Plan your visitAbout Hia Tai Kee Visukrasat
Step into 1952 at Hia Tai Kee Visukrasat, an open-air corner shophouse where old Bangkok still starts its mornings over marble tables. Local elders gather daily for their unhurried sapha kafae ritual, sipping hot tea while traffic hums outside. The house specialty is the kai krata—a personal skillet of fried eggs loaded with Chinese sausage and minced pork. Pair it with thick, butter-and-sugar toast grilled golden, or order soft-boiled eggs served directly in a cup. A glass of dark, sweet Thai iced coffee arrives at your table beside a complimentary pot of hot Chinese tea.
- Signature Kai Krata: Skillet-fried eggs loaded with savory toppings pair with traditional butter-sugar toast and soft-boiled eggs in a cup.
- Vintage Corner Shophouse: Operating since 1952, the open-air shophouse features marble tables, vintage bottles, and a morning gathering of regulars.
- Traditional Thai Coffee: Strong, sweetened Thai iced coffee served alongside complimentary pots of hot tea at every table.
