The story
Tucked within the Wat Tha Thong temple fair near Ekkamai BTS, this humble stall earns its reputation on a single stunning dish: blanched blood cockles. For just 125 baht, you get a half-kilo portion that reviewer BANKII describes as “still alive, sweet meat”—satisfyingly crunchy and briny. The compact menu also offers กุ้งอบวุ้นเส้น (glass noodle-baked shrimp), but the spotlight stays on these startlingly fresh bivalves.
It’s a no-frills temple-fair setting, yet the seafood here rivals dedicated Bangkok restaurants. For anyone navigating the city’s street food on a BTS budget, this stall delivers an unbeatable combination of freshness, flavor, and value. No pretense, just exceptionally good cockles that speak for themselves.

The steamed blood clams are the star, praised for their plump, briny sweetness. The overall vibe is a nostalgic, carnival-style feast that’s both simple and deeply satisfying.
“I got half a kilo of blanched blood cockles at the temple fair at Wat Tha Thong near Ekkamai BTS — 125 baht. The cockles are huge, the meat is firm and very juicy. Look at this — full shell, amazing. Dipping in the sauce — the meat is incredibly crunchy and sweet. The cockles are so fresh they're still moving — not just fresh, they're still alive. The meat is sweet and crunchy, amazing. Half a kilo for 125 baht is not expensive at all.”

กุ้งอบวุ้นเส้น
I also got the steamed shrimp with glass noodles — 20 baht per set. Today they have shrimp, pork belly, squid, and fish. I chose pork belly, easier to eat. The seasoning is strong — clear ginger aroma, black pepper, very distinct. Worth the price, 20 baht and I'm full. Well done.
