Thailand is, without a doubt, one of the most popular travel destinations among Singaporeans.
While leisure travel was still possible pre-Covid, many of us loved flying over for a weekend trip to feast on its affordable yet oh-so-delicious hawker fares.
If you’ve missed your gourmet trips to the Land of Smiles, this stall in Yishun might just satisfy your wanderlust and cravings for tasty Thai food.
BKK Bistro & Bar located in Yishun serves boat noodles till 3am every night, perfect for late-night supper with your squad.
The eatery also has an alfresco dining area next to a pond that will give you similar vibes to dining at one of Thailand’s many floating markets.
BKK Bistro & Bar’s boat noodles are about as cheap as it gets, at just $0.80 per bowl.
Customers can either opt for glass and rice noodle, and between tom yum and herbal soup.
There are also 6 toppings to choose from:
They come in pretty small portions – how they’re served typically – so you’ll likely have to order a few bowls if you have a big appetite.
Otherwise, you can have a go at their medium-sized boat noodles ($7.80), or their super-sized variant ($20.80) instead, the latter appears to be ideal for sharing.
Besides boat noodles, BKK Bistro & Bar also serve other forms of Thai cuisine like basil pork and beef, as well as green curry.
But what caught our eye was their Tom Yum Seafood Hotpot ($25.80++), which seems like the perfect dish for the chilly weather of late.
It comes with a large selection of seafood, including lobster, prawn, squid, and mussels.
Wash it all down with a refreshing cup of Thai milk tea, or a bottle of carbonated ‘chrysanthemum tea’.
You can have a preview of their menu here.
BKK Bistro & Bar is about a 600m walk away from Khatib MRT station.
