At Gai, we serve the slow poached chicken with rice as a classic dish. This Hainanese dish, also known in Thailand as khao man gai, employs a traditional slow poaching technique to extract clean chick…
Original Gai was delicious, good amount of protein and thicker flavorful broth. A little more broth would be nice, but overall great dish. Recommend!
Mango coconut jelly was good, though a lot of sweet for a single person, worth sharing!

Wonderful meal! Truly delicious! The chicken was so moist, the rice perfectly cooked, and the broth very light yet tasty. I got the lean chicken rice with 1/2 salad and it was perfect. Highly recommend!

I love their crispy chicken with chicken rice. It's very flavourful and still tastes great when re-heated. I strongly recommend the Hainan sauce - the ginger complements the chicken really well. The extra meat option is a good value for the price too.

I feel like the chicken rice at Gai is the unspoken hero of the dish. I got the Mixed Gai and it was delicious, per usual. I get this quite regularly. I love the soup that comes with it, and the Hainan sauce is super flavorful. Everything tastes so fresh and the portions are bountiful! Comfort food like this is hard to come by, so of course I will come back again and again.

Our go to is the Original because we like to keep it simple. The flavor and portions are consistent leaving us satisfied and content. The order also comes with a small side of broth and we suggest mixing a little bit of their ginger oil sauce into the broth for some umami. THIS is comfort food. Don't forget to order their Thai tea!
