New Thainatown

Practically everything on the menu here is under $15. No wonder this joint is always buzzing. Sure you could stick with the classic massaman beef, green curry chicken or pad thai but that would mean you’d miss out on local favourite, boat noodle soup. It’s a fragrant herbal soup enriched with pigs blood (think of the iron!) that tastes much better than it sounds. If the garnish of pork crackling doesn’t win you over, the price will. A large bowl costs $9.90; the small is just $3.90. Say whaaaat? Opt in for pork liver and intestines for maximum street cred.
