Bami Nam – Egg Noodle Soup
There’s nothing quite as good as this deliciously savory bowl of egg wheat noodles, mixed with a thick and tasty broth of chicken stock, meat and a few vegetables for good measure.
Ask for “Bami nam”, choose from mixed pork, chicken, duck, crab or fish (point at the selection of meats you want), sit back and wait for your generous portion of this Thai favorite to arrive.
Where to Buy: Vendors, restaurants
Price: 30-40 Baht
Top Tip: Don’t ever pick up the bowl and drink the broth straight from the bowl! This is considered very bad manners by most Thais, who use a small spoon to scoop up the broth instead.
