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

Rung Rueang serves what many consider Bangkok's definitive bowl of tom yum noodles, with pork broth sharpened with lime, chilli, fish sauce and ground peanuts over noodles of your choosing, loaded with minced pork, slices, liver and crispy wonton skins. The Michelin guide has listed it year after year, and the shophouse on Sukhumvit 26 comes with Bangkok's favorite piece of noodle trivia — a family split produced two nearly identical shops side by side, each claiming the legacy, both excellent, feuding gently over the same recipe.

The experience is classic Bangkok noodle-shop. Order by pointing (noodle type, dry or soup, tom yum yes), sit at a shared steel table, doctor the bowl from the condiment caddy, and be finished twenty minutes after you arrived, changed slightly as a person.

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.
