Cheap buffet - Edit
Was already quite busy when we went for breakfast at 8:30am. Not exactly sure how the pricing works for the buffet, they dished us up rice and then we pointed out 2 dishes each. Would’ve gone a 3rd dish but they didn’t seem keen to do that and there was a language barrier. We were charged 45 baht a plate anyways, so very cheap. Though others seem to have gotten 3 dishes with rice for 50 baht, so who knows?
Read moreWe had larb, a tofu veggie stir fry, yellow curry with potatoes, and crispy sweet & sour chick’n. All decent but the sweet & sour was definitely my favourite, could’ve eaten a whole plate of just that. We were still a little hungry so got some spring rolls to take away (15 baht for 3) which weren’t nice, the pastry tasted stale and the filling was all glass noodles with little to no veg.

Pros: quick & cheap meal, authentic local place, not the tastiest food but fine for the price
Cons: stale spring rolls, unclear pricing system for buffet

Delicious & authentic veg restaurant - Edit
The taste to cost ratio of this place is amazing.
Read moreDishes cost 50 to 80 THB, and everything we had was simply awesome. (The Panang Curry was soon good)
We were too late to grab meals from the buffet, but the cook to order menu is extensive and affordable.
It's a whole in the wall type of place, which is often the best spot to eat incredibly well at a low cost. Full of local patrons.
Authentic local dishes with veggies, tofu, or mock meat.
Highly recommended if you're in the area. We'll be back to try out more stuff shortly!
👩🍳 👌
PS: Be careful, this place closes shop at 2pm.
Pros: Tasty authentic dishes, Very affordable, cheap even, Buffet and cook to order extensive menu
Cons: Fan only so it can get hot, Closes at 2 pm (google said 3 bit it was 2)

One hit one miss - Edit
Went for lunch. Agree - come here early
Read moreWhen I went around 1 nearly everything was already sold out.
You can order at the window and just point
Rice plus 3 dishes was 65 for (no idea if that’s good or tourist price tbh)
The curry was not much left. The stir fry tofu greens wasn’t good. Chicken drumstick was insanely good. Depends what you get I think. Ordering from menu possible. Then they’ll cook freshly and it’s between 50-70thb
Pros: Many options , Friendly
Cons: Come early or sold out , No English , Depends on the dish

Maybe next time - Edit
I wanted to like this very basic, local restaurant but perhaps visiting at the tail end of lunch hour and while still on jetlag and traumatised by airport food, didn't help. Not much of an explanation about the dishes. The braised tofu sauce scaled more towards the bland and gloopy. Thai basil tofu scramble with toasted rice was too gritty for my liking and lacked brightness. I believe they also sell soup upon request and will definitely return for that
Read morePros: Small & local , Fairly priced
Cons: Could be more enthusiastic , My choices lacked character

The food is good, but I don’t like to be overcharged - Edit
Been there a few times as it was close to my hotel. Food was good, but they overcharged me every time which made it quite pricy for what you get. I don’t like that behavior and wouldn’t recommend this place.

Average, wouldn't go back - Edit
Buffet style canteen with a few simple vegetarian dishes served over rice. We paid 50 baht each for a generous portion of rice and three sides. The food was underwhelming, with one particular dish being unidentifiable and hard to stomach. However, the food might have been better fresh out of the kitchen earlier in the day as we arrived after lunch hour.

Near The State Tower - Edit
We live IN the state tower so this place is right out of our back door. I'm especially grateful for this place as it has encouraged my children to develop a deep love and respect for Vegan and Vegetarian food. Thai people eat here. It's cheap and delicious. My Thai Issan wife really likes the Larb and it's great to have them eat food that they love knowing that it's good for them.
Read morePros: Cheap, delicious
Cons: They can run out of their most popular dishes., Earlier is better

Cheap but good - Edit
Very impressive food for a cheap buffet-style place. Only 60 baht for rice with 3 curries and a spring roll. Drinks start from 5 baht. They have food to order too. I’m definitely coming again.

Good basic food, good price - Edit
I would give this place 4 cows. Three cows for the good basic food and one cow because the price is so low. I got there about 1 in the afternoon and most of the food was gone already. I just pointed what I wanted and the total came to 45 Baht with no drink. The meal came with rice in the middle and 3 other items. If you are looking for a budget meal this is a good place to go.

super lecker- aber Achtung Öffnungszeiten stimmen nicht - Edit
Früh kommen lohnt sich (12 Uhr) da sonst die Auswahl nicht mehr so groß ist.
Read moreDas Restaurant ist schlicht und wird stark von Thailändern die in der Umgebung arbeiten angesteuert. Man kann aus den Verschiedenen Gerichten wählen - alle sind sehr lecker. Wir waren bereits 2x Nachmittags/abends da jedoch war das Restaurant geschlossen. Öffnungszeiten stimmen fährt nicht ganz.
Pros: sehr günstig, sehr lecker
Cons: Öffnungszeiten stimmen nicht - nur bis mittags off, früh da sein lohnt sich

simple Thai vegan buffet - Edit
I couldn't eat this type of vegan food every day as I'm not sure it's the healthiest but it is indeed very, very tasty and Tien Sin offers a decent version of this typical vegan Thai buffet
Read moreThere wasn't as much choice a So hoped but the 3 dishes I selected were good especially the spicy eggplant curry
I also bought some (cooked) vegan sausages to take away and plan to make sausage sandwiches for my flight tmrw :)
There are a few vegan mock meats you can buy (uncooked) so I stocked up on some shredded meat ...
All in all pretty decent and I would return....
Pros: cheap, tasty and friendly service
Cons: not as many options as other vegan buffets

Good food, big portions - Edit
I had rice & two sides and a sausage for 60 Baht (without sausage it would have been 40). It was nothing fancy, but really tasty. FINALLY a place that serves decent portions, not like most Asian places where you end up being only slightly less hungry than when you arrived. Got variety of non-spicy dishes. Also sell dry goods like salty veggie fish.
Read moreMake sure to come by before lunch as there are few options by then. I usually eat breakfast there and bring a container to grab takeway for lunch later.

Pros: Big portions- hallelujah!, Tasty, Easy to find
Cons: Not many options after 11:30,, Staff speaks little English
