Another update on Hong Kong Wok.

 

A dish which I originally mistranslated as something bland like lo mein noodles turned out to be a really big surprise! Spicy snail noodles!

 螺蛳粉

 

I didn't realize what it was until later. Glad I didn't know it before. I wouldn't have ordered it otherwise and yes it was tasty.

 

What was it?

Delightfully  very al dente pho noodles with pickles, nuts, and some sort of small bits of thin dried loaf, perhaps snail based perhaps pork based ok definity mystery meat. The broth a very spicy red broth probably a powdered package imported.from China that has snails.

 

Taiwanese soy sauce pork rice bowl under sets. This is a famous dish  Often the meat is fatty pork belly but this wasn't but good because I could eat most of it. Boiled egg,. Bok choy. Usually the egg is soy sauce soaked. This wasn't. Includes a delicious side chili based flavoring sauce.

 

Needless to say I'm having fun checking out the shifting menu at Hong Kong Wok.

I'm craving for authentic Yunnan noodles, does it exist here? 

There's a Yunnan village in Northern Chiang Mai on the border to Burma called Aronathai, old lady at a restaurant got me hooked on it.

I seriously doubt that it's available here.

I have had it in Chiang Mai several times but long ago.

Went again, the chef recognise me and asked me about my opinion on multiple colour noodles, I like the feast for the eyes, not only the stomach, no  music disturbances. It's all about the food

Last week, had the Monday special at Rock Factory, open air music bar near Tree Town. Was a decent feed for 199B, pork was really tender and plentiful.

Only drawback was the SML, which was over priced at 95B.

Food looks good. Me & Mrs MD used to eat there often when we visited Pattaya, but it was called Rich Bar then.

Not a review, but just to say that Prime Burger have opened a branch at Central Festival on the bottom floor. From 2nd Rd go down the escalator and it is on the RHS opposite the supermarket and next to Mister Donut. Menu is as Soi Buakhao, with the daily special. Was empty when I went by at 4.30.

Better than McDonald's. 

My 10 year old son liked them, I liked that they fried the onions they put on. 

If you are on a budget and don't eat Thai food it's a solution. 

It is what it is, cheap burgers and they're not trying to hide it. 

Tried it on two locations and they are consistent.

Wang Kai Chinese Cuisine

Address 17/36 Moo 12 Pratumnak 5 

Monday-Sunday 10:00-23:59

 

GRAB APP for delivery 

 

Fairly decent though nothing to get excited about "authentic" Chinese food with numerous Sichuan offerings. Mostly ample portions and moderate prices relative to the local market for Chinese food.

 

You will need to translate the menu on Grab.

 

Those seeking western style Chinese steer clear.

 

I have been adding Sichuan pepper oil at home to enhance the Sichuan dishes which really does help. The oil is sold on Lazada or at the Chinese goods store on 2nd road a bit north of Pattaya Tai.

 

So bottom line this is a lukewarm recommendation  but it's good enough for me to order from fairly regularly.

 

Some sample dishes from Grab menu:

 

Hot and sour soup large 180 

Spicy pork ribs 180

Morning glory 119

Chicken Claypot 220

Home style fried tofu with pork
150

Firm tofu strips with Chinese Celery 129

Pork strips in fish flavored sauce 220

Kung pao chicken 180

Stewed pork belly 280

Shrimp fried rice 100

Spicy cabbage 100

Spicy green beans with pork 120

Bitter melon egg 100

Ribs and vegetables soup 190

Thin sliced potato 110

Ma po tofu 150

Pork liver 180

Beef and vegetables 250

Hot pan cauliflower 140
My order had brocolli instead

Chongqing  spicy chicken 179

[redwood1]

I disappointed in the Honest Indian.....The only Indian food I think is worth ordering on Grab and they are closed all the time....I think they are closed much more than open these days....

Yes, ironically soon after I talked up Honest Indian here they started to be almost always closed. 

I don't have a current replacement either that I like as much.

How we suffer!

I use it too but I'm  less than enthusiastic about the place so open to other options.
