Nueng Nom Nua (Banthat Thong)
1471 Banthat Thong Rd, Pathum Wan, Bangkok 10330
The range here is deceptive. Nineteen dipping sauces for a menu anchored in bread-on-sticks sounds excessive until you work through Pandan Coconut Custard and Salted Egg Yolk Custard and realize each one is genuinely distinct. The 1AM close matters. Most of Pathum Wan shuts down well before that. For expats who eat late, THB 35 to start is hard to argue with.
Nueng Nom Nua started in Phuket in 2022 and opened its Banthat Thong Road location at 1471, a short walk from Jeh O Chula. It runs from 4PM to 1AM, seven days a week.\n\nThree breads are made in-house: Shokupan, the Japanese milk bread built from Japanese wheat flour using the Yudane technique; Charcoal Chocolate; and Pain de Mie. Bread is served toasted on sticks, designed for dipping. The Shokupan comes out with a crispy surface and a golden-brown finish once toasted. Nineteen dipping sauce options cover the menu, including Pandan with Coconut Milk Custard, Salted Egg Yolk Custard, and Hokkaido Milk Cream. Lava Toast, a cubed bread topped with ice cream and sauce, is also available.\n\nRich Milk arrives in eight flavors: Signature, Uji Matcha, White Malt, Chocolate Malt, Taiwanese Milk Tea, Thai Tea, Butterscotch, and Pink Milk. A cup is THB 45.\n\nPricing: Small Set THB 35. Medium Set THB 105, which includes three slices of bread cut into nine sticks alongside three dipping sauces. Lava Toast runs THB 135. Payment is cash or PromptPay only, no cards accepted, so arrive with baht in hand.\n\nOrdering works through a QR code posted outside the entrance. Scan it to get a queue number, locate a table, then head to the cashier. MRT Sam Yan is the practical access point; street parking on Banthat Thong Road is limited.
