KaoSarn London

"My father-in-law once bought two ‘authentic’ Samsung tablets from a guy on the street and, uh, let’s just say that he didn’t get his money back. You won’t need your money back at KaoSarn, which serves simple, satisfying, and authentic Thai food from a small cafe in Brixton Arcade. We like to hit it up when we get cravings for comforting South-East Asian food, and it’s also good for an afternoon pick-me-up. The moo ping pork skewers are a winner, and make sure the minced chicken larb salad is in your order too. photo credit: Rob Greig" - David Paw

"Kaosarn is a yes, yes, yes restaurant. Yes to spring rolls, yes to tod mon pla (spicy fish cakes), yes to larb, yes to papaya salad, yes to curries, yes to... look, you get the picture. Basically, there’s little that you won’t want to order from this homely Thai restaurant in Brixton Village. But equally, there’s little you won’t want to stuff yourself with. So try and save some for later, yeah?" - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing

"We see your naff mouldy supermarket caesar and raise you a minced chicken larb that is packed full of roasted rice, chilli, mint, and what we can only presume to be the tears of the world’s happiest lime. This classic north-eastern Thai salad is super refreshing and a great option if you’re not willing to trade flavour for eating your five-a-day. Kaosarn is a small and simple but entirely satisfying Thai cafe in Brixton, and this place is also totally affordable with all of their salads around a tenner." - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Daisy Meager, Sinead Cranna, Jake Oliver
