It’s not very often that I call a restaurant the best, especially best Bangkok street food, because one could never taste it all to confirm that. However, I’m going off on a little edge this time to say that Neua Toon Tha Nam Sathu Pradit (ร้านเนื้อตุ๋นท่าน้ำสาธุประดิษฐ์) serves what is possibly the best braised beef in Bangkok.
It’s not exactly a full on street food cart restaurant, but it’s a pretty street food environment, occupying a number of shophouses and all the cooking goes down at the corner of the building. Neua Toon Tha Nam Sathu Pradit (ร้านเนื้อตุ๋นท่าน้ำสาธุประดิษฐ์) is located almost to the pier on Rama 3 road, which is a bit of an industrial area in Bangkok, and across the street from a big Coca Cola plant. But you come here for the tenderly braised Thai Chinese style beef, and it won’t let you down.
On the menu at Neua Toon Tha Nam Sathu Pradit (ร้านเนื้อตุ๋นท่าน้ำสาธุประดิษฐ์) you can order a number of different things, like braised beef or fresh beef, and you can choose to eat a bowl of noodles with beef on top, or a bowl of soup braised beef to eat with rice. We decided to try it all. If you get the braised soup with rice, they have many different sizes of fire pots, and they have an education theme. We got all “bachelor’s degree” beef pots.
Thai street food style braised beef in Bangkok has been a favorite of mine for many years, so I was extremely excited when our first pot of beef came out. We ordered braised beef with everything (ปริญญาทุกอย่าง), which came with some organs, meatballs, and braised beef. All the beef parts were amazing, especially the braised beef.
Next we ordered braised beef and extra blood (ปริญญาทุกอย่าง น้ำตก), which was actually even richer and thicker than the first. This is Bangkok street food tender beef on the next level. Finally, we just couldn’t stop, so we ordered one more pot full of only braised beef (ปริญญาเนื้อตุ๋น น้ำตก), to finish off this epic Thai street food beef meal in Bangkok.
