Attente un peu longue, mais bon un vendredi soir ça se comprend. Carte courte & efficace. J'ai pris le boeuf krapow & c'était un régal !! J'ai goûté aussi le poulet & c'était à tomber ar terre.
Les plats sont copieux, définitivement je vais y retourner !
Honestly enough can't be said about @krapow.ca located in the heart of Montreal. This unassuming spot in one of Montreal hottest neighbourhoods has been serving up delicious Thai food now for 5 delicious years. I'm just so upset at myself it took me this long to come visite!
I have to start off with one of the stars of the show the Laksa. Absolutely show stopper of a soup, can't remember the last time I've had such amazing depth of flavour in a broth. Truly beautiful balance between savory, heat & umami. A elite move if u wanna take this dish to the next level in my opinion is to add the Sambal Belacan Chicken on top. It adds a layer of crunch & texture overall to the dish that to be really adds. You can also add anyone of their 3 in house Sambals to it, all were just amazing. The noodles had amazing bounce to them, the toppings all perfectly curated. Honestly a 10/10 dish, FOODGASMIC💦 to say the least! & I like to add, everything they have is gluten free!
Next we have the Beef Rendang, origins now focusing on Indonesia & boy this dish really transported me there! It's was so flavour packed full of Spices & herbs, slowly cooked for hours & hours that the meat just feel apart in yoyr mouth. Honestly I can't believe I've only ever had this dish 3 times in my life & this time had to have been my favorite tbh. This rich, sweet & savoury Stew is just what I needed.
Last but not least we have the famous beef Krapow for what they are famous for. Honestly I've only ever had this dish made with pork so I was wondering what the difference flavour notes & textures might be. Truthfully, really pleasantly surprised. Not to much heat which was a little odd because normally every time I've had this dish it really just burns your face off. But I guess they have to keep it a little calmer for the whities LOL. But again really well balanced dish especially with the fried egg on top it really lends a richness to the entire meal you break it up & eat it all together really well done. My only thing if I were to give anything to improve or add to this dish definitely a little bit of heat, & cripier beef, but still 11/10!
See the food? ABSOLUTELY BODIED IT. My wife loved the hell out of the faux meat krapow & I couldn't agree more. I got the beef rendang while her mom got the papaya salad. & YUMMERS. Also, the lady working here is super helpful too. She even went & helped us with parking in the area since we're not local. Amazing place will definitely come again for out next visit.
This is such a cute little spot tucked away off the main street. While a limited menu, what they do, they do very well. Great little spot for lunch if you are in the area.
J'y ai passer manger avec des ami(e)s aujourd'hui pis la fraicheur est extraordinaire, ce repas etait tellement trop bon & frais que j'en ai vider completement mon assiette tellement que c'etait trop delicieux. Tres bien recu & vous avez gagner un client car je reviendrais avec tres grand plaisir 👍👍

Unfortunately will not be ordering again since they switch the beyond option with the gusta faux beef. Lost it's juiciness & addictive taste that made us come back over & over. Now it is a lot more drier, still tasty but a lot less.
Idk what the bad reviews were for, the food is amazing! 🥲 As a South East Asian, this is easily one of the best versions of Krapow & Beef Rendang I've ever had. Everything was so spot on. If you're not used to spice or bold flavours, this is probably not for you. Also loved that the presentation was translated in the takeout box. There was a bit of a wait today, but well worth it in my opinion. I couldn't stop eating, it reminded me of
home.
