Our Story
Our Story: From Dan Chang Streets to RVA At Ko Noom, we believe the best food tells a story. For us, that story is Khao Mun Gai—the ultimate Thai - Singaporean comfort food. What started as a beloved family tradition in Thailand is now a mobile culinary journey right here in Richmond, Virginia. Named in honor of family and heritage, Ko Noom was born out of a simple passion: to serve this iconic, comforting street food exactly the way it was meant to be enjoyed.
We just love chicken and rice!
Our Taste
What Makes Our Khao Mun Gai Special? We don't take shortcuts. Every element of our signature dish is crafted with meticulous care: The Rice: Poached to perfection in a rich, aromatic chicken broth infused with garlic, ginger, and pandan leaves. The Chicken: Incredibly tender, juicy, and poached with traditional techniques to lock in flavor.
The Sauce: Our secret weapon—a perfect, savory-spicy balance of fermented soybeans, ginger, garlic, chili, and vinegar. We treat every guest like family pulling up a seat at our table. Whether you're chasing the nostalgic flavors of Bangkok or trying Thai chicken rice for the very first time, we invite you to taste the love, tradition, and dedication packed into every single bite
