- For almost forty years, family-run Anajak Thai has kept their lights on by serving thousands of the pad thais and green coconut curries that most Americans know to be Thai fare. But there's a specialty dish from the Nakhon region in Southern Thailand that’s gotten the menu’s top marks, and that’s simply their crunchy, juicy Thai-style fried chicken. Sprinkled with shallots and served alongside sticky rice and sweet, spicy chili sauces, Anajak’s piping-hot crispy-skinned chicken brings us in for a closer look at what makes this dish such a fan favorite.

Crunchy, Juicy Thai Fried Chicken Is Made By This Family-Owned Restaurant | Fam To Table
That crunch sound tells everything 🤤
Was thinking the same damn thing 🤤
Yes I want some
I want some but I’m all the way from Australia
🐔🐔🐔
That sound was enough to sell
So special to have his dad be able to see his son take the reins of the family business. Well done! ❤️ 😊
Oh man! Now that is some mouth watering food🍗🍗🍖🍗🍗
I'm salivating over that crunch!
Having this for dinner tonight.
Remarkable
I need to try this, next time in LA!
Such a better host than Herring Ro. I can sense the authentic enthusiasm and love for food rather than the Instagram fakery that is Herring Ro
ANYONE WHO LIKES THE COMMENT WILL GET A GOOD NEWS 🤭😜❤️
.
ViDEO WAS AMAING AS ALWAYS 📸
God help their family with the tragedy of the father having a stroke.
I like this host. More of her. She's not just tasting the food, she's "eating" the food. 🤙🏾
i mean apart from all the chicken she left on each piece lol
@@leaa1243 I'm sure she polished off the rest when she was off camera lol. She had to show a little restraint 😉
She also is very articulate and well spoken compared to other hosts and she still has a fun energy to her. Really lovely!
And she doesn’t look like there’s always a gun aiming at her from behind the camera
agreed; her analysis of the taste, textures and smells of the food isn't superficial. Unlike that constantly distracting and seemingly fake "eye-bulging" by Skyler B.
This host is way better than the other ones
Agree
agreed
the N word.
No in Saudi Arabia is better name is al Baik
yess agreed
The love in that family comes through so clearly in this video. Seems like a wonderful restaurant in more ways than one, definitely a stop I will make when I go to LA!
Same here when it's safe to travel again.
In Thailand, we called it Kaitod Hatyai(Hatyai fried chicken). It is a very famous dish in Hatyai,Songkla province in southern Thailand.
Ooooooohhhhh Thank you for providing the name of the dish. I'm trying to find the exact recipe
@@Harry4Potterfan watch Mark weins, he ate thai fried chicken in hat yai
hmoobmeeka I love Mark. I watch him all the time. I’ll have to check it out today. I also found the recipe on TH-cam for Hatyai Fried Chicken. I’m definitely going to try making it
As a Thai it's flourless crispy fried chicken it is very famous to eat with sticky rice and the taste is a bit salty but delicious.
this + glutinous rice = heaven
That is an excellent and dutiful son.
@Delicious Tacos parents who raise their kids well will get what they reaped. A good child
Ikr? I was amazed. Almost every child I know around my age would dip the moment they turn 18. Glad to see his loyalty towards his family's business. Truly respectable.
The son is amazing and so well spoken. I just loved how he described Thai cuisine being a mix between comfort and adventure! Will check this place out forsure :D
As a LA foodie guy who lives only a mile from this restaurant, i can say that this spot is legit for their fried chicken, if nothing else. Go get this fried chicken today! You'll thank me later 🙂
Please order one and eat it for me!
I cant,I literally live on the opposite part of the map.
Do feature them on your next vlog. Looking forward for it 😺
I live in Saudi Arabia 🙂👍
I live in the UAE
Crystal Lee is a good host for this segment. Please bring her back.
That crunch made me instantly drool
i read the title as "LA's creepiest Thai fried chicken"
A poor wording choice.
Dead
samee skdnajd
I'd still eat it. I'm a rockstar eater!
@@RockstarEater No, you are just another generic, formulaic, boring "tuber" doing a food channel and using other channels to garner interest in your shake and bake channel.
I'd tell a fun little poultry pun..
But I'd hate to get *fried.*
Bruh
Wait a minute...
e
Fried? That's a weird word to use... I think the word you were looking for is "roasted".
7/10 bait
I love his relationship with his family. You can tell there is lots of love there.
I taught English in Thailand in 2013-14 literally in the very town this lady in from, Nakhon si Thammarat. My school mentor used to stop and get this for me for breakfast in the morning once a week and I swear it’s exactly like this in real Thailand. Absolutely delicious, a popular Thai breakfast from the side of the road street food. You’re so lucky to have this on your doorstep, LA!
Thai and Vietnamese, especially the south Vietnam have some of the delicious dishes. They represent the typical southeast asian palate..sweet, salty, sour, and texture. They use a lot of garlic,onions, gingers, lime, vinegar, and fish sauce mainly for the marination.
