๐น๐ญ Chicago Thai Food Roundup ๐ฅ These 4 Spots Are Must-Tries!
JJ Thai ๐๐๐๐ A go-to for Thai food in Chicago. Must-orders: ๐ฆ Khao Pad Phoo (Crab Fried Rice) ๐ Khao Ka Moo (Braised Pork Leg over Rice) ๐ฅฅ Kha Nom Tuay (Warm Coconut Pudding) Snacks like grilled ribs are small but tasty. Only downside: tight seating. Tuk Tuk Thai ๐๐๐ Near JJ Thai, vibrant floral tablecloths (kinda Northeast China vibes ๐). ๐ฅ Must-try: grilled whole fish ๐ฅญ Mango Sticky Rice & pink milk drink are solid. Mahanakhon Noodle Bar ๐๐๐๐ Opened last year in Lakeview โ chic, Shanghai-esque decor. ๐ฅ Try: fried wontons, coconut shrimp ๐ฒ Mains: spicy pork, beef hot pot, pad kra pao, boat noodles ๐ฅฅ Coconut pudding here too. ๐น Drink: Pure palm juice was just sweet water. ๐ Dessert: Caramelized banana โ dry texture, not my fave. Siam Thai Eatery Chicago ๐๐๐ Hot new spot โ always bumping into friends here! ๐ Highlights: basil short rib, pineapple fried rice, curry. Cozy Noodles n' Rice ๐๐ Fun decor near Wrigley Field โ signed baseballs, vintage toys, neon lights, giant Mario, even baseball jokes on the menu (like teasing the Cubs ๐). Great vibe, but food is average โ leans Americanized Thai. โฌ๏ธ Follow for more Chicago dining guides! ๐ฉโ๐ณ #ChicagoEats #ThaiFood #JJThai #TukTukThai #Mahanakhon #SiamThai #CozyNoodles
