Chada Thai is a Thai restaurant in downtown Chico that will likely not disappoint those seeking the pleasurable endorphin rush of spicy food. Their scale is from 1 to 4, and 4 is "Thai spicy" — making a cold Sierra Nevada Pale Ale or Thai Tea completely necessary in order to finish a plate. They offer a vegetarian menu as well. Try the Tom Kah soup and the peanut sauce. You will not be disappointed!

Here is their to-go menu as of March 3, 2010:

2009-09-15 17:39:06   I ate Chada for the first time at the Taste of Chico, and I really wanted to order some take out, but they have no online menu. I hate when places don't have online menus, they lost my business because of it. —76.105.34.216

• Perhaps a nice Chicoan will one day take digital photos or a scan of their menu and post it here :-) The Chico Wiki is the perfect place for menus. Good luck. —RyanMikulovsky

Tasty Thai, but maybe that was the MSG. I called after leaving to ask, and yes, some salads and entrees have MSG unless you ask that it be omitted. At least they were honest about it. —208.106.53.175