Vietfocus I mean all of asean tbh
I’m part Vietnamese and my grandma is very Vietnamese and she cooks all the time for me a lot every time I visit her. She has amazing food and my favorite food is phó and her phó is sooo goood. But yeah I love Asian food.
@@thatsabruhmoment6999 Don't you love having grand parents know how to make different kinds of food. Food is universal. I think it is a blessing to get to eat different cuisines around the world.
@@emilychareontong3803 Maybe you are right. Food in the same region bound to have similar dishes.
south of Thailand is near Malaysia
KFC: *Finally, a worthy opponent.*
Anything that falls in their kfc batter 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is more of a Popeyes opponent B
The secret to having a better crunch than this is,...... burn it
Yes
Technically yes, we burn the hell out of our fried chicken, but the chicken’s still the juicier than your life will ever be
Tadtathep Thepboriruck why u so toxic bruh?
@@kontaseefa4427 toxic is also an ingredient needed to make abnormally crunchy chicken
@@imnonene Damn your triggered for no reason lol
She’s my favorite insider host!
That crunch PURIFIES MY SOUL.
Why did I watch this at 11 PM ?
HotSTeh same here, now i'm hungry
Hohoho i found u hotsteh
GMT +7 UNITE! Now I gotta sleep it off before I can order some crispy friend chicken first thing tomorrow.
😂
2.23 a.m even worst I didn't eat dinner today
Nice video but I'm in tears, I cant believe what I see, I felt like I see myself from the past, it's because of that story we share pretty much similar story. My grandparents own a local restaurant back home and My Parents was the 2nd generation, my dad got stroke and passed away in 2007 but he used to sat in the wheel chair like this restaurant owner, back in 2015 my mom got stroke too and she pass the restaurant to my only brother. Restaurant business is very very tough especially family owned. I've been there done that, so hard! Wish the best for this family! God Bless y'all!
YES - this host!!! More of her please. So much better than herrine or whatever her name is

@Raymond Cunningham you clearly cared enough to type that out
Raymond Cunningham how’s life as a wet blanket like?
this is one reason why mondays suck ass
@Raymond Cunningham I do
Ok
Wow, how crunchy.... I would like to have those fries. I'm getting bored with kimchi
Too bad they don't do delivery to North Korea😂
@@Mr.Uzai_Dingbat lmao
Sometimes I love to eat flourless crispy fried chicken , As a Thai it's delicious to eat with sticky rice. That dish called Kaitod Hatyai in Thailand.
@2:20 Justin is wearing a Wiens' t-shirt. *_If it's not spicy, I'm not eating._* 🌶
Ohhh WoooOAaoooW!!
Listen, I came here because great big story shut down. I hope insider doesn’t let me down
ʟᴇᴇ same bro
Yup me too
wait, why did great big story shut down?!!? I'm out of the loop :(
Me too! I'm gonna miss that channel so much 💔
@@TonaldDrumppp Its hard to explain but heres an article on itvariety.com/2020/tv/news/cnn-closes-great-big-story-mobile-video-1234780559/
My burnt chickens: how dare you oppose me, *MORTAL*
I have risen again to spite your EXISTENCE!
I’m just tourtoring my self by watching this
ต้องไปลองสักครั้งให้ได้

At 2:44 “he grew up in the restaurant before he was born” WTF?! 🤔🤦🏻♀️
I think they meant his mom was in the kitchen a lot when she was pregnant 🤣
No, it said, "He grew up in the restaurant they started before he was born." His parents started the restaurant before he was born. He then grew up in that restaurant.
🤦♀️
This is phenomenal Thai food is hands down one of the mentors of the definition of “UMAMI” sweet salty sour and spicy your the man my friend my heart feels for you loving the food world and stepping into the diagram of one of the hardest jobs and having the master keeping his eye on you can be a heap of pressure but ur family is very blessed having you around may your father have a miraculous recovery prayers for him🙏🏻❤️💛
He talked everything just except the fried chicken batter😂😂
It’s mainly rice flour and corn starch, not the traditional thick battered fried chicken. The restaurants probably use this brand- www.amazon.com/Mr-Hung-Chicken-Pepper-Garlic-Batter/dp/B07TK2Y4M7
Ikr the crispness comes from the batter🤣
*Alert: Dont watch this while smoking weed. The munchies is pure torture*
It’s crispy but flavorless without the limited sauce provided. You should chicken out Luv2Thai in Hollywood instead.
Food looks amazing! Great parenting. Raised a very good son. Will definitely visit.
What amazing food and what an amazing son. I wish the best for you all!!
It's amazing the satisfaction one can get watching other people eating food that one will never be able to...🤣
That crunch is amazing ASMR ❤️ I started drooling 🤤🤤😋😋
I love the way he laughs
So loud that everyone wants to be his friend
This guy has a great descipline towards his work
I'm early
Edit:I'm hungry bc I watch it a 11pm
The crunch is all I need to know
What an amazing son!!!
