De Parool recensie waar we trots op zijn.
De Laotiaanse chef van Boi Boi komt van Bird op de Zeedijk en kookt, zo wil de website, ‘authentiek Isaan’ – Noordoost-Thais dus. Op het menu staan inderdaad ­noordelijke klassiekers als larb (vleessalade) en som tam (papajasalade), maar verder zien we niet veel anders dan in meer generiek Thaise restaurants
