Boat Noodles at Victory Monument

Lunch today was something that I have been waiting to do since I discovered boat noodles at Sapp in Hollywood, California.  There is an area near Victory Monument that has several boat noodle restaurants next to each other right on the side of a canal.  This is supposed to be the best place in Bangkok to sample this famous Thai noodle dish.  I can't tell you how very happy I was to be there.

We walked around looking at the different shops and ultimately settled on the one that was the most crowded.  My original thought was to sample the noodles at a few different places but that idea was quickly scratched after my first slurp.  The flavors were just incredible!  The broth is so thick and rich.  Sorry Sapp Hollywood, I love you but you have been trumped.  I dig how the noodles are served in little bowls that you stack up.  Prices are a lofty 9 baht per bowl.
