Khoad Yum Huai Khwang โคตรยำ ห้วยขวาง
Best for Spicy salads late at night with friends
About
Khoad Yum Huai Khwang is the well-known spicy-salad shop beside MRT Huai Khwang. The draw is an oversized yum loaded with seafood, which TrueID's guide to eating near the Ganesha shrine calls by the shop's own name, Khoad Yum; GrabFood's Ratchada roundup recommends the glass-noodle yum, the instant-noodle yum and tam sua. Google and GrabFood give hours of 14:00 to 03:00, while TrueID in 2023 listed 17:00 to 02:30 and closed on Tuesdays, so treat Tuesday as a likely day off. TrueID reported no parking in 2023. TrueID directs you to exit 4 of MRT Huai Khwang, on the same side as the Ganesha shrine, which is why it fills with people who have just made an evening offering. Google rates it 4.2 from more than 770 reviews. GrabFood's price tier is four out of four, which reflects plate size: shared between three or four people the cost per head is modest. Best for friends who can handle heat.
