How to Eat Your Way Through Ho Chi Minh (Saigon) Like a Local
The best food in Saigon, Vietnam
October 1, 2025
Updated October 26, 2025
Undeniably one of the best cities in the world for street eats, Bangkok is a food-lovers paradise. From bustling back-alley street stalls to modern Thai fine dining, from iconic hole-in-the-wall gems to legendary mom and pop eateries, Thailand's culinary landscape is begging to be explored. Beyond the conventional pad thai, papaya salad, and mango sticky rice, there’s a rich gastronomic legacy of punchy, flavor-bursting fare – covering sour, salty, sweet, spicy, and bitter – that spotlights the regional differences in tastes, produce, and cultural heritage, best washed down with a frothy cup of silky-sweet Thai milk tea.



After visiting Bangkok more than ten times over the last decade, and even temporarily living there during part of COVID, it goes without saying, I’ve done my fair share of eating in this street food Mecca of a city. After eating at over 100 food stalls, dozens of fine dining and contemporary Thai restaurants, and drinking at more bars around the metropolitan area than I can count, this is my curated list of the cream of Bangkok’s food and drink crop.




Sai Nam Phueng Noodle Shop: This beloved noodle house is known for its flavorful chicken wing soup and homemade noodles, offering a cozy, local dining experience. The chicken meat is tender, juxtaposed against springy vermicelli noodles. Other favorites include yen ta fao (pink noodle soup) and fish cakes soup.
392/20, Sukhumvit Rd Khlong Toei, Khlong Toei, Bangkok

Rung Rueang Pork Noodles: This is an acclaimed, pocket-friendly Michelin Bib Gourmand restaurant, celebrated for its authentic Thai street food, particularly customizable pork noodle soups in either clear or tangy tom yum broth. At this family-run establishment, patrons can select their preferred noodle type, broth, and protein, as well as level of spice and add-ons.
10/3 Sukhumvit 26, Khlong Tan, Khlong Toei, Bangkok

Zaew (ก๋วยเตี๋ยว "แซว”): This noodle haunt is famous amongst those in the know for slowly simmered pork bone broth with a well-rounded sweet, umami flavor and tightly packed minced pork balls. Most come for some combination of the spicy dry noodles, tom yum fish noodles, or shrimp and minced pork balls, washed down with fresh pandan juice. Pro tip: Make sure to arrive before 11am if you want to guarantee a noodle breakfast as this stall sells out fast and always has a wait.
1 Sukhumvit 49, Khwaeng Khlong Tan Nuea, Watthana, Bangkok

Thep Pad Thai: This high-heat wok-fried take on traditional pad thai is backed by the same team as internet sensation venue Phed Mark (see below). Prized for its smoky flavor and extra large fried duck eggs with lacy, crispy edges, diners can select their spice preference and protein. The noodles here are notably thinner than the customary pad thai, and toppings span the gamut, from chicken to crispy pork lard to dried shrimp to tiger prawns. Do note that the pad thai here is pricier than your average street stall as the portion is big enough for two and served in an air-conditioned space.
2 Soi Bannasan, Khlong Tan, Khlong Toei, Bangkok

Wattana Panich: At this legendary, family-owned spot, the beef and goat stew has been simmering for 50 years! In a massive pot brimming with rich, fragrant broth, water is continuously replenished, along with spices and meat to keep a consistent flavor profile. The tender beef is best enjoyed with wide rice noodles, while the rich goat soup is gamier and herbal, the ideal hangover cure. Other variations, like beef tendon and beef ball soup with noodles are available, as are Thai staples, like a fantastic rendition of pad see ew.
336 338 Ekkamai Rd, Khlong Tan Nuea, Watthana, Bangkok
Lung Cheay Egg Noodles: A famous Bangkok street food stall known for its dry tom yum-style egg noodles with toppings like barbecued pork and soft-boiled eggs, Lung Cheay Egg Noodles started out as a pushcart. Its name translates to "Uncle Slow" because of its long waits as the shop is regularly bustling with locals and visitors alike.
Ekkamai Rd, Khwaeng Khlong Tan Nuea, Watthana, Krung Thep Maha Nakhon, Bangkok

Kuay Teow Khae -Street Noodle Soup: A noodle street stall made famous by one of the OG food bloggers, Mark Weins, this always bustling lunchtime spot is the perfect place for a fragrant bowl of tom yum soup with all the fixings (like fish balls, fish cakes, minced pork, tofu puffs, and the like). Go for the signature flat egg noodles and make sure to order the bowl that includes crispy pork and wontons.
PGGM+MFJ, Convent Rd, Si Lom, Bang Rak, Bangkok

