Another fantastic Thai restaurant in Copenhagen! This one is owned by Khun Boy, a true Thai, and even the staff I met could speak Thai, which immediately made me feel at home. What makes this place special is their boat noodles (Guay Tiew Nam Tok), available with beef or pork, as well as their Tom Yum noodles—and the bowls are huge! For a Thai woman like me, it was impossible to finish the whole portion. The Nam Tok broth was especially delicious, though I had to add more chili since they make it more “medium” for international taste. Other Thai dishes on the menu looked amazing too, but honestly, just one bowl was already more than enough for me. If you ever get tired of bland Western food, this is the perfect place to come for real, flavorful Thai food. Highly recommended!
