Phi Chay means "big brother" in Thai — and that's exactly how this family-run kitchen on St. Paul's West Seventh treats everyone who walks through the door. Pull up a chair.
The name behind the door
"Phi Chay" means big brother — the one who feeds you and always makes room at the table. That's the spirit every plate is built on.
A well-loved space, a fresh start
Phi Chay opened in the same West Seventh spot that once housed Supatra's, a beloved Thai restaurant locals still talk about. The neighborhood was ready.
Recipes treated as heirlooms
From aromatic Tom Kha Gai with fresh enoki mushrooms to bold Pad Krapao rooted in Northeast Thai cooking — every recipe is a family heirloom, made fresh.
