Kaphrao Tee Phung (Belly-punching Basil)

 

On Sukhumvit, 6 km North of Pattaya, Southbound side

 

XWMC+43 Pattaya City, Bang Lamung District, Chon Buri

 

They do khanom jeen and stir-fries. 50 Baht for a stir-fry. Very clean and a lot of care taken to make sure everything was done well. Open 7:30 am to 4:45 pm

 

Best Pad Krapow in town! (For my taste)

 

Pad Krapow may be the national dish of Thailand but it varies quite a lot from place to place.

 

Years ago the version at the long closed Boat Restaurant on 2nd road was my ideal Pad Krapow.

 

But since then I eat it less because I haven't found a place that does it my way.

 

Well now I have.

 

Not only does this place have the best Pad Krapow in town (for my taste) but is also in the running for an exceptionally good basic Made to Order restaurant in general (with a few odd quirks).

 

The place is called Heo-Kaow Kitchen aka Hor Khao Restaurant no English sign on Thepprasit road beach side in the same block coming from Tappraya.

 

But you don't want to eat there!

 

Why? 

 

Because it's a smoke fest in there from all the cooking although you might want to go once to meet the wonderful friendly proprietor lady chef.

 

No English menu in the restaurant.

 

Order on GRAB instead which has an English menu.

 

Same prices as the restaurant.

 

Typical Thai style price level like 60 baht Pad Krapow rice with egg and 150 seafood tomyum which might seem a little high but it's packed with seafood.

 

Everything I've had there so far is very good and expect that will continue. But here's the glitch -- no salads (yams) and no curries. But other than that the menu is robust and tom kha gai might substitute OK for a curry. Also no pad Thai which I give it points for. 

 

On the grab menu there is a spice level list in Thai.

 

The top one is no spice

The next two are low spice (fresh or dried chile)

The next two medium spice

The last two very spicy

 

Special requests are followed precisely. Such as runny egg (I wrote in Thai on Grab) and minced meat (if you choose chicken, you need to say, pork has the option).

 

One thing that really amazed me is that on one order I asked for no spice on one dish and top spice on another and that's how they came!

 

Almost all Thai restaurants will peg you spice wise and do all the dishes one way or the other. In other words if you ask for mild pak boong and spicy tom yum you'll likely get mild everything or spicy everything. 

 

I don't know that she really needs the extra business, but now you know. Don't all order at once.

To add, the recommended Thai restaurant above is in Jomtien if you didn’t know those streets.

So delivery to Jomtien and south and central Pattaya should be good.
