Crab Omelette Obsession at Nhong Rim Klong

I never thought I would crave the crab meat fried rice and crab omelette combo, but it was truly delicious. The sauce elevated the fried rice to something special, and the portion size was perfect for two people. Despite the slightly higher price, the quality of the food justified it. I would definitely return to try more dishes.

The long-standing tradition of cooking the soup in the same pot for 50 years truly adds to the authenticity and taste of the dish. The atmosphere was bustling with locals and tourists alike, a testament to the popularity of this restaurant. The small portion of beef noodles was satisfying, and at only 130 baht, it was a great value for the quality of food you receive.

Hia Buay Ancient Noodles

Tom Yum Noodles

Affordable and Authentic Tom Yum Noodles with Quick Service

Hia Buay Ancient Noodles serves up a variety of noodle dishes, with Tom Yum being the top choice. The flavors are good, and the prices are hard to beat at just 50-60 THB per meal. The service is fast, but the lack of a parking lot means you might need to park along Witthayu Road or near Lumphini Park.

Som Tam Jay So

Northern Thai Food

Authentic Isaan Flavors in Bangkok

I am a big fan of Isaan food, so I had high expectations for Som Tam Jay So. The smoked chicken wings, Beef Namtok, and Lard Pla Duk exceeded my expectations and were some of the best dishes I've had in Bangkok. The lack of air conditioning made it a bit warm, but the delicious food and affordable prices more than made up for it. I highly recommend trying this place for an authentic Isaan food experience.

Delicious Roast Duck and Crispy Pork

I absolutely loved the roast duck at this restaurant! The shrimp ball was also a standout dish with its flavorful taste. The prices were affordable, and the staff was very nice and attentive. The only downside was that the fried platter was a bit oily, but overall, I highly recommend trying their roasted duck if you visit Bangkok.
