Bangkok's Charoen Rat Road: Best Pad See Ew?

The street was buzzing, motorbikes weaving, street food stalls overflowing with delicious smells, and the air thick with humidity. I eventually found the place, a tiny stall tucked away down a side street. It was chaos, people jostling, the wok sizzling, the air filled with the aroma of soy sauce and sweet dark soy. But the Pad See Ew... holy moly. Seriously, the best I've ever tasted. My question is: Where do the locals go for a REALLY good Pad Thai, since the Pad See Ew was THAT good, I gotta know what else is amazing there?

Dude, if that Pad See Ew was that good, you gotta check out Thipsamai Pad Thai. It's a bit touristy, I know, but the hype is real. Seriously, the texture of the noodles, the perfect balance of sweet, sour, and savory... it's next level. Prepare for a queue though, it's always packed. Worth the wait, trust me. Alternatively, wander around the Yaowarat (Chinatown) area, tons of amazing street food stalls there, and you're bound to stumble across some killer Pad Thai. You won't be disappointed.

Wow, Thipsamai Pad Thai, huh? I've heard whispers, but the queue always intimidated me. Guess I should've been braver! Yaowarat sounds like a fantastic adventure too, I love just wandering and discovering things. Thanks for the solid recommendations; I'll definitely check both out next time I'm in Bangkok. Maybe I'll even try a different Pad See Ew place while I'm at it, see if I can find the ultimate one.

Their som tam is prob the most authentic I've found in the city, and the grilled chicken is always on point. Anyone else go here?

Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but I've always found their som tam a bit tame on the pla ra. If you want the real funky version, try the shophouse spots along Soi Udomsuk 26, near the night market end. They pound it fresh with fermented fish that'll clear your sinuses, and it's like 60 baht. Different style from the On Nut places, more Lao-leaning.

for som tam specifically i'd say the Isaan spots in Chatuchak are underrated, weekdays only though since the weekend crowd ruins the vibe. there's a stall near gate 2 that does tam pa with fermented bamboo shoots, super sour and funky, not something you see much in On Nut. if you're already heading north for Or Tor Kor anyway its worth the detour.

honestly the som tam at Krua Dok Mai Kao is good but what got me hooked is their nam prik pla raa dip with the raw veggies, that funk hits way harder than the papaya does. think most people sleep on it cuz they just order the som tam and gai yang. also pro tip, go before noon on weekdays, after that teh pla ra gets milder cuz they batch it for the lunch rush
