Sep 11, 2026"Got recommendation by local, i came for lunch and came about 1.30pm, only several guests inside, no local here. Ordered regular pad thai (45 baht). The service was fast, my order came with lime and other vegetable. You can add chili flakes or sugar, and they served teapot full of water, but i dont know where was the glass. The padthai was okay, lil bit sweet, you can taste the nut inside, had scrambled egg, and made my stomach full. My desk came from sewing machine, this restaurant had many tables for dine in, nit stuffy even no air conditioning."
