Pad See Ew — wide rice noodles stir fried with egg, broccoli and carrots

About Pad See Ew

Pad See Ew is the savoury counterpart to Pad Thai. Wide, flat rice noodles are charred quickly in a very hot wok with soy, egg and greens, so the noodles pick up a faint smokiness — the quality Thai cooks call wok hei. There is no tamarind and no peanut, so nothing tastes sour or sweet-sharp.

Because the noodles are wide and soft, Pad See Ew is often the dish people order when they want something comforting rather than bright. It is a good first Thai noodle dish for children and for anyone who does not want heat.

Questions people ask

What is Pad See Ew?
Wide rice noodles stir fried with egg, broccoli, carrots and our signature sauce. It is savoury and mild rather than sour or sweet, and it is cooked over very high heat so the noodles pick up a little char.
Pad See Ew vs Drunken Noodles — what is the difference?
Both use flat noodles, but they taste nothing alike. Pad See Ew is savoury and mild, with broccoli and carrots. Our Pad Drunken Noodles are made with bell pepper, sweet basil leaf, tomato and onion and are prepared spicy. Choose Pad See Ew if you do not want heat.
Is Pad See Ew spicy?
No. Pad See Ew is one of the mildest noodle dishes on our menu. If you would like heat added, tell us when you order.
Is Pad See Ew gluten free?
The noodles are rice noodles, but the sauce and the shared wok are the issue — our menu does not mark Pad See Ew as gluten free. Please call (503) 659-0149 and tell us about your allergy before ordering.
