Ready-to-eat Thai food at 7-Eleven
7-Eleven is known for its array of international cuisine options such as the Korean instant tteokbokki and the hua tiau chicken cup noodles from Taiwan. Now, they have a new selection of Thai food options including a Thai Glass Noodle Salad ($2.90), Thai Red Curry Chicken ($4.50) and more!Â
If you crown rice as your daily staple, the classic Thai Basil Chicken with Rice ($3.90) or Thai Red Curry Chicken with Rice ($4.50) will be your first pick. The basil chicken meal comes with a generous portion of savoury and spicy minced chicken, and is even topped with a sunny side up egg for good measure.
The Thai red curry has chunks of tender chicken thigh pieces that are covered in creamy and flavourful curry. You will also taste hints of lemongrass, garlic, and ginger, bringing you and your taste buds back to BKK.Â
