For some odd reason, there have been a few shops offering boat noodle have popped up throughout Hong Kong. What is boat noodle? And is it served in a boat? Originally they were served on boats but not anymore! It is a Thai rice noodle dish that is strong in flavor by using items such as cow or pork blood mixed with spices. It is topped with a lot of items for one filling FILLING meal. But they are often served in small bowls where people can order several of them.666 Boat Noodles is a place in
666 Boat Noodles is a place in the Western District that serves this. Boyfriend was always curious to try so we came here one evening. The restaurant is small and cramped. I assume to mimic eating on a street corner in Thailand?
Menu is in English and Chinese. There is no 10% service charge. They serve various types of boat noodle. For those not interested, they also serve curry rice and Hainan chicken rice.
We ordered two Thai milk tea ($20). This came in a bottle. It also wasn't very good. It was not sweet at all and the tea was also on the bitter side.
Boyfriend ordered the coconut curry potato with rice ($38 for a large portion). For $8, you can add a Thai pancake (which tasted and looked like a roti). The curry was fairly rich with a strong taste of coconut. It was a tiny bit spicy. Apparently, large portion just means more rice. You don't get an increase in curry portion. I suggest saving your money. Order the regular portion and just add on the Thai pancake.
I had the pork Thai noodles ($42 for large size). It had a number of items such as pork ball, strips of pork meat, pork cracklings, tofu puffs. The toppings were fine. The noodles used were the thin kind. The only thing wrong was the soup. It wasn't very strong and it still had the that raw taste of blood. Neither of us was a big fan of it.
For a place that calls itself Boat Noodle, the boat noodle wasn't very good. However, the curry was much better. That was a bit surprising. Don't think I'd be back.
