Song (by Kin Kao) is a casual Thai restaurant at 317 East Broadway in the Mount Pleasant area of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, and is on the 2026 Michelin Guide's Bib Gourmand list, which recognises good food at moderate prices. The cooking is Thai, and the signature offering is the range of curries and stir-fries that anchor most Thai menus. Thai curries are built on pastes of chillies, aromatics and spices, simmered with coconut milk and served with rice, while stir-fries rely on quick, high-heat cooking and sauces that balance sweet, sour, salty and spicy notes. The exact menu should be checked with the restaurant, as the dishes offered can change. Groups typically order several dishes to share across the table, mixing a curry, a stir-fry, a noodle or rice dish and a salad or starter. Spice levels can usually be adjusted on request, which helps diners who prefer milder food. The dining room is informal and relaxed, with a casual dress code and a moderate noise level, and it suits small groups, couples and quick weeknight meals. Beverages generally include Thai iced tea, beer and soft drinks, and some venues offer wine or cocktails. Prices are about CAD 20 to 45 per person, which is comfortable for a Michelin-listed restaurant. Visitors should check the restaurant's own website for its current reservation or walk-in policy, and peak hours on Friday and Saturday evenings may involve a wait. East Broadway is a busy commercial and transit corridor with shops, cafes and other restaurants, and the Broadway-City Hall Canada Line station is a short walk away. Street parking can be limited, so transit or a taxi is often easier.
