Tek Heng Mee Krob Jeen Lee R.5, A Hundred-Year-Old Noodle Shop by Khlong Bang Luang. This is the 3rd time visiting Talat Phlu to taste delicious menus throughout the market. It can be said that I have traveled all over the community, both the road along the railway and the old houses from the reign of King Rama V. This time, walk far to Wat Intharam to see the bed of King Taksin in the small temple facing Khlong Bang Luang.
This time, I intend to taste the historical crispy noodles. Asking how historical? Well, Jeen Lee has been selling crispy noodles since the reign of King Rama V. Go straight to Tek Heng shop. Located on the bank of Khlong Bang Luang, next to the Ratchadaphisek Road Bridge, Talat Phlu, Thonburi side.
Order Mee Krob Jeen Lee, saying that "Mee Krob" does not mean crispy fried yellow noodles for topping, but means rice noodles stir-fried with a specific sauce until crispy and fragrant, with a leading sweet taste, slightly spicy, stir-fried with chicken eggs and 5-6 shrimps, served with chopped pickled garlic, sliced chili, bean sprouts, and Chinese chives.
This is similar to Pad Thai, a dish that Field Marshal P. Pibulsongkram invented with his ability during the era of believing in the leader of the nation - out of danger.
Order another menu for this happy holiday, Hae Guen, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, bouncy texture, slightly spicy, enhanced with plum sauce, sparkling, delicious in another way. After eating, stand and enjoy the breeze around Khlong Bang Luang, take a selfie, or charter a boat to cruise along the same canal on the Thonburi side, which is another way to be happy.
There are many delicious things in the market, and there are also old antique shops, but why don't people come to visit Talat Phlu often? I suspect it's because there is no beautiful and trendy street art yet.
