WHERE TO EAT The best Khao tom in the world (according to food experts)

1

Siang Ki Khao Tom Pla

BangkokThailand
54 Soi Bamrungrat (behind Grand China Hotel)
Recommended by BK Magazine and 8 other food critics.
"For almost a hundred years, Siang Ki has built a reputation for its scrumptious khao tom pla. The tenderness and freshness of the fish cooked in the old-school style is so impressive that you’ll want to make the trek out here time and time again."

"With the shop's signature dish-soft boiled rice with fish-in the name, it's obvious what you should be ordering."

Khao Tom Bowon

BangkokThailand
243 Phra Sumen Rd
Recommended by Maureen Ow and 3 other food critics.
"The steamed minced pork with salted egg is another classic. It’s simple but the pork is tender and well-seasoned, which goes well with porridge. To me, having porridge for supper is a heavenly meal."

"This long-standing boiled rice and fish spot is near Bangkok's biggest fish market, and that's where the owner sources ingredients. The distinguishing element is the broth, made mainly from pork and fish bones."
