SomTum Fair Store — Restaurant in Din Daeng Subdistrict

Not a Som Tum Fan, But Loved the Grilled Chicken & Clean Flavors!**

This Thai place may be known for som tum, but since I’m not a fan, I tried their grilled chicken (2 thigh pieces for 120฿), fried chicken wings (100฿), and minced pork soup (120฿). The food here doesn’t rely heavily on MSG, which I appreciate—it tastes clean and fresh. You’ll need to dip the dishes in their sauces for an extra flavor kick, but that’s a good thing if you prefer healthier, less-seasoned food. Great spot for simple, tasty meals...

Hidden gem in the area. Literally hidden. Behind 7-11 and at the back of an normal looking outdoor food stall.

Anyway, more importantly they are air-conditioned and they serve BEER all day. Absolutely fantastic. All dishes come in small portions, order 2 if you are super hungry or a big eater and an average bill with food and "water" will...

Look for the long prep bar in the front, chairs on right and A/C seating in back. Wow, the best stir-fried chicken and basil and rice with egg I have had in Bangkok. 10 out of 10! Amazing catfish salad! 10 out of 10. The rice is so good here too, some of the best rice I have had...
