This Thai restaurant, awarded with a Michelin star, is simply the best I've experienced. Every dish is a delicious surprise that gets your taste buds excited.
The crispy pork is fantastic. It's perfectly cooked with a crunchy outside and tender, juicy meat on the inside. It's the kind of dish you'll want to come back for again and again.

If it loses its Michelin rating in the future, it would be hard for this...

This is not a fine-dining establishment, but the homely ambience of the place has its own charm. The friendliness and warmth of the service more than compensates for the simplicity in the ambience.
The food is trully exceptional, and I trully believe Aunt Aoy deserves another Michelin.
The "chef recommended omelette" for example, is one of the many must-haves...... The crispy, fragrant egg is literally drowned in crab meat, fried lard etc..... It literally explodes in your mouth.....
