Pad Thai Fai Ta Lu (CLOSED)

It might be controversial to name the best pad Thai in Bangkok, so we’re taking a risk by saying that our favorite are those served at Pad Thai Fai Ta Lu. Here, Thai chef Andy Yang ( who built his fame with Michelin-starred Thai restaurant Rhong Tiam in New York City and innovative chef’s table venue Table 38 in Bangkok) presents his take on the beloved noodle dish, and it’s just as we like it—quick-fried noodles with a smoky flavor and aroma. You can go for a simple pad Thai dish or give it an upgrade by adding charcoal-grilled pork or crispy pork, both from Berkshire pigs. Our only rant: the portions are a little too small.
