Thai Thai Noodle will soon become a local favorite
Cold weather always calls for an appetite for Asian food. Hence when the chill wind started blowing tonight, we wanted nothing but a bowl of steamy hot beef noodle soup from Thai Thai Noodle, which is just around the block. This small eatery just opened a couple of weeks back. Clean, bright, neighborhoody, and opens till 1 am daily. To top it up, all dishes are 15% off till the end of the month!
This bowl of beef noodle soup looked simple and unsophisticated… until we had the first spoonful! THE WORLD IS NOW A BETTER PLACE, seriously. The broth tasted meaty but clean, with a hint of sweetness left lingering in the mouth. The beef well-cooked and tender. The thin rice-noodle boiled to just the right amount of softness without compromising its chewiness. This bowl is classy and unpretentious.
… and with all those texture in one spoonful, it’s a joyous explosion of flavors.
We also ordered Drunken Noodle (or Drunk Man Noodle, or Basil Noodle), well, because it’s common enough a Thai dish to make it the ultimate test of any Thai restaurant. Not surprisingly, it’s another delightful find! The twist of the dish lies in a thick layer of white pepper sprinkled on top, and the fact that the beef had a nice charcoal taste.
