The exterior of this non discrepit shop is almost non existent for tourists
I am a sucker for a nice bee hoon (while vermicelli) soup, and there has been none finer of late than this little coffee shop, located along Sukhumvit 63. I will post the actual address below.
The bee hoon bowls come in 2 sizes Small and Large. Fresh from a short trip to Thailand, I tried the small bowl for 60 Bath (or about S$ 2.80 or US$ 2.20). The vermicelli was very soft yet springy and the condiments were spring onions, some shallots, minced pork and there was fried pork dumplings, pork balls and some fish cake.
The soup pork bone broth was rich and very tasty. with spring onions, pork bone stock, some minced pork
The owners are a husband and wife team probably in their '40s.
Today, I ordered the large bowl of bee hoon t'ng (soup) and was very pleased at the offerings (see below). Some tau foo (bead curd), pork ball, fish cake, fish ball, a streamed dumpling, a fried dumpling, minced pork, shallots, spring onions - the works.
It was springy yet soft and very flavourful. The spring onions were freshly cut and the dumplings were all cooked very recently. There is some fish sauce added to the soup to make it an extremely tasty offering for breakfast or lunch. The large bowl costs Baht 70 or S$ 3.50 (US$ 2.80) but very satisfying to say the least.
