Exploring the Flavors of Chiang Mai: A Review of a Cow Soi Restaurant in Bangkok

Hey there, fellow foodies! I'm excited to share with you my recent culinary adventure at a Chiang Mai-themed cow soi restaurant in Bangkok. As a food blogger, I'm always on the lookout for new and exciting dining experiences to share with my readers. And let me tell you, this place did not disappoint! 

From the moment I walked in, I knew I was in for a treat. The restaurant was decked out in traditional Chiang Mai decor, complete with colorful lanterns and intricate wood carvings. I honestly felt like I was in Chiang Mai! 

 

But it was the food that truly stole the show. I ordered cow soi with crispy pork (moo glob) and it was absolutely delicious, with a rich and savory broth that was packed with flavor. The noodles were perfectly cooked, and the pork was tender and juicy, with a thick crispy skin.

 

Cow soi with crispy pork is a hearty and flavorful Thai soup that is sure to satisfy any appetite. The broth is rich and savory, with a depth of flavor that is enhanced by the tender chunks of pork. The noodles in the soup are cooked to a perfect texture, neither too soft nor too hard, and they provide a nice contrast to the crispy noodles that top the dish. These crispy noodles add a satisfying crunch to each bite, and they are flavored with a hint of soy sauce and a sprinkle of herbs. 

 I also appreciated the variety of toppings that were offered, including green veg, red onions (diced), chilies, lime and fresh herbs.I skipped the chilli flakes but loved squeezing the lime. 

                                                     

Another standout dish at this restaurant was the shrimp version of cow soi. This version was just as delicious as the one with pork, but with a slightly different flavor profile. The broth was creamy and rich, with a hint of coconut milk that added a subtle sweetness to the dish. The shrimp were perfectly cooked, with a tender texture that was complemented by the slightly crispy noodles that were served on top of the soup. The addition of a hard-boiled egg added a nice touch of protein and creaminess to each bite. Overall, the shrimp cow soi with a hard-boiled egg was a delicious and satisfying dish that was perfect for a light lunch or dinner.

  

Overall, I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking to try a traditional Chiang Mai dish in Bangkok. It's a must-visit for any food lover!
