  • This place is a pleasant surprise! I've been reading a lot about Block 9, but I've been a bit hesitant to visit as most places are sadly not as authentic as they purport to be. And after walking in, and first tasting their pad see iew, I thought that it was just another mediocre Thai restaurant. Though they were generous with the fish sauce in the basic dish, where was the heat? Where was the sugar? However, we were pleasantly surprised to find that all of that was available to add to the dish - and once we did we were transported to the streets of Bangkok. This restaurant is the real deal. They serve a simple menu of many of the typical street food in Bangkok. Though at first service, the heat you find in the food in Bangkok is missing, they make it easy to add the heat with authentic Thai chili powder/flakes (make sure you ask for it). Add a little chili and a little sugar and you've got the real deal. The owner is a wonderful woman who's been in LV fo many years but originally hails from Bangkok. She frequently flies home to update her own personal repertoire of recipes so that it reflects the current street food trends of Bangkok. We also ordered Moo Yang (grilled pork skewers) and this too was typical of Bangkok street food (once you add the heat). The sauce was vinegary, sweet and just a bit spicy. Again, add more heat for that authentic touch. Lastly, we got the green curry on the owner's advice. We were not disappointed. While it did not contain the scrumptious little round Thai eggplant, it had bamboo shoots, generous amount of basil and a green curry base that is fresh and tasty. To temper the heat of the food, order the Thai ice tea - this too is the real deal. I'm not a fan of egg rolls (though we ordered it) so I can't say anything positive or negative about it. On the whole, this is a great place to come for authentic Thai street eats. If you have a chance, (and the space in your belly) get the fried mussels as well. Oh! And the place is SUPER CLEAN! I'd come again in a heartbeat.
