Summer Thai Tastes @ The Emerald Coffee Shop

Khao Chae is an ancient Thai dish with a fascinating history. Believed to have originated from the Mon people, it was traditionally offered to deities and served to monks during the Songkran festival. Later, during the reign of King Rama IV, Chao Chom Marnda Sonklin, who was of Mon descent, introduced Khao Chae to the Thai royal court. Since then, it has become a beloved summer dish enjoyed for its refreshing qualities.
