"Thai Town is a vibe. When exploring the abundance of Thai restaurants on Hollywood Boulevard from Normandie to Western Avenues, you'll undoubtedly stumble across Sapp Coffee Shop, one of East Hollywood's oldest dining destinations that opened in the 1970s. Though ownership has changed hands in recent years, the dishes remain as vibrant and bold as ever, especially its signature boat noodles and jade noodles."
"Don't be intimidated by the massive, nearly 100-item menu. The staff are always helpful - just let them know your preferred proteins and spice level to secure something delicious. Boat noodles, Thailand's beloved dish historically served in boats along Thailand's Chao Phraya River, offer tendon, sliced beef, tripe, liver, beef balls, and pork rinds submerged in a spicy and slightly sweet beef broth."
