Tom yum rice noodles & pu pad pong curry lunch in Euljiro: Kkai 9
Kkai 9 is a Thai home-style restaurant in Euljiro, Jung-gu, Seoul, run by a Korean husband and Thai wife who cook her mother's traditional recipes. The tom yum rice noodles and soft-shell crab pu pad pong curry, plus a side of moo ping (4 pieces), struck a good spicy-sour balance without being too hot for beginners. With lunch discounts and a receipt review event, it's a great-value spot to enjoy Thai night-market vibes.
