Not life-changing, which is weird because the hype was unreal. I noticed a small, almost hidden door in the back. It looked like a staff entrance, but I swear I saw a flicker of light inside. Anyone else notice that? Was it just a storage room or something more...? I'm dying to know what's behind that door.

Probably just a staff room or storage. Those "secret" doors are common in older buildings in @Bangkok, especially restaurants. Don't overthink it. Unless you saw a shadowy figure wielding a katana and wearing a ramen bowl as a helmet... then maybe it's something else entirely. lol

Haha, true. I guess I got a little carried away with the mystery! It was a pretty inconspicuous door though... I just figured, with the name "Yayoi's," there had to be some kind of quirky hidden thing. Oh well, back to eating delicious Pad Thai I guess.

yeah Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but if you're up for a detour, try Som Tum Nua near Siam Square. their som tam pu pla ra is insane if you like the fermented fish sauce kick. way more pungent than the On Nut spot, just less grilled chicken options
