About Us
Thai Chef is a Thai street food restaurant that specializes in Bangkok style vendor food you would find along the streets. From Moo-phing, BBQ pork on skewers to Kao-mun-gai, herb studded jasmine rice with seasoned steamed chicken. As well as our house special cocktails! We believe that if you haven’t had Thai street food, you haven’t had Thai food. We hope to bring the taste of what it’s like to eat on a stick in Bangkok to the Dupont Circle, DC.
