Did you know the owner of Chai Thai Lao is the original owner of Thai Pepper?

Came here to post about Sweet Rice. Legit sleeper and prolly best fried rice in BR/Central area.

Crispy chicken fried rice is addictive

Thai Pepper.

I even asked an older Thai lady which restaurant had the best. She also said Thai Pepper.

Thai Pepper is solid.

Chai Thai Lao is far from where it was when it first opened.

Thai Kitchen is back on top for me.

Thai Chili is a hard pass.

I got takeout from there often when I lived in Shenandoah. The drunken noodles and crisy egg rolls were my usual order and I thought they were pretty good. What about it don't you like?

It's by (tasty) design. Gastrodiplomacy, a-k-a the Thai Global Program, works to spread Thai food around the world.

Good article from Food and Wine

And of course there are plenty of YouTube videos about the plan.
