DAKZEN: A No-Fuss Thai Gem in Somerville! 🍛🔥
📍 195 Elm St, Somerville, MA 02144 ⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯ A Thai restaurant highly recommended by many! 🍛 Their portions are just right—one dish per person is perfect. They provide four condiments at the table for you to customize your flavor. When you enter, they hand you a menu, and you find your own seat. Someone takes your order shortly after, and you pay immediately. 💰 Water is self-serve, utensils are self-pickup, and you clear your own plates after eating—it’s like making yourself at home! 😅 ⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯ 🍢 Rook Chin Tod Three types of meatballs: pork 🐷, beef 🐮, and fish 🐟. A tasty appetizer, but be careful—they’re served piping hot! 🔥 🍜 Khao Soi A rich curry noodle soup—very flavorful! There’s a side of chili oil 🌶️—I tried it separately first (mild), but mixing it in brought the heat! 😅 I got the pork version 🐷—the meat was tender, and the mix of crispy and wide noodles was fun. 🍝 Pad Kee Mow Like Thai-style dry-fried wide rice noodles! A bit heavy on pepper at first, but so addictive—I couldn’t stop eating! Less oily than Cantonese-style chow fun, and the veggies balanced it well. 🥤 Thai Iced Tea Super sweet and loaded with ice—we drank half, and the rest was just ice 😂 If you order, ask for less ice! #FoodReview #ThaiFood #DAKZEN #SomervilleEats #BostonFoodie #NoodleLover #SpicyFood #EatLikeALocal 🍜🔥
