The lunch queue moves at clip pace, with regulars angling for the chicken massaman or a rich beef curry packed with tender tendons. For an extra kick, grab the steamed fish curry parcel wrapped in banana leaf. Balance the plate with a boiled egg fried crisp on the exterior.

  • Curry Standouts: Noted picks include deeply spiced chicken massaman, tender beef curry, and steamed banana leaf fish curry.
  • Helpful Counter Service: The welcoming owner readily helps first-time visitors navigate the crowded counter of dishes.
