Let’s talk about a Thai dish that doesn’t always steal the spotlight — but once you’ve had it, it’s hard to forget.
Say hello to Larb Gai — bold, herby, spicy, and totally addictive. 😋
So… What Exactly Is Larb Gai?

Larb Gai is a Thai-style minced chicken salad, but don’t think “salad” like lettuce and ranch. This is the good stuff: juicy chicken marinated in lime juice, tossed with roasted rice powder, fish sauce, scallions, red onions, mint, and cilantro. It’s fresh, spicy, and full of flavor.
Every bite is a little crunchy, a little zesty, and a lot exciting. 💥
How People Eat It in Thailand 🇹🇭
In Thailand, Larb Gai is everywhere — family dinners, late-night cravings, even street food stalls.
Locals usually eat it with sticky rice and fresh veggies on the side — cucumber, cabbage, long beans. Some scoop it with sticky rice, others wrap it in lettuce leaves for a clean, crunchy bite.
It’s one of those dishes you can eat often and never get bored.
How We Do It Here

At our restaurant, we stick to tradition — no shortcuts, no gimmicks.
We start with fresh minced chicken, marinate it in lime juice, and toss it with roasted rice powder, scallions, herbs, and just the right amount of heat (you choose the spice level, of course 🌶️).
And here’s our favorite touch: we serve it on a bed of crisp green leaf lettuce. Not just for looks — it adds texture, freshness, and makes each bite even better. 🥬
Whether you’re piling it on sticky rice or eating it lettuce-wrap style, it hits the spot.
