Chaplu is a small, family-run Thai restaurant at 41/2 Soi Phutthamonthon Sai 2 Soi 21 in Sala Thammasop, Thawi Watthana, about a kilometre in from the main road. Reviewers call it a hidden gem for home-style cooking: glass noodle salad, curry with freshwater snails, crispy fried fish salad, Isan dishes and made-to-order rice plates, with single-portion plates that suit solo diners. The friendly owners come up again and again in reviews, and the small dining room is decorated with care. Everything is cooked to order, so expect a wait at busy times. It opens daily until 20:00, from 08:30 or 10:00 depending on the listing. Prices are moderate, parking is on the street in front, and there is no rail station nearby.
