Most Disliked
Some guests express a desire for more drink options beyond just soft drinks, suggesting that the addition of Thai iced tea or even traditional alcoholic beverages might enhance the dining experience. Its small size can also be a drawback during peak hours, as seating is limited, leading to a bustling atmosphere that may not suit everyone’s taste. Additionally, a few diners find certain dishes, such as the pad Thai, on the sweeter side, calling for the need to personalize flavors. A few more vegetarian options would also be welcome according to some health-conscious diners who crave variety.

Called for lunch Friday where we received a friendly welcome. The minced chicken pad kra pow and the sizzling sweet and sour chicken, both with rice, were freshly & perfectly cooked. Both good quality and plentiful, good value for money. It is a takeaway and also there is a long window table with several bar stools in order to sit and eat in as we did. Also a selection of ice cold soft drinks from the fridge.

This is our first time to visit, it’s a very small place with open kitchen. A boss lady is running this place and only few seats available. No wonder many take away orders during my stay there. We ordered pad Thai, train station fried rice and chicken satay. I like the chicken satay with the peanut sauce. This is freshly fried immediately after ordered. This rice taste good. The pad Thai is quite sweet for me, so I put some soy sauce to balance it off but I didn’t realise there is peanut and vinegar seasonings in the small bowls. The portion is really big so we need to take away, it’s really value for money🥰 It will be great if there is drinks other than soft drinks ☺️
