Thai and Chinese food

I absolutely love the crispy noodles at this old Thai-Chinese restaurant! The recipe dates back over 80 years, and you can taste the history in every bite. The parboiled cockles and Tom Yum are also must-tries. Plus, there's an air-conditioned room if you prefer a cooler dining experience.

Doy Kuay Teow Reua

Boat Noodles

Mi 08:00-17:00

Authentic and Affordable Boat Noodles

If you're in Bangkok, this place is a must-visit for authentic boat noodles. I got there early in the morning and ordered a variety of noodle bowls. They were quick to serve, and the portions were generous with beef. The flavors were spot on, and the spice level was just right, especially for someone who doesn't handle spicy food well. Highly recommend the glass noodles, flat noodles, and egg noodles with beef in boat noodle soup. Would definitely come back on my next trip to Bangkok.

Crab Omelette Obsession at Nhong Rim Klong

My love for crab omelettes led me back to Nhong Rim Klong, where I was once again impressed by the unique style and melt-in-your-mouth texture of their dish. Along with the soft cooked crab in omelette, I also enjoyed the Tom Yum soup and spicy mix seafood and glass noodles. The lack of a long queue during our visit made the experience even more enjoyable.
