We went to FireHang with the team and ordered the pork suki and the beef suki. It's a dry suki, stir-fried on high heat, and the pork is cut into big pieces that have been marinated well. The sauce is dark and rich, the vegetables stay crisp, and the egg and noodles pick up the smoky pan flavour. Their dipping sauce is worth asking for a second helping.
What we had and what it cost
- Pork suki and beef suki
- Starting at 60 baht a person (the price on the menu the day we went)
The vibe and service It's a relaxed space with a modern touch: red stools, tiled walls, and a flame-themed sign. Part of the service is self-serve. You tick your order on a paper slip, staff bring it to the table later, and you get your own drinks, spoons, chopsticks and water from the self-service corner. Your food may already be on the table when you come back, so don't be surprised.
Things to keep in mind
- It's partly self-service. Expect to get up for your drinks and cutlery while you wait.
- At lunch time, if you're driving, there may be no parking right in front. Expect to park and walk a bit.
