Nice Thai brunch

Sunday brunch is served at this thai temple with lots of outdoor seating.

I highly recommend attending this restaurant's Sunday brunch, as it is a must-do for anyone in the area. The brunch is organized by the temple to support their monks, and features different lines for various food items. It is best to arrive early to ensure the freshest food options. I usually bring $20 in coins to exchange for cash at the end or use to purchase Thai crafts or spices. The brunch offers a line for both vegetarian/vegan options and meat dishes, all served in generous portions. Don't miss out on the delicious coconut pancakes and mango with sticky rice for dessert.

Please don’t wear revealing cloths. This is a temple after all!

This brunch, in my opinion, is a must-do activity for anyone visiting or living in the area. The temple hosts this brunch every Sunday to support the living costs of their monks. There are lines for various food items, so I recommend arriving early to ensure fresher and more available options. I usually exchange $20 in coins, which is quite a lot, and any extra coins can be exchanged for cash, donated, or used to purchase Thai crafts or other items. They have separate lines for vegetarian/vegan dishes and meat dishes, both of which offer generous portions. The small coconut pancakes and mango with sticky rice make for beautiful desserts.
