View ProfileKang Kari Kai is one of the most popular dishes served on the streets of Thailand. Chef Deau's version pairs up a mild yellow curry with veggies like cauliflower, carrots, edamame, fingerling potatoes, then tops with fried shallots for texture. Chef loves to serve his curry with a potato bun on the side for dipping. The creamy sweetness of coconut cream and the subtle spice from red curry paste makes this dish delightful even for those of us that can't handle heat. For those who do like spice, add as much chili crisp as your heart desires!

Deau and his partner Tongkamal “Joy” Yuon opened Holy Basil in the up-and-coming downtown Los Angeles food hall, Santee Passage, earlier this year. Holy Basil focuses on central Thai street food, and has amassed a bevy of critical praise and attention from all strata of food media - from the Los Angeles Times to Eater to Infatuation. While Los Angeles is a notorious hot bed for Thai food, Deau focuses on his favorite Thai dishes while utilizing the incredible local produce found at various farmers markets, as well as quality meat and fish purveyors.
Deau and Joy are also behind The_Base, a line of hand-crafted drink starters featuring flavors ranging from Gooseberry Marigold to Blackberry Charcoal to seasonal specials like Lychee and Blood Orange Elderflower. The_Base can currently be found at Smorgasburg, and has built up a fan base over the years. In addition to these projects, Deau also hosts a pop-up called YUM, which features a menu of intensely-flavored dishes that encapsulatehis signature balance of spicy, sweet and savory.
