Hat Yai Review

Hat Yai offers a southern style Thai fried chicken. Hat Yai specifically is named after another Hat Yai – a Southern Thai city of that same name near the Malaysian border. Foods from the South of Thailand have influences from Malaysia in the, as well as India – and this will be clearly apparent in the food at Hat Yai PDX.

Hat Yai restaurant is a sibling to Paa Dee (which I highly recommend) and ticketed “back of the house” LaangBaan (which has many months of reservations booked out already). Fortunately, Paa Dee and Hat Yai are easily accessible to everyone, particularly Hat Yai which is a counter style service restaurant and the most casual of the three. Plus, if like me, you’re a little paranoid about eating this messily outside with the public, you can totally get this delivered via Postmates (if you haven’t joined yet, sign up here and you get free delivery up to $10 and so will I if you enter my invite code 1I24N). I’ve done this on rainy nights or cold days and its ultra convenient instead of me trekking to the opposite side of town from where I live!
