What: A Northern Thai restaurant atop a Borough Market pub The Globe Tavern.​​ Khao Bird is a spin off from Brighton restaurant Lucky Khao, which is also focused on the food of northern Thailand. Run as a separate business to the popular pub below, Khao Bird serves a tight menu that is ‘inspired by the vibrancy of open-air night markets in and around Chiang Mai’. The 40-cover-or-so space was most recently home to Ana Gonçalves and Zijun Meng’s short-lived katsu sando concept TÓU. 

Who: ​Brighton and Hove-based restaurateur Mike Palmer, who is well-known in the seaside city as the founder of burger and brunch spot Lucky Beach and fine dining restaurant Pike & Pine. Lucky Khao launched on the St James’s Street site that was formerly Pike & Pine In 2018. Khao Bird’s head chef is Luke Larsson, who has been overseeing the kitchen at Lucky Khao since it launched. Prior to the opening, Larsson staged at a number of top Thailand restaurants including Bo.lan in Bangkok and Samuay & Sons in Udon Thani, a city in the country’s north-easterly Isan region. 

The food: ​Larsson’s menu is accessibly priced, striking a balance between dishes from the region that are quite well known – including the (sort-of-eponymous) barbecued chicken with tamarind dipping sauce, the famous Burmese curry pork hung ley and the rich noodle soup khao soi  – and less obvious dishes. Some of the latter are original creations, including a hotdog with a Chiang Mai-style sausage, as well as Khao Bird’s corn ribs with larb sauce and coconut relish. Other dishes include stir-fried pork with mustard greens; Sussex vegetable som tam; and a meatball dish that is credited on the menu as being partly inspired by Ikea.

KhaoFood

To drink:​ Khao Bird has a brief but well-thought out wine list that has been complied by wine consultant Zeren Wilson. Prices start at £8/£31 a glass/bottle. Cocktails include the Cheeky Roco (spiced rum, maraschino, lime, Pepsi); and Calamansi Martini (gin, dry vermouth, calamansi oil, citrus bitters)

The vibe: ​Little ​has changed since the space played host to TÓU save the installation of a large neon sign that is visible through the window to the street outside. 

And another thing: ​Khao Bird is one of a flurry of forward-thinking Thai restaurants to have launched in the capital of late joining John and Desiree Chantarasak’s AngloThai​​ and David Thompson’s Long Chim.​​ It is understood that Palmer is looking into securing a standalone site in London following Khao Bird’s early-doors success.
