Delicious Gui-tiaw Rua<\/strong><\/p><\/div>\n

Available from many noodle stalls across the city, it\u2019s possible to order this tasty bowl of pork or beef noodles. Both of these types are called \u201cGui-tiaw rua\u201d<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Originally it comes from Ayutthaya<\/a> and is made from rice noodles and sweet basil, mixed with the meat of your choice (\u201cMoo\u201d – Pork or \u201cNua\u201d – Beef), the vendor will usually add cow\u2019s blood or pig\u2019s blood into the piping hot broth.<\/p>\n

This is what thickens the broth, adding richness and a dark brown color at the same time. Very meaty tasting, this dish is unique because it comes in very small servings, and is sold very cheaply.<\/p>\n

Where to Buy:<\/strong> Vendors, restaurants<\/p>\n

Price:<\/strong> 25-40 Baht<\/p>\n

Top Tip:<\/strong> Gui-tiaw rua<\/strong> can taste quite sweet, so you might want to add some pepper to neutralize the taste a little.<\/p>\n
