Galanga

"There is a distinct tropical vibe at Chef "Ana" Somsri Raksamran's restaurant, set in a courtyard lined by towering bamboo and decorated with woven reed ceiling pendants and dangling vines.The menu offers a range of impressively prepared Thai cuisine with specialties from the country's northeast, central plains and the south. Gaeng kiew wan is a luscious green curry with a bright hue, noticeable fresh chili spice, and a nice herbaceous quality; stocked with tender beef brisket, organic eggplant, sweet baby corn, and chopped green beans, it's a delight best enjoyed with some freshly made roti canai. Save room for the khao niew ma muang - an eye-popping presentation of perfectly ripe mango with a warm colorful block of sticky rice and scoop of coconut ice cream." - Michelin Inspector

"More restaurants in Mexico City have become increasingly international over the past decade, and this Thai spot is another example of that. You’ll see familiar noodle dishes on the menu, but the standouts here are the “platos fuertes,” or entrees, like the khao soi and the khai paloh with egg and pork belly. Add on a plate of gai tod golae, which will be some of the best fried chicken wings you'll ever try, and wash it all down with one of their mezcal cocktails. They also have anoutdoor terrace that’s great for big groups." - guillaume guevara

"Galanga occupied a slim space in Roma Norte for a few years before moving up the block and into a larger open-air mansion with a beautiful build-out. A thicket of bamboo lines one long wall; there are woven orbs dangling from the ceiling and two levels of seatings on comfortable wooden chairs. Galanga, the defining Thai restaurant in the city, is steered by powerhouse chef Somsri Raksamran and her Mexican husband, Eleazar. The couple also owns Kin-Thai Eatery, which focuses on street food, and Daeng, a new Chinese-inflected restaurant." - Naomi Tomky, Scarlett Lindeman
