Tien Song Ped Yang knows their duck

May 8, 2015 // 4 Comments

I love duck when properly made. It’s also an ingredient that’s easy to fuck up and many do just that. Also in Bangkok. At Tien Song Ped Yang they have chosen the quality route and deliver good and tasty stuff that can explain the more than 65 years in business and the high concentration [Read more]

Chicken rice – Jae Wa is the short answer

May 2, 2015 // 1 Comment

Jae Wa has been around for less than 20 years, but is certainly a contender to serving the best khao man gai (oily rice with chicken) in Bangkok. A lovely dish at it’s best, but terrible boring most places, due to a number of possible pitfalls. In 2011 CNN listed it as number 45 on the [Read more]

Bangkok Baking Company is one of those who does, in a city where you sometimes feel there are more coffee [Read more]

Tom Yam Kung – Excellence at Mitr Ko Yuan

March 27, 2015 // 7 Comments

Few dishes and even fewer soups, if any, are as good as Tom Yam Kung, the famous Thai shrimp soup. Unfortunately there are quite some pit falls in making it. Mitr Ko Yuan avoids them all. The soup is delicious and tasty with a good acidity base. One of the better once in town. The owner does his [Read more]

Nay Lek Uan – street food legend high on spice

March 20, 2015 // 2 Comments

The crown of pepper. We’re talking about the white one. Lots of it. Bags to be honest. They call it kuay jab. It means rice noodles in a clear soup with crispy pork, and if you want, pork entrails. The soup has its origin in Southern China, but as with many other dishes typical for [Read more]
