Try the coffee if you're in the mood, but this cafe is all about the nood.
They make the classics like Som Tom, but salads are not their signature. It's a good papaya salad, but don't come here for just that.
The remaining menu is overwhelming, and it's best to eat by number. No Stranger Things here, but number 11 is still the best. Chewy Jade Noodles form fresh spirals of spinach topped with slurp-worthy slices of tender BBQ pork and duck. A pile of shredded real crab turns it into a carby surf n' turf.
Number 18 is their other claim to fame, the Sen Chun Phad Pu. The stir-fried egg noodles are gelatinous al dente with a sweet finish offset by a potent chili garlic. The crab meat adds some extra savor, and the almost-omelet pulls it all together while holding in the moisture.
They're also known for the boat noodle soup, but I couldn't eat any more that day. Their noodle dishes are hearty and filling, and if the soups are anything like the stir fry, I'll be back for another slurp.
