Land of Smiles

Thailand is Cambodia's neighbor to the West, and this forum is dedicated to Thai news, stories, reviews, blogs, videos, Thai people and anything else related to the country. A lot of expats have both lived and worked in Cambodia and Thailand, and this area is a place to discuss all aspects of life in Thailand and what's going on there. Most topics are about Bangkok and Pattaya because of their larger populations of expatriates and tourists in those cities, but this is for all things Thai.

So 2 nights ago went to the Huai Khwang night market for a walk and on the way back to the hotel which is opposite the market passed by a very narrow shop at 12.30am, a Korean restaurant, we did not notice it when we passed by earlier on the way to the market.

Owners are 2 Koreans brother and sister

That's it for the number of tables and number of customers it can hold

Many photos of stars so it seem to be quite popular however its a really small shop

Had 2 of these, came almost iced up so its cold and delicious

Free flow starters

Ginseng chicken soup

Egg and tofu soup

I am not a fan of Korean cuisine so I don't know how good but I have to say it is pretty good and we enjoyed the food.

Closes at 2am, we finished at 2.20am the waiters did't mind.

Durian is an acquired taste just like blue cheese to some people
