Sawang Noodle

Small place and very easy to miss on the street. But food is amazing. If someone likes sea food I can tell this is a good choice. Menu is very simple but this local is famous for crab meat so you should try a dish with this. Portions are very small also so I recommend to order more food. Prices a lot higher then normal street food but this is due to Michelin star.

Another Bangkok Michelin gem quest. Small portion, prawn wonton is great, crab meat also clean and no bone. I ordered their egg noodle with crispy pork and crab meat, but maybe they got wrong, because the pork has sweet taste and not crispy at all. However, overall the noodle excepted by my appetite. Good service, polite. Kind of high price, but worth the Michelin award.

A noodle shop listed in the Michelin Guide, with around 5–7 tables available. I ordered the egg noodles with BBQ pork and crab meat (110 baht) + a soup (20 baht) + deep-fried shrimp rolls (150 baht). After finishing everything, I was still not full. For this price, I expected a larger portion. The noodles were topped with great BBQ pork, but there wasn’t much crab, and the overall dish felt quite oily for me. They also added crackling, which was too salty for my taste. The soup was standard. The deep-fried shrimp rolls were freshly fried, but the taste was quite bland for me.

I travel to Asia quite a bit and I understand that the portion size is much smaller than the West. But what caught me off guard was how small these portions are at the price that’s being charged here. It was like boat noodle sizes. No matter. I ordered more. After all if it tastes great, it’ll justify the size. I ordered the pork and wonton with soup. Then I ordered the crab with pork egg noodles and 2 orange juices. You can definitely taste the shrimp in the dumplings. Is it the best? Not really. Soup was good with some good flavours but I don’t even bother to drink it all. It was average. The egg noodles with crab and pork was also very average. I expected the noodles to just punch me with flavours but sadly, it didn’t. It was bland. I’ve had these types of noodles in Thong Lo and it’s much better. The crab was non existent. It was literally a sprinkle of it as if they scraped it from whatever’s left on a single crab claw. It was laughable. Why would you advertise this having crab to just give me something so non existent. I felt insulted. The only thing I enjoyed was the orange juice. Though on the sweeter side but it washes that garlic after taste. Overall I was disappointed. It was a good 11 mins to walk there. I don’t mind the portion size or the price but at least give us something meaningful. Total was 330 baht. What a waste of money and time.

Delicious bowl of noodles with great flavors! The marinated pork is really tasty and tender, and the noodles have a nice chewy texture. A classic spot recognized with a Bib Gourmand, offering high-quality food at great value. Worth visiting if you love traditional Thai-style egg noodles with pork or crab. Will definitely come back! 🍜✨

This is one of the best crab noodle we have tasted after our tennis game. The broth is thick and tasty. Food portion, though small, sits well with me being a small eater. My friends ordered 2 bowls each and added prawn ball.

The expensive noodle soup with pork/crab was ok, not so special. I couldn’t find the crab and crispy pork in my soup. Besides that, the people who work there didn’t have me a welcoming feeling at all. Just an average place. I don’t get the Michelin stickers, earlier today we had a noodle soup on the street for half the money and that was more flavourful and bigger quantity. Left pic at sawang, right pic at a street vender. Not worth going to this place.

Super good noodles — thin, springy and just the right amount of oily goodness! The crab meat is fresh and sweet, totally completing the whole bowl. Came in hungry, left very happy. A must-try if you love noodle heaven!
