Gai Chicken & Rice

6.4/10JapaneseThai

AI-generated summary

Get the Thai style thighs. People say the are far better than they need to be, and the garlic ginger rice has its own fans. One detailed rec says order the regular over the spicy and get it chopped in a bowl, since the sauces run sweet. A couple of people found the chicken dry.
