Straight from Esan, Thailand
Esan is Thailand's northeastern region—known for bold, spicy cuisine that doesn't hold back. It's where our family recipes come from, passed down through generations and brought to Vancouver.
Every dish we serve stays true to those roots. No shortcuts, no toning it down. Just real Esan food made the way it's supposed to be.
