About Ek Teng Phu Ki

Ek Teng Phu Ki delivers a century of Thai-Chinese morning ritual on Thanon Phat Sai—zero espresso pomp, pure breakfast routine. Neighborhood regulars filter in for dark, cloth-strained kafe boran, soft-boiled eggs seasoned with soy and white pepper, and warm toast spread thick with coconut jam. Steamed pork buns and glasses of Ceylon milk tea arrive fast, while diners dodging Chinatown's midday heat head straight up to the quiet, air-conditioned second floor. Service moves briskly, the tab stays tiny, and the kitchen runs on recipes unchanged since 1919.

  • Traditional Breakfast Classics: Cloth-filtered dark coffee, Ceylon milk tea, soft-boiled eggs, and coconut kaya toast anchors the morning menu.
  • Upstairs Air-Conditioned Retreat: A quiet, air-conditioned second floor offers a welcome cooling escape from Chinatown's busy streets.
  • Century-Old Heritage: Serving Chinatown since 1919 with multi-generational recipes, vintage decor, and dim sum steamers.
