AI summary of what 1 dish mentions say about the food
Som Poo’s crab glass noodles steal the show, earning rapturous praise for their sweet, briny depth. The overall vibe is one of humble, soulful perfection.
“This place is famous for crab glass noodles. The crabs are right there on the stall, alive and fresh. They cook it in a hot pot right on the fire — it's beautiful. There are spring onions, glass noodles, and the crab already broken. The sauce on the bottom is interesting. You have to eat it with your hands, suck the crab. The sauce is super spicy. It's delicious but a bit annoying to eat. This is the best dish of this video. Cost: 340 baht. You absolutely have to come here.”
