đșđž Must-Try Thai Restaurant in DC: Baan Siam
đ 425 I St NW, Washington, DC 20001 Remember to make a reservation in advanceâitâs super popular! We went around 1-2 PM (already pretty late) and walked in directly đ¶ââïž (so try to avoid peak dining hours). The good thing is itâs right downtownâno need to travel far. The main dishes were pretty good, but theyâre really spicy đ¶ïž. If you canât handle any spice, choose carefully! đ« Coconut Soup Similar to Tom Yumâalso sour with a coconut fragrance. Okay to skip if youâre not super into it. đ Crispy Pork Belly Rice So delicious!! And the fried rice was especially fragrantâeven better than the meat! Highly recommend this one. Must-order! đ đ Thai Vermicelli in Chili Peanut Sauce Mixed noodlesâjust okay in my opinion. đ„Ł Forgot the name of the curry rice in the top right of âyou can ask the server. Rice is served separately. This was the spiciest but also the most satisfying with riceâmy friends ordered two portions that day and devoured it! đđ„ đą Grilled Pork Skewers Tender, but nothing special compared to the other dishes. đ€ Lotus Shrimp Salad Sweet and sour flavorâpretty interesting. Appetizer portions are small, so itâs worth a try. đ§ Coconut Ice Cream Vanilla coconut ice cream can never go wrong! Served in a coconut shell đ„„, but the shell seems like a veteran (lol)âjust eat the ice cream. The coconut meat isnât tasty (but itâs fun for those who canât resist picking at every bit of coconut flesh đ). đ§ Thai Iced Tea Just okayâthe least smooth Thai tea Iâve had among all the Thai restaurants Iâve tried. Not about sweetnessâjust feels a bit rough? (You know what I mean⊠sorry!) #ThaiFood #RestaurantRecommendation #HiddenGem #WashingtonDC #DCFood #DCTravel #FoodieAdventure đœïžâš
