Khao pad (fried rice) is a must-try food item when in Thailand. Sure, you can find it all across Asia, but one restaurant in particular serves this quintessential dish like no other.

Somtum Khun Aoi at Phutthamonthon Sai 5 has a huge XXL crab fried rice that comes with a mountain of fresh crab meat for the ultimate dining experience for foodies in Bangkok.

Lone wolves coming alone with a tummy ready for a feast, get comfy and order their signature Bingsu Poo Pad Kao (฿450). This grand dish comes with a giant serving of fried rice, topped with overflowing crab meat, claws, roe, and even the head, making it look like a delicious mountain of seafood goodness.

If you’re here with your family or friends, opt for the bigger portion at ฿750, which can feed up to 4 people.

Sometimes, fried rice can be too plain or dry, but the one at Khun Aoi’s had no such problems. It even comes with 3 choices of dipping sauces to enhance the flavour of the meal. We’d recommend getting Yum Prik Nam Pla, which complements the rice, along with seafood and wasabi seafood sauce to go with the crab meat.

For the foodies who won’t stop at just one dish, get more items off their menu. Start your meal with Peek Kai Tod Kamin (฿69/4 pcs), crispy chicken wings, and go on to try their other best-selling items like Mhee Pad Kra Ched Goong (฿89), stir-fried vermicelli with water mimosa and shrimp, and Tom Yum Goong (฿285), a spicy tom yum soup with shrimp, mushroom, and Thai herbs.
