Hello, Meeting Point friends! Today we have a great place to share: Khanom Jeen Baan Phu Karn.
This one is for everyone who loves to eat their way around Thailand, from office workers to students, whether you live in Bangkok or are just passing through Bang Lamphu. Khanom Jeen Baan Phu Karn (Soi Klang) in Bang Lamphu is a standout shop with bold, spicy, deeply rich curries to pour over fresh rice noodles.
If you plan to eat in, come early. The shop sells out fast and gets packed at lunchtime. Its special is green curry with clown featherback fish balls, served only on Wednesdays.
The curries here are seriously good and full of flavor. We ordered the green curry with fish balls: rich, spicy and loaded with curry paste. If you love spicy food, this is for you, and if it is still not hot enough there are dried chilies on the table to add more. If you do not handle spice well, we suggest ordering a jammy soft-boiled egg to cool things down.
Green curry with clown featherback fish balls
Besides the richness of the curry paste, this green curry comes with big, meaty fish balls. Do not miss the young coconut shoots in the curry. Many people mistake them for bamboo shoots, but they are actually coconut shoots, and their gentle sweetness balances the heat. Eat it with a soft-boiled egg and the flavors come together beautifully.
Khanom Jeen Baan Phu Karn offers plenty of choice, from curries and chili sauces to other toppings, plus other dishes too.
There is also a long list of drinks: tea, coffee, soft drinks and fruit smoothies such as watermelon, banana and lime, as well as cooling classics like fresh lime juice, chrysanthemum tea and longan juice. Alcoholic drinks are available too.
The shop is easy to reach by public transport or taxi. If you drive, note that there is no parking at the shop; you can look for a spot near the temple opposite Soi Kraisi. If you would rather stay home, order delivery through Grab or LINE MAN.
The interior has a slightly retro feel that reminds you of a shop upcountry. It is warm and friendly, and together with the curries it really feels like eating a home-style meal in the provinces.
