Pair Wine with Pad See Ew

Pad See Ew is Thailand’s beloved wok-fried noodle dish—wide rice noodles stir-fried with soy sauce, garlic, Chinese broccoli, and egg, often with chicken or pork. It’s bold, dark, and smoky, thanks to high-heat caramelization of the sauce.

Pairing wine with Pad See Ew is about matching its savory-sweet depth without dulling the wok-fired edge.

🍷 Best Wine Pairings

Chardonnay (Unoaked)
A fresh, unoaked Chardonnay adds brightness and balance, especially with pork or chicken. It complements the soy base without clashing.

Rosé
Dry rosé brings crispness and gentle red fruit that cuts through the dish’s sweetness and oil. A great match for mixed protein or vegetarian versions.

Sauvignon Blanc
For versions with extra garlic or added chili vinegar, Sauvignon Blanc provides a clean, herbal edge that refreshes and resets the palate.

🧠 Why It Works

Pad See Ew is dark, rich, and softly sweet. Wines must be crisp, clean, and unoaked to refresh the palate. Tannins and oak will clash. Acidity is your best friend.

This is a casual dish—but a serious opportunity for great pairing.
