Coffee Beans By Dao (Ekamai 12)

Coffee Beans By Dao evolved from a casual Ekamai 12 home operation into a neighborhood mainstay over two decades. The owner trained at Le Cordon Bleu, bringing European technique to Thai ingredients and sensibilities. The elegant, retro-styled space offers private basement parking and direct entry, creating an unpretentious dining experience.

Desserts remain the kitchen's signature strength—brownie cheesecake balances richness without excess, while the strawberry Babybloom achieves delicate balance between fruit and cream. The savory menu proves more variable; pastas can lean toward richness that might not suit all palates, but consistent service and a convivial atmosphere encourage return visits.
