Kiin Kiin Tok Tok

Henrik Ydeis a man who knows a lot about Thai cuisine, and he is the one behind Copenhagen's most comprehensive presentation of regional dishes from all over Thailand. The guest is free to stop by for a quick, hearty soup or to take the whole family‑style round trip for 335 kr. In any case, there is helpful service. If you take the round trip, you will pass through the Isaan region, which lies in northeastern Thailand, where a particularly spicy pork sausage is served. The accompaniment of sliced fresh ginger and shredded cabbage lacks a dressing, otherwise it would be too dry for the meaty sausages. The tour also goes through Yasothon province, located in Isaan near Laos, where a very Laotian‑inspired laab ped khao niaw is served. A bite of this dish sends us straight back to Laos. It consists of spicy coarsely chopped duck meat with lots of mint, cabbage and cucumber, and in the classic small woven basket there is sticky rice. Fantastic dish. Then you can choose whether to stay in Isaan or go to Bangkok, where somtam kaiyang—a chili‑marinated grilled half chicken with wonderful papaya salad—is served, seasoned sweet‑sour. Since Tok Toks kitchen does not abuse chili, you can certainly stay in the province. Of course there is also pad pak boong—this ever‑present water spinach, which is almost the staple food of western Asia—stir‑fried with garlic and chili and referencing Yaowarat (Bangkok’s Chinatown). From the southern province of Chumpon there is green curry (which is especially prominent in the south, while the red dominates in the north) with fish balls and fresh Thai basil. A classic in many a Thai repertoire and faithful to the good unfolding of flavor strength and perfume. The drink offering is understandable but diverse. Cocktails, mocktails, lemonades, ciders, beer and well‑functioning wines for stronger food at very reasonable prices, e.g., 375 kr for a Pinot Noir from Kings Ridge in Willamette Valley, Oregon, 2016. The round trip is completed with a pandan dessert with red beans and a solid reputation as an excellent place in very good class.
