Poonchai

The Spis take

A small, long-standing Thai kitchen at the top of Istedgade near the station, known for cooking that's authentic rather than dialled down for Western palates — proper heat and aroma in dishes like the red curry. The room is cramped and it's more functional than atmospheric, and a few diners find prices a touch high, but for genuine, well-made Thai in a convenient spot it earns its steady, high ratings.
