🍽️ Classic Dishes Tasting Notes

Crab Fried Rice (140 THB)

The Thai jasmine rice is perfectly separated, dry, and full of wok aroma. Best of all, you can taste strands of sweet, fresh crab meat. The seasoning is just right and pairs wonderfully with chili fish sauce. This signature dish is an absolute must-order!

Thai Fresh Shrimp Pad Thai (99 THB)

A classic Thai national dish. The rice noodles absorb the sauce while staying chewy, paired with fresh, bouncy shrimp, crushed peanuts, and bean sprouts for a rich, layered flavor that keeps you coming back for more.

Thai Omelette (120 THB)

This seemingly simple omelette is one of the souls of Thai cuisine.

The exterior is golden, crispy, and fluffy, while the inside remains soft and eggy. The fried aroma paired with hot white rice is simply divine.

Signature Fried Chicken Wings (120 THB)

The skin is fried to a crispy perfection, and you can taste the juicy sweetness of the meat. The well-marinated chicken is aromatic and makes a great appetizer or side dish— a safe, classic choice that both adults and kids will love.

🥤 Desserts and Drinks

• Chrysanthemum Tea (40 THB): Features a light, sweet herbal aroma. Served cold, it’s perfect for cooling down and balancing the rich spices of Thai dishes.

• Grass Jelly (40 THB): The perfect ending to a summer lunch! This cool, smooth grass jelly differs from Taiwanese-style grass jelly with a slight chewiness that makes it especially delicious!!

• Ice Cream (40 THB)

The first bite delivers rich coconut flavor with chewy coconut pieces inside, perfectly concluding this hearty lunch.

📝 Summary

Krua Apsorn truly lives up to its reputation as a highly recommended restaurant. The dishes are authentic, the ingredients are high quality, and the prices are very reasonable. With a full table of food and drinks, we enjoyed high-quality Thai cuisine for under 200 THB per person on average. If you’re planning a trip to Bangkok soon, we highly recommend adding this place to your itinerary!
