins
