If you want to enjoy a real delicious patonggo, please go somewhere else! This cafe's patonggo only has crispiness feel - once you chew on it, it all crumble down in your mouth, nothing for you to chew after that - you won't feel any tender moist, a bit tender crumb which are qualities of traditional patonggo.

By the way, They only serve iced coffee even though it's morning time (8:30 am). My friends ordered coffee but got three iced coffee instead. So, I then ordered a cup of coffee without ice. This time I got cold coffee with no ice. To cut the long story short, they don't serve hot coffee in the morning!

We were very disappointed and swore that we will never come back!

I REALLY DO NOT KNOW HOW THIS CAFE GOT A MICHELIN STAR! CAN...

Scrumptious food at incredibly affordable rates! Conveniently located right across my hotel, Suraya, near Khao San Road. The café opens early in the morning, making it perfect for breakfast.

We tried a variety of dishes, and the wonton soup stood out as my favorite—a refreshing, warm, and absolutely delicious bowl of goodness. The pork with rice was simple yet satisfying.

The real star of the menu, however, was the Pattongo. We tried two variants: the classic served with pandan syrup and coconut shavings, which was fantastic, and another with Thai coffee ice cream. The ice cream paired perfectly with the Pattongo, offering a creamy, delightful flavor.

Overall, it was an amazing dining experience. Highly...
