The Tom Yum here is top-notch, probably the best in Thailand. The balance of flavors was perfect, with just the right amount of heat. The noodles were cooked perfectly and still had a nice texture. Despite it being busy, we were seated quickly and enjoyed every bite of our meal.
The service at this restaurant was quick and efficient, making the dining experience enjoyable. The crispy pork was hands down the best I've had in Bangkok so far. The savory and peppery soup was a nice complement to the meal. The seating was ample, and we didn't have to wait in line to be seated, which was a plus. I will definitely be returning for more of that crispy pork.
Khao Gaeng Jek Pui (Je Chie) is a hidden gem in Samphanthawong, offering authentic Thai street curries that locals and tourists alike rave about. The simplicity of the setup, with just a couple dozen red plastic stools in an alleyway, enhances the experience, focusing entirely on the food. The curries are diverse, flavorful, and prepared from scratch, making it a must-visit spot for anyone in the Chinatown area.
Arunwan is a bustling spot in Bangkok, offering a delightful experience with its tasty pork soup, which combines rich porky flavors with a hint of vegetables. The noodles are decent, but the highlight is the variety of well-cooked and flavorful meats. The crispy fried pork is a must-try, adding a lovely crunch to the meal. It's a busy place, but the value for money is undeniable.

Do I have to eat on the street?
No! Not all the Bangkok street food comes from a humble cart on the side of the road. Some do, some are a collection of stalls in a local market or a traditional shophouse that has tables. If you're worried about cleanliness, stick with busy places as the ingredients will be fresh. You will miss an essential part of Thai culture if you don't try!

This medium-sized weekday market offers a great selection of food with two large dining areas, making it a favorite despite the heat. Prices are very reasonable compared to other markets, and while some shops stay open until 5 pm, it's best to visit in the morning or around lunchtime for the freshest options.
The fried noodles at Ann Guay Tiew Kua Gai are a standout, offering a distinctive wok hay flavor that leaves you craving more. The fried wontons are also a highlight, being light and delicious. It's easy to overindulge, so pace yourself to fully enjoy the meal. Arriving early is advisable as the restaurant quickly fills up, but the experience is worth the effort.
I live in central Bangkok and love finding new, cozy restaurants. I'm especially keen on places with outdoor seating by the river, rather than upscale dining.
The pork leg at this restaurant is worth trying - tasty and melts in your mouth. The prices are reasonable for the quality of food. Service is fast and the atmosphere is lively. Highly recommend!
This shophouse eatery has a rustic charm and serves a unique jok with a mildly smoky flavor, featuring loose pork meatballs that are both hearty and chewy. Despite being packed with locals in the morning, the service is efficient, with English menus available for easy ordering. The prices are reasonable, making it a worthwhile stop for those seeking a taste of traditional Thai rice porridge.
Tried the aubergines with minced pork and rice, and it was just okay. There wasn't much meat, mostly aubergines, and the service was pretty indifferent. The menu is quite spicy, which isn't my preference, so I probably won't come back. Overall, a mediocre experience.
