Pe Aor Tom Yum Kung Noodle - Bangkok    Share

Tom Yum Kung soup is superb! Very flavourful and strong. Noodles on menus are all good to try! But waiting for 20 minutes or so at a shop tucked in a shabby back alley could possibly put off customers. The best sale lobster noodles is instagram-able but simply overrated. It’s very expensive at B1,500 considering the overcrowded tables making diners not comfortably seated.

The queue was generally short but you have to wait opposite the store. The road outside is relatively wet so you have to be careful or end up with wet footwear! Once ushered in and you get a seat, you'll get a large menu in English and Thai with great pictorial example of the food. Generally cost about 100-120 baht. The Tom yum I ordered costs 120baht. But if you want the lobster dish, it would be 450baht (200g lobster) and for their signature dish (it's huge bowl! Good for 2-4pax), it would be 1500baht now (at least 400g lobster, it was 1200baht previously). Be warned though, the spiciness is moderate so be prepared with milk if you can't take spice! Otherwise, yes, this place lives up to its hype.

Went to try after seeing the positive reviews. Totally disappointed. River prawns were not fresh.. meat was flaky. Tom yum noodles were so so. Can easily find similar or better (eg. Boat noodles at victory monument). Prices were high. Do not be cheated into trying this. Mainly visited by tourists scammed by the reviews.

Google Map reviews more on positive side which convinced me to have it a try of this food stall. After a 30-minute queue, why not order the signature dish, the most expensive and looking good one. I admitted the signature dish on the menu and in Google Map reviews made me mouth-watering very much. The dish eventually served in 20 minutes. The appearance indeed looked fantastic and no way you didn't take any picture to share with your friends. Most disappointed, the chewy squid, prawn and lobster had no taste at all. All were frozen products. Those were believed having been defrosted in water for a very long time or been boiled in water for too long. The taste was plain. If those didn't come with Tom Yam soup, you may find it hard to swallow it. We asked the lady boss for a pair of scissors by gestures. She might have been misled that we wanted her to cut the squid and lobster for us. She was looking cool without saying a single word that doesn't mean she was impolite. She is nice. In short, I definitely would not go back again. Thank you very much for the dishonest reviews, Youtubers' comments, and those taste bud retarded. It wasted my time and money!!!

Self proclaimed best Tom Yum in the business. I tried the ground pork with egg and got a side of the shrimp spring rolls. Soup base was decent but nothing spectacular. Wide rice noodles went well with it. The shrimp spring rolls were the better of the two dishes I ordered. Lots of other things on the menu so if I eat there again my review may change.
