Chakki

Once you get there, you’ll find this unassuming eatery, that was half full at 1130AM, and comprising of locals only. It seems like a family owned business, with a grandma roaming around in sleepwear taking orders. A lady spotted us checking translations of the menu on our phone, and offered us the English menu. Fried wanton (S) 40 Fried spring rolls (S-4pcs) 100 Rad-Nha flat wide noodles with beef 160 Rad-Nha crispy vermicelli with prawn 180 Iced tea 5 per pax Appetisers came pretty fast, and gotta say that the spring rolls are amazing! We almost didn’t order that, and no regrets that we did! Something different, something peppery, this is something I will come back for~ I had the rad-nha flat wide noodles with beef, the noodles were amazing, a lot of wok hei! Gravy is on the sweet side, as is the beef - not really to my liking, but there’s the option to add on condiments like chili flakes, vinegar and pepper for me. Iced tea is refillable, so that was a bonus. Quite a number of people ordered the wanton noodles, but we were too full to order another main to share, maybe next time!

Very casual. No door. Narrow one way street. No air conditioning (I think – we were there in November, only fans). We’ve two fried noodle plates and they’re ok. The stem of the green veggie is tender and yummy (I hope is part of the leave). It was just right for us at the right moment.

We got there past 2pm but we were able to get the last order the crisp vermicelli, also got shrimp rolls & crab fried rice. The vermicelli was really good. Will go back next time!

Recommended by my friend, I decided to find a time for going here. A little bit walking from victory monument, I arrived the restaurant wifi is in the small valley. My friend recommended to try stirred fry big wide noodle and find it moderate. The beef is soft and easy to chew. I think the soup is a little bit to sweet and some chinese kale had a fiber. Tea cost 5 baht but refillable. Staff is nice and eager to service.

Arrived at 12.50pm there was no queue to speak of but I found out that their signature fried flat rice noodles Ratna was sold out. 🙁Had to settle for fried crispy rice vermicelli with pork. Total damage with tea 145 baht. I find the sauce for the rice vermicelli to be too sweet for my liking. More used to savoury version. The pork slices and Chye Sim vegetables were good, the latter crunchy and sweet. My Michelin journey in Bangkok has been one with more hits than misses. Unfortunately this one I have to chalk up user the latter as it was underwhelming and there are so many better ones. Perhaps it’s because of the rice vermicelli I ordered instead of flat rice noodles.

One of the most delicious crispy noodle with pork in gravy in bangkok!

Fried noodles with gravy FTW! It’s pretty simple stuff - fried noodles (wide/flat/vermicelli) with gravy and chicken. Sounds simple, but it is amazeballs - the noodles are crispy on the outside and soft/chewy on the inside, the gravy is rich and unctuous, and the chicken is, well, chicken. In short, well worth going to if you’re in the area… (Note, they run out of stuff fast - so be warned)

So, if you're ever cruising down Ratchaprarop road in Bangkok and your stomach's doing the talking, swing by Chakki – a cool spot with some seriously tasty eats. My personal go-to? The "เส้นหมี่ ราดหน้าปลาเต้าซี่" is a flavor explosion that's a bit spicy but totally worth it for the tongue party. Quick tip: Order that bad boy solo because it takes a solid 15 minutes, and waiting for the whole table ain't the move. Now, let's talk prices. It's a bit steeper compared to your street-side Rad Na, but trust me, you're paying for some next-level stuff here. This ain't your average sidewalk fare – it's a taste adventure. and parking? NoChuck your ride in the temple lot right across from Chakki. E S,o you're up for a grub adventure that won't break the bank but will definitely rock your taste buds, hit up Chakki. It's the kind of joint that turns a meal into a mini escapade.
