The much-anticipated Gai Noi restaurant opened its doors! Get ready to savor delicious culinary delights and experience the flavors of a new dining destination right here in Loring Park.

Gai Noi, short for khao gai noi, is a type of short grain glutinous rice emblematic of the northern Xieng Khouang regions of Laos, where chef Ann and her family are from.  Also known as ‘little chick’ due to its spotted appearance and small shape, khao niew (sticky rice) is a staple of the Lao diet and is eaten in tandem with nearly all other dishes. So important is sticky rice in Lao culture, most Laotians refer to themselves as ‘luk khao niew’, or ‘children of the sticky rice’, as sticky rice is the sustenance of the people; the central component of any meal and gathering.

Honoring this reference and cultural significance, Gai Noi hopes to be a binding agent for the community and connection to a heritage, culture, and lifestyle worlds apart from our own; a place to gather, share,  celebrate, and nourish, coming as you are and being welcomed as luk khao niew.

Our logo, the little chick, was designed by Chicago based Laotian artist Chantala Kommanivanh, who also designed the logos for Lat14 and Khâluna.

We are so excited to share in the journey with all of you! Please follow our new Instagram page to stay up to date on what’s to come.

Gai Noi is open daily from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., and locatedat 1610 Harmon Place.
