The Five Sisters in Charoen Nakhorn on the Thon buri side is a pleasant acquaintance

August 21, 2018 // 0 Comments

The owner of Haa Bai Thao – Five Sisters insisted that the name of the dish is Sen Lek Nam. That basically means the standard Sen Lek noodles with soup, but I can assure you that the bowl I got was far more tasty than the name suggest. Absolutely a pleasant acquaintance on the Charoen Nakhorn [Read more]

Nai Kim Thong and his beef noodles is worth your visit

August 3, 2018 // 0 Comments

I love beef noodles and Nai Kim Thong’s Beef Noodles in the Phraeng Phuthon road in the Sao Ching Cha is a good choice in that respect. A long standing shophouse with a reputation to protect. A bowl of beef noodles at Nai Kim Thong I have to say it was a lovely bowl, but I did a small mistake [Read more]

When I say that the aromatic five spice goose breast is the reason for their local fame, you know there’s Chinese heritage behind the cooking skills. Hokkee Pochana is a shophouse restaurant you don’t know about unless you’re a local or you stumble upon it, like I did, walking [Read more]

Nai Meng Noodles in 183 Silom road is good comfort food

June 23, 2018 // 0 Comments

Some say Nai Meng Noodles next to the Silom Complex Shopping Mall serves the best ba mee (egg noodles) in town. I don’t agree with that, but they certainly serve you a very good bowl. The noodles are home made and they know how to cook it. The add-ons comes in numerous alternative. aIf [Read more]

Khin Lom Chom Sa Phan is ambience with forgettable food

June 13, 2018 // 0 Comments

The best thing to be said about Khin Lom Chom Sa Phan, situated on the Chao Phrayo riverside, is the view towards Rama VIII bridge late in the evening. It comes with a nice breeze to cool you off in the evenings. The food on the other hand is a rather different story. View from the terrace at [Read more]

May 20, 2018 // 0 Comments

Some street food vendors take a fancy approach to their offerings. The approach to Neua Wooah Rai Tiem Taan to the classical bowl of beef noodles is using pieces of marbled kobe beef. The stock itself is a rather light broth, contrary to the murky stock served at many other beef noodle vendors, [Read more]

Porn Lamai is a legendary street food vendor. A volcanic hot plate is put in front of you before they start pouring the gravy over a stir-fried egg where it all continues to cook. It’s fancy, it looks good and the rad na phu khao fai tastes great. In addition, Porn Lamai is a rather [Read more]
