Khao Soi

Featured Replies

Where can I get this Northern Thai dish in the Pattaya/Jomtien area?

I found it in Korat and Bangkok, is this spicy chicken soup brunch/lunch dish here?

Many thanks...

I'm a fan of this dish too but it's hard to find around Pattaya - S&P chain restaurants have it on the menu and it's pretty good, comes with some nice accompaniments : chilli oil pickled, vegetables etc.

The best one is in Jomtien on Chaiypruek, about a block or so up from the beach, on the right.

Also had a decent one at "Little Home" Central Festival, 5th floor some time ago.

Another on 3rd Rd near the Buffallo Bar.

My wife makes ( probably ) the best khao soi in Pattaya.

That does look pretty good.

Third road near the Buffalo bar? I live near ish there I'll have a look.

Forgot about the s and p version.

I had same problem two weeks ago then i founded in the end. Been there many times already. You can see the rewiews on the wall, only positivt, newspapers and costumers.

Khao soi kai 55b real good original north-thai food.

Loc: 3.road/soi leng kee. If you stay on the 3 road east side and you nose is toward south, walk about 50m and you can see 2 very big lightgreen umbrellas , there.

Close 18.00

Let us know if you like it?

Found it. It's thirty meters from Buffalo Bar on 3rd road. 55 baht of northern Thai quality cuisine I will be back. Great suggestion...?

Two places on 3rd Road.

The one you have found, Reuan Khao Poon, although the Khanom Jeen is their speciality, their Khao Soi is decent.

The other one is further South, about 300 metres after the Pattaya Tai junction, on the opposite side of the road to the above, called Krua Meuang Thai Neua.

Both these places are daytime restaurants and are normally closed by the time the sun goes down.

Khao Soi is traditionally a brunch dish in Chiang Mai and most decent places are closed in the afternoon or have run out.

Can you give me a reference point for Krua Meuang Thai Neua? You go over the Pattaya Tai junction with Tonys gym on your left and this place is on you right approx 300 meters?

Even if I'm living closer to the other Khao Soi restaurant near Buffalo Bar, I prefer the other one mentioned before.

Friendly staff, great taste.

I'll try it tomorrow. They are both within 5 minutes of me in fact this one is even closer than the first one. Amazing.

Cheers.

So round two. This place is literally around the corner from me. Since Googlemaps took those photos in 2012 the area has changed but the shop remains the same and it's just off third road..

This Khao Soi has a little bit more going on, more of everything and only 40 baht. Yesterday I went heavy with the chilli but today less so. Quality. When I was leaving I asked about the pots which were full of soups and currys. In Chiang Mai there is/was a pot lady at the the end of Soi 9 Moon Muang and she sold the most amazing Burmese curry (hang/gang ley?) and yes they had some and sticky rice and that has also just been demolished.

I will be back.

Good to hear you enjoyed it Angsta.

Its a bit of hidden gem that restaurant, so don't go telling everyone ;)

I presume you never had a chance to try Supnay Lanna Cuisine, which was also on 3rd Road ?

Their Khao Soi was also superb.

Unfortunately they barely lasted a year :(

I rediscovered khao soi on my recent second honeymoon with the surprisingly young, awesomely talented and amazingly clever Mrs NL last February. This is great to know that a good version of it is available in Pattaya. Noted for when I get back from the land of (very bland) phở.

Sadly I didn't. I lived in CM for a couple of years so this was something I ate regularly and the quality there is very good.

I'll be popping back for some more tomorrow...it would be rude not to.

Oh, and the opening hours are 08:00 - 16:00.

I have tried the 2 places on Third Rd. but the one in Jomtien, Soi Chaiyapruek may edge them out and be crowned the best?

Up from the beach about a block or so on the right.

Actually that surprises me, as I have seen them run out of things as early as 1pm.

The official opening hours on the menu or the wall, I forget which one.

I was in at around 1pm and they were doing a steady service.

The portions are bigger than the other place.

Can you do a googlemap like the other chap? Or coordinates? Failing that, get a name for it. The US standard measurement doesn't really equate here and is even more nebulous with the 'about a block or so' reference.

More info on chayapook location pls

I just checked google street view but the images are from Nov. 2012 and I don't see this place. I was there about 6 months ago. Hopefully they are still doing business.

You can walk up Soi Chaiyapruek from the beach, maybe 200 meters or so on the right.

If you get to 2nd road you have gone too far.

Not a long walk, Easy to explore that area. If I get a chance I will drive by and get a more accurate address.

What's it next to or near? I know the road but not the khao soi joint...

False alarm. The Chaiyapruk kow soy joint is now closed.

Went by today and she no longer is serving food.
