Night + Market

Northern Thai street food that goes with booze? Yes please!

“In Thai, it’s called ‘aharn klam lao’ which roughly translates to ‘food to facilitate drinking.’ That’s at the heart of what we do. We make food for drunkards”. ~  Chef Kris Yenbamroong, Night + Market

SAUSAGE! Front: Fermented sour pork sausage balls from Isan (northeastern Thailand). They are best eaten with the chili, ginger, peanuts and raw cabbage.
Back: Sai Uah sausage from Chiengrai. It’s a grilled herb sausage which you eat with nam prik noom and a mortar-pounded relish of chili, roasted shallots and garlic. Kris makes both sausages in house.
