Noodle restaurants in Thailand

  1. A

    Lung Lek

    In the past, Ayuthayans got their noodle fix from boat-based vendors who hocked their bowls along the city’s canals and rivers. Today the vessels are all landlocked, but the famous kǔaytǐaw ruea (boat noodles) remain as popular as ever. Lung Lek serves incredibly intense kǔaytǐaw ruea with pork or beef. Look for the open-air tent-like structure.

  2. Meng Kee Noodle Shop

    Leave the neon lights behind and venture north into Naklua for some authentic Chinese noodles and roasted duck. This open-air mom-and-pop stop also dishes out unusual finds such as salty-sweet bamboo soup. It'll be one of your cheapest meals in Pattaya, even with the ฿10 sŏrng·tăa·ou ride.

  3. Paa Lek

    In the past, Ayuthayans got their noodle fix from boat-based vendors who hocked their bowls along the city’s canals and rivers. Today the vessels are all landlocked, but popular, but not too spicy, is Paa Lek, a sprawling roadside stall next door to the city’s telephone authority.

    Saisowo

    When a place is this popular with locals, it must be doing something right. This long-established noodle spot has a few surprise options, such as the excellent gŏoay đĕeo đôm yam kài kem (noodle soup with salty eggs).
