Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of food is served, and what should I order?

The menu centers on Thai and Southeast Asian breakfast and lunch dishes rather than traditional cafe staples. Frequent customer favorites include the pulled pork fried rice (often served with Prik Nam Pla and a wok-fried egg), loaded roti tacos, and house specials like Thai omelettes and Laos sausage.

How busy does it get, and what is the seating like?

The cafe can get very busy, especially on weekends when you may need to join a waitlist and wait half an hour or more for a table. Seating is cozy and often involves sharing bench space, though table turnover is generally swift.

Are vegetarian and gluten-free options available?

Yes, the menu includes dedicated vegetarian choices—such as vegetarian fried rice, tofu stir fry, and mushroom Thai omelettes—along with gluten-free options.
