Characteristic — One's Own Way
Jarit Thai Thai is Chef Angie Lim's expression of 25 years in the kitchen — bold, vibrant, and made entirely her way. On Richmond Street in Providence, she's cooking the kind of Thai food that speaks for itself.
Jarit Thai Thai | Our Story
A Name With a Philosophy
In Thai, jarit (จริต) means one's own characteristic way of doing something — the distinct quality a person brings to everything they touch. Chef Angie chose it because it makes a promise, and keeps it.
Twenty-Five Years in the Kitchen
Chef Angie spent over two decades grounded in the home kitchens and street stalls that shaped Thai cuisine. The food she serves isn't a recreation — it's a reflection of everything she's learned to trust.
The Dishes That Define Us
The Crying Tiger — grilled fatty brisket with spicy tamarind salsa — stops the conversation. Alongside it: Khao Soi Kai from the north, ka-pao built on holy basil and heat, and a pad thai Thai nationals have called the real thing.
A Room That Earns Its Energy
The dining room on Richmond Street was designed to feel immersive — green walls, cultural artifacts, a full bar stocked with the same spirit of intention that drives the kitchen. It evokes the noise and color of Bangkok without performing it.
Every Glass, Every Plate
The cocktail program follows the food's lead — Thai ingredients like kaffir lime and tamarind in every glass. Bold, balanced, and worth a second round.
