WHEN I FIRST CAME TO THAILAND I MET THE OWNER OF THIS BAKERY/COFFEE SHOP. MY FRIEND DECHA, THE OWNER, SPOKE SOME ENGLISH AND WE COULD HAVE A NICE CONVERSATION. HE EVEN MADE MY WEDDING CAKE WHEN I GOT MARRIED. THERE'S NOT A LOT OF ROOM INSIDE TO SET DOWN BUT DECHA WILL GREET YOU WITH A WARM SMILE AND MAKE YOU A GOOD CUP OF COFFEE.
MYSELF, I LIKE A MOCHA FRAPPY OR A THAI TEA FRAPPY. IF YOU'RE IN THIS AREA OF KORAT MAKE SURE YOU DROP IN. I SPEAK MORE SPANISH THAN I DO THAI SO I'VE BEEN TEACHING DECHA SOME SPANISH. WHEN I SHOW UP HE ALWAYS GREETS ME WITH A WARM " HOLA " . SO WHEN YOU WALK IN THE DOOR, PUT YOUR HANDS TOGETHER LIKE ALL THAIS DO AND GIVE HIM A FRIENDLY " HOLA " , HE WILL KNOW I SENT YOU.
I WAS JUST THERE YESTERDAY. IF YOU ARE VISITING KORAT AND WOULD LIKE A GREAT CUP OF COFFEE OR SOME CAKE THIS IS THE PLACE TO GO. IF YOU'RE AT THE YA MOE ( THAT'S HOW I SPELL IT)PLAZA TAKE THE NUMBER 11 OR 14 SONGTHAEW IN FRONT OF THE MARKET PLACE. WHEN YOU GO OVER THE RAILROAD TRACKS AND GO ABOUT 500 OR SO METERS LOOK FOR IT ON THE RIGHT SIDE. JUST AFTER THE GAS STATION ON THE LEFT SIDE. YOU WON'T REGRET THE TRIP. REMEMBER TO SAY "HOLA ". HE WILL KNOW WHO SENT YOU. LOL
