• Gourmet Traveller, A chef's guide to Bangkok street food ↗their pick · 2022-09-19
  • Here Hai RestaurantEkkamai

    “The food is unbelievably good. The menu only has about seven or eight dishes.”

  • Khrok Mai Thai Lao RestaurantBangkok

    “Everything is good. It's an amazing place.”

  • Moo Ping Hea Owen SilomSilom

    “I'm crazy for the moo ping (grilled pork skewers) from Moo Ping Hea Owen. It's the best in Bangkok by far.”

  • Nai Mong Hoi ThodYaowarat (Chinatown)

    “I can't eat hoi thod anywhere else. They cook it differently... here they fry the batter first until it's golden brown and crisp, then they add fried oysters on top.”

  • Phed MarkEkkamai

    “It's the best version in the city without a doubt.”

  • Street Seafood by NoiBangkok

    “Noi Seafood is my go-to for a late-night supper after service. I usually go there between 1am and 2am with the team and we'll just tear into kilos of prawns and lots of fresh crab. It's just simple live seafood but cooked well.”

• World of Mouth (Gaggan Anand, authored rec) ↗their pick
  • Baan E-sarn MuangyosPhrom Phong

    “It's right next to my restaurant on the same street and we go to eat here often with the kitchen team at night after service. I love this place. I go and eat here a lot.”
