Tucked just off Broadway near UWA, this counter-order Thai diner delivers uncompromised heat and street-cart punch across quick workday lunches and informal BYO nights. Loyal regulars head straight for the wok-tossed Pad Krapow—rich with holy basil and minced beef over rice—alongside fragrant Tom Yum packed with fresh herbs. The dining room runs on roughly ten tables, backed by a self-serve chilli station to adjust your own fire level before washing it down with cold Thai milk tea.
- Unapologetic spice and wok classics: Uncompromising street-cart heat anchors staples like beef Pad Krapow, herb-packed Tom Yum, and wok-fired Pad Thai.
- Casual BYO dining: An easygoing policy lets diners bring their own beer and wine to an intimate room of around ten tables.
- Quick counter service: Fast counter ordering suits quick campus lunch breaks, complete with a self-serve bar for extra dry toppings and chilli sauces.
