The people behind Chiang Mai’s beloved Ong Tong noodle shop have sprouted up in Bangkok with a restaurant devoted to khao soi (northern-style curry noodles).
Ong Tong Khao Soi brings northern recipes belonging to the owner’s grandmother to Ari in a warm, light-yellow setting. The highlight khao soi gai (B69) comes with a creamy yet spicy soup and a tender chicken drumstick, while the khao soi haeng sai oua (B89) is a stir-fried version starring homemade Northern-style sausages and a slightly burnt aroma.
Do also try the deliciously moist poo ong (a mash of grilled rice-field crab's eggs and egg, B69/5 pieces), prepared in Chiang Mai and flown down in ready-to-serve little shells.
