Learn the Spice Scale

Say 'mai pet' for no spice, 'pet nit noi' for a little spice, or 'pet mak' if you want it Thai-hot. Most cooks will default to a toned-down version for foreigners unless you specify otherwise.

Why go, and how to do it well

KAO SOY PRIN is a small northern Thai noodle shop on the fifth floor of Dusit Central Park, the mall on Rama IV Road opposite Lumphini Park, from chef Prin Polsuk, who has Lampang roots, cooked under David Thompson at Nahm and runs the one-Michelin-star Samrub Samrub Thai with his wife. The 2027 MICHELIN Guide Thailand gave it a Bib Gourmand, new that year.

The inspectors point to two bowls, the khao soi in a rich coconut curry and a rarer clear-broth northern noodle soup. Michelin lists it open from 10:00 to 21:00, from 09:00 on Mondays. It takes cards, and the mall makes it an easy lunch near Sala Daeng and Silom.

Tips for Visiting Restaurants & Food

Follow the Crowds

The busiest street stalls are almost always the best — high turnover means fresh ingredients and a recipe that locals vouch for. An empty restaurant at dinner time is a red flag.

Ice Is Safe

Factory-made tube or cylinder ice (used in virtually all restaurants and stalls) is made from purified water and is safe to consume. You don't need to skip the iced Thai tea.

Use Grab for Delivery

The Grab app works for food delivery across Thailand, letting you order from street stalls and restaurants alike. It's invaluable on rainy days or when you want to eat in your hotel.
