Boat Noodles

Kuay Teow Reua, or boat noodles, originated from vendors selling from boats along Bangkok's canals. The intensely flavored broth is dark, complex, and aromatic, simmered with a blend of herbs and spices. Traditionally served in small bowls, the rich soup is loaded with tender beef and noodles.
