Khanom Wan Talat Phlu Chao Kao, also known as Mae Jeng, is a long-established Thai dessert shop in a roadside shophouse at 1119 Thoet Thai Road in Talat Phlu, on the Thonburi side, next to a beef noodle shop. It sells dozens of traditional sweets made fresh each day: layered khanom chan, coconut-topped tako with taro or sago, golden egg-yolk sweets such as thong yot and foi thong, Thai custard cake, pumpkin custard and sticky rice with shrimp or custard toppings, most for around 10 baht a piece. There is no seating, so buy a bag to take away, and come early for the widest choice. A similarly named dessert shop sits a few steps away on Soi Thoet Thai 25. It opens daily from 09:30 to 20:00, about 15 minutes on foot from BTS Talat Phlu.
Rating from public reviews
Each part combines public reviews from several sites (182 reviews). Not our own visit.
Visitors love the huge spread of fresh, very cheap traditional sweets, especially the layered khanom chan and the creamy coconut-topped tako.
It is a takeaway counter with no seating and hard parking on a busy road, and by evening many trays are already sold out.
