Wattana Panich

Another Bangkok Michelin gem quest. This phenomenal stall are located at a quiet road, you can easily notice it by such an iconic view. An eye-catching giant dark pot filled with broth and the lady owner at the front of the stall. The aroma of many herbs hooked on your sense of smell, so fragrant. I ordered their signature beef noodle soup. The taste of the soup so fresh, flavorful and delicious. Boiled for quiet a long time, the sliced beefs, tendons and beef balls were so soft and tender, not much effort to chew. Service was fast, prices quiet high but worth the quality. Highly recommended.

Authentic traditional Thai food. Went for the 45+ year old beef soup and was not disappointed. Fantastic soup. Without doubt the tastiest beef soup/broth I’ve ever tasted. Meat was so soft. Also the staff are so kind. Easier to order if you speak Thai or are with Thai company as it’s geared for locals. 10/10 fantastic

When I had my first bite of the soup, it was a little salty. After that, I added sugar and it was okay. The seats were very hot. I didn't know there was an air-conditioning room on the second floor. But the meat was so good. The beef was delicious and the ribs were good. It was my second visit and I was satisfied.

the beef broth is really delicious... it really tastes... they say the broth hasn't been changed for 50 years. the meat is very tender, it melts as soon as you chew it. there are various choices of noodles to suit your taste. the service is fast and good.

Broth pot that has never stopped boiling for years! Definitely worth the try if you love beef and soup! Price is reasonable too, especially for tendon, they give quite a lot! There’s no queue even if it’s Michelin but don’t misunderstand this as I feel their food is quite readily and easily made as they just need to scoop the soup and such. Only thing about this place is there is no aircon. But it’s not stuffy or warm.

Many posts in Instagram recommended this restaurant. We wanted to check it out what's the fuss all about. It's awarded 'User's Choice 2024' as we saw the sign on the entrance area. We ordered: Noodles served with sliced bees, stewed beef & beef balls - dry Noodles served with sliced bees, stewed beef & beef balls - soup There were 3 types of noodle; large, small & fine noodles. The soup one, was hearthy and tasty, but i was expecting an explosion of flavors and the broth was not as thick and deep as i imagined it would be. It's nice but a bit overrated for me. But the toppings were nice. The sliced beef was tender, stewed beef was juicy and beef balls had a springy texture. The dry one has tanginess (sour) in its flavor which contradict with the soup one. We preferred the soup one better. It's an easy & healthy breakfast option. The eating space was a bit crammed and a slightly hot inside.

This restaurant has a well-deserved reputation for its beef broth, and we can see why! The broth is rich yet balanced, not to overpowering. We loved their noodle soup and can't wait to return and explore more of their menu.