The way she's overexaggerating her bites to showcase the crunch is annoying. Just eat normally. We can still hear it.
calm down jamal
What do you mean by over exaggerating?
u do know that's their job right. u probably haven't seen this other girl who also comes up on their videos, idk her name, this Asian girl. her exaggeration when it comes to food or whatever she is displaying is nothing in front of this last
gissneric true
One day I will come from India to get this crunchy chicken in my mouth
BTW great food
You know it's good if his Asian dad approves it
I just fell in love with this family! They seem so sweet and kind ❤️
Wish I lived in LA just to taste this
Love Thai chicken ❤️☺️😋
Love how humble you and your family 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️🤗🤗🤗 the fried chicken looks delicious 😋 Thank you !
You are truly blessed with such Loving parents ❤️
😔😢😢😢 im looking to his dad and i felt sad!
I eat there before! Though I didn’t know they were famous for their wings lol. They serve SUPER spicy food though
1:58 if she's not catching your mess for you like that then she ain't the one, bro.
I've been there a handful of times and my friend has known the owner for over 30 years. Have two friends that come from Boston every so often and that is definitely one of their first stops when they're out here. The parents are so awsome the treat you like family everytime you walk thru the door son is also is really nice!
Crispy Thai chicken looks bombdizle😍👍
His dad should not be eating salty food since he had a stroke. 5:57
It's probably what caused the stroke in the first place
I need this Thai fried chicken!!
Loved hearing about the family's story!
2:18 Mark Wiens fan
The most wholesome host I've seen in a while. Would love to see her on more content.
Poor dude he looks like he had a stroke!
He did
2:18 Chef is a Mark Wiens fan as well! 😊
You can tell that the restaurant is good if the owner and their relatives also eat their own cooked food.
I fell in love with this mysteriously beautiful lady who is commenting this chicken by watching bite into that chicken like a valkyrie ... Omg..
It's fried in corn starch not flour
This host actually describes what the chicken tastes like :D
Want to fly to LA right now!!
Anyone got a recipe for something like this? 😅😅😅
Check out Marion's Kitchen channel. She already post the recipe for this one, and as a southern Thai myself I can assure you it's quite accurate, at least for the marinade part.
You can also search for the word 'Hat Yai Fried Chicken', same thing.
Indonesia people seeing this be like : ooh ayam geprek 👁️👄👁️
I love Thai food. Brings memories of my trips to Thailand where delicious food are everywhere from hawkers to 5 star hotels. Take me back .... 😭💗🙏
I love Thai food .... they are just awesome 😍😍😍
*GASPP* Could it be?
A NON ANNOYING FOOD INSIDER HOST?
When his mother said: 'these are usually sold out before he has one'
Confirmed. This some good shit
I'm dying from the "CRUNCHHH!!!" sounds and i am craving for some really good hot crunch-worthy fried chicken......
when you start hot and good, more will follow and keep up the business.......
soo crispy
That's gorgeous Hatyai fried chicken!
0:50 correct me if im wrong, but did he just say peasant?
This host is very pleasant 😊
Dang I wonder if there’s a Thai restaurant that sells this in nyc
Old Guard,set up a fried chicken restaurant franchise; Thai Is My Eatafantastic: Kapai, Aroha from Nicko New Zealand, make T.I.M.E. thai food, wowderful internationally. X nick Kearney
I grew up in a poor area in South Phoenix. We had Chinese fried chicken places everywhere in the 80's and my time, the 90's. Best fried chicken in the world. I'm black. It's better than soul food fried chicken. Those mfs guarded tf out of their secrets. Guess what? I learned how to make it. It's better and I can trust it. 😄
I’d fucken do anything right now for a plate of that chicken HOLY SHIT CRISPY!!!
In Malaysia, we called the dish, ‘Pulut Ayam’ - literally means sticky rice and fried chicken.
Super video! Host is great
My father isn't a big teacher but I learned everything I know about cooking by watching him. Mad respect for the son coming in and taking care of business. 🙏
*the owner say salt like 20 times.*
Hi I am your neighbor for all my life in Sherman Oaks and though i have eaten at your restaurant i never had the Had Gai fried chicken ! now that will change... L.A Rob
The host is Miss California 2013, was runner up to Miss America 2014
Ok, the batter is Rice Flour batter with Lime paste. Of course Rice Flour batter is crunchy.
3:07
so... they just gonna cut her off when she's saying town she came from?
Nakorn... is not a full name of any city in Thailand. Please pay attention next time, editor.
I assume she said Nakorn Sitamarat. since that's the one in the south. But yea please pay better attention to what you edit out please.
Justin is doing an amazing job!
It is lovely to see the relationship between him and his parents.
There is love respect and a whole lot of support for each other. 👍❤️