ORN the Road: An unassuming joint, this is a great place to try northern Thai style khao soi with fall-off-the-bone tender chicken. Equally standout, the pad see ew is laden with stir-fried cabbage and greens, topped with huge grilled prawns and perfectly squiggly noodles, the chicken rice is succulent, and the garlic pork is beyond flavorful. Pro tip: order it with a fried egg for a complete meal.
359/4 Thong Lo, Khlong Tan Nuea, Watthana, Bangkok

Pa Nee Kung Chae Nam Pla: This humble restaurant in Bangkok is serving just one raw seafood dish (called goong chae nam pla), with options between shrimp (the most common), oysters, salmon or a mix of all three. The melt-in-your-mouth, marinated seafood is smothered in a zingy sour and spicy herb sauce, sprinkled with fried shallots and finished with fresh herbs.
2 Chulalongkorn 3 Alley, Wang Mai, Pathum Wan, Bangkok

Nhong Rim Klong: Another Michelin Bib Gourmand outpost, this Thai “diner” is recognized for its generous portions of seafood. The venue’s culinary showpiece, the crab omelet sees fluffy egg and abundant crab meat. Other favored dishes include garlic prawns, stir-fried salted egg yolk squid, and tom yum soup.
51 Ekkamai 23 Alley, Khlong Tan Nuea, Watthana, Bangkok

Pe Aor Tom Yum: This renowned Michelin Bib Gourmand restaurant is famed for its tom yum, of which there are over a dozen permutations. The open-air kitchen is constantly filled with the aroma of fresh seafood – crab, squid, mussels, and lobster – of which guests can choose from for their tom yum bowl. There’s also pork and fish ball options, as well as a selection for noodles and other add-ons.
68, 51 Phetchaburi Rd, Thung Phaya Thai, Ratchathewi, Bangkok

Here Hai: This sought-after Bangkok restaurant concentrates on all things seafood, specifically crab fried rice and other premium dishes like garlic fried mantis shrimp. All seafood is served with Here Hai’s signature sauce – a tangy green sauce made with fresh herb and spices. Despite the modest setting, this venue is even recognized as a Michelin Bib Gourmand eatery.
112, 1 Ekkamai Rd, Khwaeng Khlong Tan Nuea, Watthana, Bangkok

Somtum Der: A Michelin plate outpost, this is an ideal spot to taste classic Thai fare done expertly right. No frills, no modernization, just classic plates with the utmost quality in a clean, comfortable setting. Pro tip: The raw shrimp in citrus spice sauce are standout.
5, 5 Sala Daeng Rd, Si Lom, Khet Bang Rak, Krung Thep Maha Nakhon, Bangkok

Here Duan: This seafood-focused restaurant in the foodie haven area of Baan Tad Thong serves up some stellar crab and prawn dishes. The soft scrambled omelette with crab meet is not to be missed, neither is the spicy salmon salad, which turns the spice dial up to a 10.
1982, 1984 Wang Mai, Pathum Wan, Bangkok

Hoi Tod Chaw Lay: The go-to spot for crispy oyster omelet (hoi tod), this seafood-centric joint also serves other classic Thai fare, like pad thai and tom yum. The oyster omelet’s batter is a mix of rice flour, cornstarch and water, plus chopped seafood, like mussels, shrimp, squid, and – of course – oysters.
128/3, Ekkamai Road, Khlong Tan Nuea, Watthana, Bangkok

Talad Noi Crab Fried Rice: This late-night street food stall only opens after sunset, serving up toothsome crab fried rice (khao pad poo) to the after-hours masses. Succulent crab meat is wok-fried with jasmine rice, scrambled eggs, garlic, and fish sauce for a memorable evening treat.
33 ถ. เจริญกรุง Khwaeng Talat Noi, Khet Samphanthawong, Krung Thep Maha Nakhon, Bangkok


Jay Fai: Named after the eponymous Bangkok street food chef and icon distinguished for her tough upbringing, tenacity, drive and success as the first ever Michelin-starred street food vendor, Jay Fai is an absolute institution. This 80-something-year-old legend still cooks everything in her restaurant today and is easily recognizable by her ski goggles, slight frame, and strong presence. Her dishes are served in sharing portions (with price tags to match), ranging from the venue’s hero dish – a behemoth fried crab omelet – to tom yum soup, seafood drunken noodles, and stir-fried crab with egg, among so many more equally standout options. As this restaurant is highly popular amongst locals and tourists alike, a pre-booking is necessary!
327 Maha Chai Rd, Khwaeng Samran Rat, Khet Phra Nakhon, Krung Thep Maha Nakhon, Bangkok

Polo Fried Chicken: A 50-year-old fried chicken shop that is clearly doing something right, Polo is a must-visit. The venue serves up a variety of Thai dishes, but the namesake plate you’ll find on every table is the slow-cooked then fried whole chicken, sheathed by whole fried garlic cloves, and best savored by dunking the juicy meat in homemade sweet chili and spicy sauces.
137/1-3 Sanam Khli Alley, Lumphini, Pathum Wan, Bangkok

