Baan Phadthai (Charoen Krung)

A stylish ode to Thailand’s favorite noodles, Baan Phadthai serves multiple Pad Thai variations, from prawn to crab, with polished presentation and consistent technique. The sauce strikes a balanced sweet-sour profile, and the noodles arrive glossy and well-separated, with the familiar accents of tofu, dried shrimp and peanuts on the side. While the focus is Pad Thai rather than Isan food, the kitchen’s execution makes it a great foil to any Pad Mee Korat you try during your trip. Comfortable seating and air-con make it an easy choice for travelers seeking a sit-down experience without sacrificing authenticity.
