Egg Noodle with Braised Abalone Fish Ball Soup by Lim Lao Ngow, Bangkok, Thailand (Michelin Bib Gourmand) In 1937, a Chinese chef named Mr. Ngow immigrated to Thailand . He opened a small noodle shop, which he named Lim Lao Ngow, on Song Wat Road near Bangkok's Chinatown , and the rest, as they say, is history. For more than 80 years this legendary noodle shop has been serving some of Thailand's best and most beloved fish ball noodle soup. The noodle shop was recognized with the Bib Gourmand Award in the 2018 Thailand Michelin Guide, and for good reason! The dishes served at Lim Lao Ngow use high-quality ingredients (each fish ball is made using 100% ocean fish and no fillers like flour as you might find in cheaper shops), yet the price is reasonable with the most expensive dish costing less than 300 baht.
