Eating Thai street food in Boston? -9Zaab

đŸŒ¶ïž 9Zaab Thai Street Food: Boston’s Casual Thai Gem—Crispy Tofu Steals the Show I’ve been on a Thai food kick lately—two amazing spots in AZ set the bar high, and this Somerville street-food joint? It came close. Saturday plans: art, bingsu, and this—here’s what hit (and what didn’t). 🌟 The Must-Orders Tofu Triangles: đŸ„ą Obsessed. Crispy, shatteringly golden on the outside, but somehow silky soft inside. The sweet, tangy dipping sauce ties it all together—bright, balanced, and addictive. Easily the best dish of the meal. Offal Soup: đŸ„˜ Not as good as the Seattle version I love, but still excellent. Rich, savory broth with tender bits of offal (no gaminess), herbs, and veggies. Comforting and full of depth—perfect for cold days (or Thai food fanatics). Mama Super Zaab: 🍜 A twist on tom yum—thick, curry-like (thanks to coconut milk) instead of brothy. Loaded with shrimp, meatballs, egg, ramen, and tiny mushrooms. Spicy, creamy, and hearty—like a “thai hot pot in a bowl.” 😊 Solid, But Not Spectacular Green Papaya Salad: đŸ„— Reliable, as always. Crunchy, spicy, and slightly sweet—no surprises, but satisfying. Green Curry: 🍛 Meh. The curry itself is mild and forgettable, but the bamboo shoots inside? Fresh and tender. Skip the curry, but ask for extra (bamboo) if you can. 😐 The Letdowns Khao Na Gai: 🍗 A complimentary “roast chicken rice bowl”—dry chicken, bland rice, no flavor. Skip (even if it’s free). Mango Sticky Rice: 🍚 The mango was underripe (too tart), and the rice lacked that “creamy coconut” kick. Crying Thaiger’s version is still my gold standard—that’s how it’s done. ✹ Vibe Casual, no-fuss, and authentic—like eating at a Bangkok street stall. Perfect for a quick, flavorful meal without the frills. Budget Score: 4/5. Affordable portions, with standout dishes that justify every cent. 9Zaab isn’t life-changing, but it’s a solid pick for crave-worthy Thai street food. Go for the tofu triangles and offal soup—you won’t regret it. 📍 9Zaab Thai Street Food (Somerville location—check the address!) #BostonThai #StreetFoodVibes #ThaiComfortFood
