Hatyai's ultimate braised pork leg rice

Non-halal Braised pork leg and rice (khao kha moo ข้าวขาหมู) is one of the standard Thai street food dishes. One of the ultimate places to eat Thai Chinese braised pork leg and rice in Hatyai is a discreet small shop a little away from town centre named Kha Moo Head Hom Getting there (2 branches, near to each other): 1) Raj Uthit road branch next to Marina Hotel Opposite is the Thai Hotel. Open 09:30-19:30 daily 2) Raj Uthit road branch (District 8) opposite TOT Open 08:30-15:00 daily There are a number of different things you can order. If you’d just like an individual portion of rice topped with tender braised pork leg and garnishing, you can just order khao kha moo But if you’re ready to take on the ultimate Thai braised pork leg experience, you’ll want to order the entire leg – kha moo It literally just slid off the bone effortlessly, and it was so tender, yet not mushy. The taste wasn’t too sweet, but it was mild with a pleasant aroma of star anise, and I’m sure an arsenal of Chinese herbs and spices that went into the braised juice. Absolutely incredibly good. The contrast of the sweet meat, with the harsh vinegar, chilies, and garlic, complemented each other so well. #foodie #urbanexplorer #staycation
