This is kuay jab - fat rolls of rice noodles in a peppery soup, topped with roast pork belly.
This place used to be inestimably more Instagrammable when it was at its old location, with customers perched on a line of wonky stools set against a dilapidated wall.
Its new location, which does a lot of takeouts, doesn’t have the charm of its old persona.
Those are dried fish-maw, a delicacy amongst the Thai-Chinese - they are rehydrated, then added to soups or braised in stews.
I think this is taken at 𝗣𝗮 𝗧𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗚𝗼 𝗦𝗮𝘃𝗼𝗲𝘆, once listed in the Michelin Guide to Thailand (2018-2019). The sweet green sauce is sangkaya: pandan-flavored egg-coconut milk spread.
