Somsak Pu Ob, Bangkok — Michelin-Featured Crab & Glass Noodle Delight

If you’re in Bangkok and craving seafood, Somsak Pu Ob is a must-visit. Featured in the Michelin Guide, this humble eatery is famous for its roasted crab with glass noodles, a dish that has earned it a loyal following among locals and visitors alike.

The menu is simple yet perfected over time, focusing on just a few fresh ingredients: crab, prawn, and cockles. We ordered:
• Roasted Prawn with Glass Noodles — juicy prawns infused with smoky wok flavors, paired with springy noodles
• Roasted Crab with Glass Noodles — their signature dish, rich with natural crab sweetness and umami
• Boiled Cockles — fresh, plump, and served with a zesty dipping sauce that elevates every bite

It’s not fancy, but it’s authentic — and that’s what makes Somsak Pu Ob one of Bangkok’s most iconic seafood stops.
