Chao Krung Revives Thai Tradition | California News
Description
Step back in time to Chao Krung, LA’s oldest Thai restaurant, where tradition meets revival. Since 1969, this family-run gem has weathered shifts in taste and location — from serving Chinese dishes to lure early customers, to becoming a cornerstone of Thai Town on Fairfax Avenue. Now, sisters Amanda and Katy Maneesilasan, who grew up behind the counter, are steering it back to authentic Thai roots. Every Wednesday, they’re igniting nostalgia with Kanom Jeen Curry Night — featuring grandma’s green curry, rice noodles, and grilled skewers — while expanding their legacy with a new Ban Ban Burger next door. This isn’t just dinner; it’s a living history served hot.
