Noodles can be a snack if you leave enough room for ice cream. That is the spirit here, anyway. Follow this Old Town sequence at your own pace and split portions if you want all three. No prizes for heroic ordering.
Dishes below are suggested orders. Check current menus and hours.
Yes, the bowl is pink. No, that is not the whole story. Start small, try the broth, and let the toppings have their turn before the chilli arrives. This is the savoury anchor that makes the next two stops look reasonable.
What I ordered
Yen ta fo: more than a pink noodle soup
Yen ta fo is the suggested order. Give the first spoonful a chance before raiding the condiments.
The mango gets the glamour; the sticky rice does plenty of work. Share a portion if dessert number two is still on the plan. A takeaway parcel is also an entirely respectable escape route.
What I ordered
Khao niao mamuang: give the sticky rice equal attention
Mango sticky rice: take a rice-only bite once. The fruit can wait five seconds.
Keep the finale small and cold. Pick coconut ice cream with a topping you actually want, rather than every topping you can point at. Eat it before the Bangkok heat makes the decision for you.
What I ordered
Coconut ice cream: a cool spoonful of Bangkok
Suggested order: coconut ice cream. One topping is enough for the first cup.
