Mae Ting's Coconut Cakes
8.3
Weekend-only Thai street stand at the Damnoen Saduak night market known for freshly griddled kanom krok—crisp-edged, custardy coconut cakes served hot. The rest of the menu leans classic market fare like papaya salad and skewers, but locals line up for the cakes and seasonal toppings. Expect a casual, standing-room experience with fast turnover and real Bangkok snack-shop energy.
Must-Try Dishes:
Kanom Krok (Coconut Cakes), Som Tum (Papaya Salad), Moo Ping (Grilled Pork Skewers)
