Teow Tem Toh

Teow Tem Toh brings authentic Thai street food to Kensington Market, taking over a storefront on Augusta Avenue that previously housed Belgian Sweet Corner. Centered around a family recipe that originated in a small noodle shop in Thailand back in 2011, the restaurant focuses on traditional Ayutthaya boat noodle broths passed down through generations. The owners channel classic open-air market stalls, adding a spicy, savory addition to a neighbourhood otherwise heavily populated by Latin American eateries.

First-time visitors should expect a casual, unpretentious atmosphere where the main attraction is the signature boat noodles, served in compact bowls designed to maintain an optimal broth-to-noodle ratio. Diners can order incrementally as they go, often stacking empty bowls to track their meal. Beyond the boat noodles, the menu features familiar Thai street food staples including pad Thai, pad see ew, and pad kapao. Expect a bustling, energetic environment typical of the market, making it an ideal stop for a quick, interactive meal of regional noodles.
