Khao Soi @ Zouk Tea Bar & Grill
KHAO SOI
Zouk Tea Bar & Grill, Manchester
The best food on 🌏 is the result of culture hitting heads with each other. Khao Soi is one of them ; a synthesis of Yunnanese - Muslim (Hui or in Thai , Cin Haw) and Shan cuisines that came together in Northern Thailand generally thought to be the result of Chiang Mai’s place on the trade route through the Golden Triangle. . Calling it curry noodles is oversimplification. The oily and slightly coconut-creamy curry is cut through with sides of tart pickled cabbage and lime juice, served over flat egg noodles. It is then finished with a hefty handful of deep-fried noodles topping the dish. The spice is dominant but not too much chili heat. While beef and chicken are the most common meats on offer, pork (both meat and ribs) can be found; all falling off the bone or in moist and stringy chunks. You’ll want to eat every bowl that you see, regardless of the animal on offer. . 💰£15.99 📍Manchester
