Kaosarn - Speisekarte

I've been here countless times and I'll definitely return! I usually order the tom yum goong soup, which is absolutely delicious.

I’ve visited this restaurant three times and enjoyed every meal without exception. The Thai food here is consistently excellent. While the menu is small, I believe this makes it nearly impossible to make a bad or even mediocre choice. If you haven't been here yet, I highly recommend you go—you won't regret it!

This place is perfect for a quick and affordable meal outdoors. The staff is very friendly, and the atmosphere is pleasant. While my expectations weren’t particularly high, the food still managed to meet them. It might not be the best Thai food I’ve ever had, but it’s honest and satisfying dining at a great price in a lively neighborhood.

brilliant new thai in brixton. kaosarn has recently produced quite a lot of buzz, including a very positive review by jay rayner in the observer believes! it is a very small, friendly restaurant with very fresh, tasty and well cooked food. make sure that they were both beginner and most of all all I tried were absolutely delicious. it is part of the brixton village market, so it is only open in the evening towards the end of the week (on Thursday). no booking, no license, so they get up early (or ready to delete, and bring them a bottle if they want to drink alcohol.

I got Gai Yang, Khao Neaw, Som Tum, as I fancied salad and some chicken and rice. A perfection combination of traditional sticky rice served in a bamboo basket and a half grilled chicken with green papaya salad. The green papaya salad hit the spot perfectly, a mixture of beans sprouts, green beans, chilli, carrots tossed in a sweet and sour dressing, on top of crispy iceberg lettuce with roasted peanuts. The grilled chicken came in a luminous yellow colour, with edges of charcoal brown from being grilled. Three big pieces lay alongside each other, chopped so neatly it still lined up together. Accompanying the chicken and sticky rice was two dipping sauce, one a sweet chilli one and the other...

On my way home from a pleasant, cheap but ultimately disappointing meal at Kaosarn I texted a friend, sympathising with her similar experience a few weeks back. Did you ask for authentic spicing? she replied, and immediately a conversation we 'd had around that time came flooding back namely that Kaosarn will up the heat to face burningly authentic levels if and crucially only if you ask. Naturally, I was annoyed I 'd forgotten this bit of advice but annoyed not just with myself why is getting more authentic (and by all accounts better) spicing incumbent upon the customer to happen to know to ask for it? Why didn 't our waitress, when we 'd made our selections, pro actively offer at least th...

Assuming my maths isn 't wrong, Kaosarn has the proud honour of being the 100th London eatery to feature in my blog. And it 's entirely fitting that somewhere like this Thai cafà gets that accolade. Whilst I really can 't be that arsed to write about eating out in London nowadays, I will always blog about inexpensive unpretentious indies like Kaosarn. Especially when they have noodles on the menu! I did consider going for Kaosarn 's signature dish of gai yang khao neaw som tum £11.50) †but I wasn 't hungry enough to take on this combination of half a grilled chicken, sticky rice and som tum. Instead I plumped for soup noodles in the form of kuay tiew tom yum Bangkok style £6.90) . The mo...

My mistrust of certain cuisines being cooked well in London restaurants has left me either missing out completely or just eating my favourite foods on a very in frequent basis. The Mexican revolution that happened what, last year. Yes, I was the only one who never went to certain joints to try their tacos and wraps. Mexican food does not travel well. It should. Like any other complicated cuisine it just takes time and a bit of love to reproduce those wonderful dishes. But for some reason all we get here is a slap dash bad reproduction churned out to the masses as gourmet food. Tacos are not gourmet food. You go to Mexico and tacos are less than 10p each and sold on street corners as a quick...
