Start with the Duck Roti ($10) – a crispy, savory flatbread stuffed with duck, green onions, and cucumbers, served with a tangy duck sauce that sets the tone for the meal. If you’re in the mood for dumplings, don’t miss the Spicy Shrimp Dumplings ($10), perfectly steamed with shrimp, chicken, mushrooms, and a hint of chili oil that gives just the right kick. For a lighter bite, the Fried Crispy Tofu ($7) comes with a delicious peanut dipping sauce that’s sure to satisfy.
For something more substantial, the Dumpling Soup ($8 for a cup, $15 for a bowl) is a comforting dish featuring tender pork dumplings, peas, carrots, and a soothing chicken broth that feels like a warm hug in a bowl. And if you’re after noodles, the Khao Soi ($16) is a must-try. This Northern Thai favorite features egg noodles in a rich curry broth, topped with crispy noodles, pickled cabbage, and your choice of chicken, beef, or tofu. Add in some roasted chilies for an extra punch.
When it comes to entrees, the Crispy Duck Curry ($19) is an absolute showstopper. The duck is perfectly crispy, paired with a zesty red curry sauce, pineapples, tomatoes, and fresh basil that all come together in a sweet and savory dance of flavors. The Kra Paw Kai Khai Daow ($15) is another highlight: a fragrant stir-fry of minced chicken, bell peppers, and basil served over jasmine rice with a fried egg on top – it’s comfort food at its finest.
What really steals the show at Khao Horm Thai is the Crispy Duck Noodle Soup, a generous bowl of egg noodles topped with crispy duck slices, all swimming in a flavorful, deeply aromatic broth. It’s a noodle soup experience like no other – rich, complex, and absolutely satisfying.
