About 55 Pochana

Right at the foot of the Thong Lo BTS stairs, 55 Pochana catches the late crowd when the rest of Sukhumvit goes dark. Woks fire until 4 AM—loud, fast, and unvarnished. Night owls treat it as an essential stop after drinking, bypassing noodles entirely—there is no Pad Thai here—for heavy-hitting Thai-Chinese plates. Food arrives at breakneck speed: morning glory with garlic, crab fried rice, and signature *or suan* sizzling on cast-iron hotplates beside cold beers on wobbly metal tables.

  • Wee-Hours Kitchen: The woks keep firing until 3:30 or 4:00 AM, making this roadside shophouse a dependable stop for post-midnight supper right off the BTS skytrain.
  • Sizzling Or Suan: Fresh oysters and egg arrive spitting hot on cast-iron platters, paired with fiery chili sauce and crisp bean sprouts.
  • Stir-Fry & Rice Focus: The kitchen skips street noodles entirely, focusing its heat on wok-charred crab fried rice, savory soups, and garlic-laced greens.

  • Wok-Focused Thai-Chinese Menu

    Skip standard street-cart Pad Thai for an expansive menu of fast, robust Thai-Chinese staples centered around wok stir-fries, flavorful curries, comforting soups, and fried rice.

  • Sizzling Hotplate Oyster Omelette

    The kitchen's undisputed hallmark is Or Suan—a rich, gelatinous oyster omelette arriving piping hot and bubbling directly on cast-iron hotplates.

    The hot plate omelette was amazing and the fish soup was one of a kind with enough spice kick.

Before you head over

Key operational and ordering pointers to ensure a seamless visit—book your spot now to experience Thong Lo's iconic late-night scene.

  • Don't Expect Noodle Dishes

    The kitchen focuses strictly on stir-fries, soups, curries, and fried rice rather than noodle soups or stir-fried noodles. Do not come expecting Pad Thai; plan your meal around signature wok dishes and rice instead.

  • Opt for Indoor Seating to Avoid Roadside Odors

    The restaurant offers both air-conditioned indoor dining and roadside tables. Opt for an indoor table if you are sensitive to heat, traffic noise, or roadside drain odors along Sukhumvit Road.

  • Take the BTS or Arrive Late for Parking

    Located directly along Sukhumvit Road right by BTS Thong Lo station, the restaurant is easiest to reach by skytrain. If driving, curb parking along the main road is restricted and typically requires waiting until late into the night.
