PSA: Do not sleep on the rice & beans here at Mestizo! Order some sides for the table with your tapas and be prepared to be genuinely impressed by how delicious something so simple is. Our rice pilaf is flavorful and fluffy and the beans are stewed with onion, garlic and sherry, served with their liquid. Perfect for dipping chips or drizzling onto the rice!

Our Mestizo Rice Bowl, Surf and Turf Bowl, and our Carne Asada Bowls all start with a base of our delicious rice and beans as well! Have you ever tried our Rice & Beans?

Finishing our chef spotlight series strong, we have Chef Chuck of Valla Table who is joining us from NYC for our (sold out!) Baan Puen Dinner!

Chef Chuck Valla grew up in a restaurant family in Northern Thailand. He was raised by his grandfather, who was a butcher, and his grandmother, who owned two restaurants, one specializing in various gaeng or Thai curries served with rice and the other specializing in such Chinese style Thai dishes as khao ka moo, stewed pork leg over rice.

When he was still a boy, Chuck’s grandmother introduced him to the kitchen by having him grind spices for sai ua, a Northern Thai sausage flavored with chili, kaffir lime, galangal, and lemongrass.
“I was seven years old. I thought I was playing,” he recalls. “I didn’t know she was putting me to work.”
As a young man he also spent time working at his mother’s restaurant in Bangkok.

In 2012 Chuck began cooking Thai food professionally for Kitchensurfing, a company that linked private chefs to at home diners. He got the gig thanks to a former classmate who saw his Facebook posts showing off Thai dishes he made at home. From the very beginning Chuck’s philosophy has been to present Thai cuisine in a modern way, while retaining its authentic flavor.

After Kitchen-surfing, he worked as a private chef in the Hamptons before opening Valla Table in October 2020 during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic. The decision to open the restaurant was driven by a sharp downturn in his private chef business as well as Chuck’s need to have a place where he could showcase his creative approach to Thai cuisine.

Continuing our chef spotlight series for our SOLD OUT Baan Puen Dinner: Meet Chef Evan of norah • plant-based 🌱

A Portland native with a deep passion for Asian flavors, Evan leads the culinary team at Norah with curiosity, precision, and creativity. As head chef, he is the one who brings owners Nan and Prae’s visions to life on the plate— refining ideas, building dishes, and ensuring every plate that leaves the kitchen reflects the balance, depth, and intention that define Norah. His dedication and craft are a key part of Norah’s success story.

Six chefs, one very special evening.
We can’t wait to see you there!
