This modern Thai street-food cafe is a local favourite. It's the kind of menu where you won't know what to order because you want to try a little of everything. Whatever you choose, food here is superfresh and big on flavour. Plenty of traditional soup and noodle dishes, served in a small space with Thai writing on the walls and cultural artefacts.
