115 Townhouse

One of the best eateries in the area for noodle soup lovers, where the bouncy, MSG-free fish balls are made the traditional way from mackerel, yellowtail amberjack and wolf herring. The tom yum soup stands out; and the fish noodles are perfect for low-carb dieters as they go well with any soup.

When the chef-owner’s family runs a wholesale seafood business, you can guarantee that her menu will be based on great fish and shellfish dishes, with enough choices to keep everyone happy – and at prices that keep everyone returning. Don’t miss the steamed sea bass with lime, or the stir-fried squid with salted egg. It’s a huge operation with four dining areas, but it’s run with reassuringly calm efficiency. Even with all this space, arrive early on weekends to avoid a long wait.

Nai Ho serves just one item: chicken rice with clear soup and a punchy dipping sauce. The fermented soy has been fine-tuned for extra depth, lifting the simple dish with bold flavour. Arrive early as they tend to sell out; the chicken liver, a prized extra, disappears even faster.

A passion for wild ingredients like wild boar, frogs, seafood, and even greens, along with a zeal for local flavours—intense, tangy, and spicy—shapes everything on the menu here. The stir-fried wild boar with chilies and the tom yam soup with snakehead fish are both recommended, as is the seafood cooked according to local recipes. The atmosphere is relaxed and homely, with air-conditioned dining rooms and outdoor seating available.