Phed Mark: Founded by admired vlogger Mark Weins (Migrationology), Phed Mark hones in on only one Thai dish, pad krapow (spicy Thai basil stir-fry) with diners’ choice of protein. The venue became internet famous because of its massive fried duck egg topper, with an ooey-gooey yolk that coats each individual grain of rice and meat. Guests can choose their level of spice and minced protein (chicken, beef, pork, squid, etc.) Be prepared to wait (from 30-60 minutes) even at off-hours.
300 Sukhumvit Rd, Phra Khanong, Khlong Toei, Bangkok

Ung Jia Huad: One of the top pad krapow and pad see ew vendors, this homestyle eatery is all about the best wok hei (breath of a wok aroma) paired with simple flavors. The menu is straightforward, affordable, and authentic, but isn’t the most reliable in terms of operating hours.
23 Sukhumvit Road, Khwaeng Khlong Toei Nuea, Watthana, Krung Thep Maha Nakhon, Bangkok

Lek Yai: Famed for its tom yum soup and minced pork dishes, this popular outpost is also a great spot for large crispy wonton stuffed with pork patties, pad see ew boasting incredible wok hei, and pad krapao.
1440 Banthat Thong Rd, Wang Mai, Pathum Wan, Bangkok

Nakhon Sanuk: This tiny daytime canteen specializes in Thai-Chinese style crispy pork smothered in a thick gravy and char siu over rice. Portions are generous for the low price and are best enjoyed with an expertly cooked egg.
Khwaeng Pom Prap, Khet Pom Prap Sattru Phai, Krung Thep Maha Nakhon, Bangkok

Som Tam Jay So: This Northern Thai (Isaan) style restaurant serves pungent, fiery green papaya salad as well as other traditional dishes like grilled chicken and minced pork laab. Adored for its spice-laden flavors, community feel, and popularity amongst locals, this all adds up to a real-deal Isaan outpost.
Soi Phiphat 2, Silom, Bang Rak, Bangkok

Mae Varee Mango Sticky Rice: An esteemed, 30-year-old mango shop, this is a fantastic place in the city to taste high-quality mango sticky rice. Each portion comes with an entire sliced, perfectly fresh mango, just-steamed sticky rice (sometimes dyed and flavored with pandan and butterfly pea), and warm and slightly salty coconut cream. The ratio of mango to rice justifies the higher price, as does the freshness and quality.
1 Thong Lo, Khlong Tan Nuea, Watthana, Bangkok

Pa Tong Go Savoey: This Michelin-recognized street food stall in Chinatown (Yaowarat) sells deep-fried then grilled Chinese crullers (you tiao) drenched in pandan custard and condensed milk. Especially desired in the evenings, this stall comes alive after sunset.
56 Yaowarat Rd, Samphanthawong, Bangkok

Hong Sieng Café: A historic, 200-year-old café in the picturesque Talat Noi neighborhood, is situated in a restored Chinese mansion along the Chao Phraya River. The tranquil atmosphere makes for an ideal destination to enjoy a coffee beverage or sweet treat (like tarts, cakes, smoothies, and ice cream) away from the city’s hustle and bustle.
734, 736 Soi Wanit 2, Talat Noi, Samphanthawong, Bangkok

Saengchai Phochana: A well-regarded, long-standing Thai-Chinese seafood restaurant, this after-hours eatery sports an extensive menu of seafood, pork, and Thai-Chinese dishes, like fried egg with radish, sweet and sour fried duck with pineapple, garlic fried whole fish, and wok-fried river prawns. Come with a group for a post-bars meal, and wash it all down with a cold Singha.

Baan E-sarn Muangyos: An always-busy, inexpensive, family-run Isaan Thai restaurant, Baan E-Sarn focuses on spicy and fresh flavors into the wee hours of the morning. From papaya salad to tom yum to grilled fish to laab, and stellar grilled chicken wings, this is where you want to be after a few too many Leos.

2nd floor, 104 Maha Set Rd, Si Phraya, Bang Rak, Bangkok

G.O.D.: This is a bar that blurs the lines between religion and hedonism throughout, including the bar’s name, Genius on Drugs. Full of sadistic touches (like a concrete cross, a church alter bar counter, and the bill arriving inside the holy bible), the drink menu is all about excessiveness. For the music program, think acid trip meets dungeon rave.
25, 27 Soi Rammaitree, Pom Prap, Pom Prap Sattru Phai, Bangkok

Bar Sathorn: At this bar, a part of the W Bangkok, the menu sees Thai-ingredient riffs on classics that represent the various epochs the House of Sathorn has witnessed during its 145-year history.
