Famous Food In Bangkok

Who doesn't want to taste the different tasty dishes of different countries? Everyone In all countries wants to taste the delicacy of different famous foods so don't care we are here to tell you about popular foods in Bangkok.

1. Crab Bee Hoon (Poo Aob Woonsen)

For Thai-style Crabs, Bee is popular dish of thai, the glass noodle is generally the chosen carb. The noodles are usually soaked quickly in broth so that it softens, but quickly tossed into a hot fire so it can become firm without losing any flavor. The resultant noodle comes off as very ‘Q’, or bouncy. This dish can otherwise be taken with prawns too – similarly, stirring the neutral glass noodles with seafood soak in intense flavors. We have Singaporean hawkers that try to re-create this dish but most of the time they just throw in some dark sauce to emulate the taste. A good crab bee hoon doesn’t reek of only gravy and is well seasoned with pepper, spices with the fragrance of crab/prawn that springs right.

2. Thai Stir-fried Noodles (Pad Thai)

This stir-fried noodle dish is known as Pad Thai has a perfect balance between spicy sweetness from chili and palm sugar, as well as an underlying sourness that comes from tamarind pulp and lime juice and it is very popular dish of Bangkok.

The recipe to Pad Thai involves rice noodles, eggs, chopped firm tofu and often served with minced peanuts. The premium versions would come with prawns too.

Pad Thai is probably one of the most over-hyped Thai dish that most tourists know about though, seeing that there are many other dishes available that just aren’t as well-known. Just look through this list!

3.Famous Thai Chicken Rice (Khao Man Gai)

Thais like their chicken rice a lot of dryers, and the indigenous rice grains are thicker and rougher. It might come across slightly greasier with all the sauce added; hence I recommend this only in moderate amounts.

This is something street hawkers like to sell near the city hotels and they open till late 1- 2AM too!

This was my supper for a lot of nights in Bangkok. In terms of chicken taste, it fairs very similarly to the Hainanese version in Singapore – just in slightly smaller servings.

3.Popular Thai Chicken Rice (Khao Man Gai)

I never really liked Singaporean Wanton noodles which follow the Hong Kong version more closely and has this Briney, alkaline taste.

Most of the time the hawker versions in Singapore rely on the dark sauce to support the entire dish. The Thai version, however, is cooked with thin yellow noodles and not as heavily doused in sauce, although a fair amount of pork lard is utilized. I think this was magic just waiting to happen. When the noodles are a lot thinner, oil does not cling on as much so the entire dish doesn’t come across as too overwhelming. The first time I tried Thai style wanton was at the infamous Sab Sab x2 near Future mall but I feel its too touristy and overpriced. You know it’s a bad sign when are more tourists there than locals.

5. Famous Thai Rice Noodle Soup Bangkok (Kuay Jab Nam Sai)

Just as we have Mee Pok in Singapore, the Thai people are blessed with Kuay Jab. This dish is like a cross between Singapore’s kway chap rice noodles and pig’s organ soup.

It’s typically served with varied forms of pig innards and meats. The kway is rolled up and cooked, trapping the peppery soup in their folds whenever you take a bite.

The rolled-up shape captures the essence of the soup with a doughy rice noodle taste. This is a very interesting style of noodles that have not been transported to Singapore as yet and can be found in Bangkok’s Chinatown, Yaowarat.

6.Popular  Spicy Thai Seafood Soup bangkok (Tom Yum Goong)

Aside from the abundance of jumbo prawns, these Tom Yum soups are usually quite predictable with their choice of base. Pee Aor in Bangkok is a hotspot for Tom Yum Goong Noodles, they serve it in a creamy version.

The AA hawkers usually achieve this texture by adding condensed milk. But Pee Aor is exceedingly generous; they add the prawn heard’s innard into the soup mixture so it melts and intensifies the taste. This way the tom yam has delicious flavor from their meal meat of choice.

7. Famous Pork Porridge bangkok(Joke Moo)

Here is one of the tasty and famous dish of Bangkok. Thai-style porridge is a comfort food I’m sure everyone loves.

Comforting for a cold day, a remedy for a long night of partying, and a food that instantly boosts anyone’s energy levels, a bowl of pork porridge is something you will definitely want on your list.

Thai-style porridge is actually quite similar to Cantonese porridge, other than the fact that the locals add copious amounts of additional fish sauce/sugar/ chilli etc.

8.Popular Thai BBQ Bangkok dish (Mookata)

I personally think Thai Mookata is one of the best things ever invented. Someone was genius enough to combine steamboat and grill so that all the lard and meat juices could trickle down to form one of the most wholesome soups to bless mankind.

Always remember to refill the soup base with more soup so it doesn’t get too salty.

It is very tempting to go to a mall because of the air conditioning, but if you want an authentic Mookata experience try opting for the roadside stalls to receive a true experience. We have mookata in Singapore of course, but the unique seasoning of meats and the spicy chillis are something our local stores have not quite perfected as of yet. Nor at similar prices to boot too.

9.Famous Food Boat Noodles Bangkok (Kway Teow Rua)

I love the boat noodle concept because it means a variety of toppings with different types of gravy in one meal. Boat noodles have total in three varieties, chicken pork or beef; served in either a dark sauce or peanut gravy. It’s generally served exception of Tom yum flavor.

You can even order side-dishes like pork lard or gyoza to be added on. This is undoubtedly one of the more touristy dishes, and admittedly the Singaporean boathouses capture the flavor quite well, but they can never recreate the boathouse hawker ambiance by the sea.

10. Pork Trotters Rice (Khao Kaa Moo)

One of the Popular food in Bangkok. This dish prepared very similarly to the Chinese dish, Khao Kaa Moo has a sugary front, less vinegar and (relatively) less oil. The Chinese are crazy about their grease. As opposed to Pad Thai, this braised pork trotter food is one of the lesser-known dishes of Thai cuisines for tourists, but absolutely very tasty.

I generally prefer the ones served in the rural areas though – I remember having these after a military exercise at Kanchanburi and they just cannot compare to the ones in the city. The braised gravy and tender pork atop white rice produces a truly heart-warming dish.

11.Delicious Fried Chicken Bangkok (Gai Tod)

One of tasty and popular food in Bangkok Gai Tod looks like an ordinary drumstick from KFC, but believe me, this is on its own level. I do not quite know how to put my finger on how marvelous it tastes; perhaps it is the breed of chicken or simply the type of oil they use that makes it so fragrant.

Gal Tod is absolutely magical. The drumstick is lightly dipped in an oil and shallots mixture, so it takes on an exceptionally thin later of batter. Not so much till it becomes soggy with oil like the fast-food versions.

No pretentious Korean fried chicken marketing, no random sauce to distract the flavor.
