What is it?: The Silom spin-off of K Village's cult favourite No Name Noodle, taking the same rigorous commitment to a quality bowl of ramen to the heart of Bangkok's financial district
Why we love it: For over a year, No Name Noodle has made a name for itself as one of Bangkok's toughest tables to book, despite being a relatively inexpensive ramen shop hidden in a leafy community mall. That same low-key experience extends to Tsukesoba Sense by No Name Noodle's digs, tucked away in a hidden corner of Park Silom on the corner of Silom and Convent, which is conversely walk-in only (whew). As the name suggests, the focus is on tsukemen, in which the ramen is served not in soup, but to be dipped in a number of flavorful sauces and broths. The noodles have just the right amount of bite, and the broths range from light and refreshing shio to a hefty karamiso that could keep a Hokkaido winter at bay.
Time Out tip: Just like the original No Name Noodle, the number of ramen sets per day is limited (only 80 are available per day) to maintain quality, so get there early – the restaurant opens at 11am, and queues start at 10am
