I think it will still be there come December. They have pretty low overhead and a good amount of business, though not hugely popular. Their current problem is their lack of presence in TripAdvisor. They are just one block away from thousands of hungry tourists looking for a cheap quality meal near Walking Street. Though, their latest review is negative because the staff was not given the authority to override the computer's price when the customer got an old menu with old prices. Hopefully, the owner will learn from that mistake.

I think a chicken parm pasta addition would be great. I've seen the sandwich evolve over time. The first time I had it, it was a sandwich, the second time it was served open faced, but the third time it was back to sandwich form. However, I think the owner is focusing too much on price. Her pasta dishes are cheap. In order to do the chicken parm pasta, she'd basically have to charge for pasta with sauce then a additional price for the added chicken parm. Her pasta menu currently is laid out as: Choose Pasta, Choose Sauce. If she charged an extra 60-70 baht to have the pasta w/ sauce plus chicken parm, I'd be happy to pay, but others might complain that the price is out of line with the other pasta prices.

I often make my sandwich an open face sandwich, like this is.   Too much break otherwise

They already do pasta and they already do chicken parm.

So really nothing new on the menu with this. 

The current chicken parm is served with bread and fries. 

I think people would easily understand a pasta w/ sauce combined with a large portion of chicken parm would need to cost more than just pasta w/ sauce.

Got around to trying their fried calamari appetizer. It was fantastic. I would go back repeatedly just for that.

Just recommended the place to a few friends currently in Patts. Hopefully the thread will get them a few customers.

I was told by a waitress that they don't make their own pesto sauce but that all the other sauces are made in house.

I tried the spicy seafood spaghetti with black ink spaghetti. Tasty and definitely very spicy, possibly too spicy for many. people. It seemed like a too small a portion compared to your pesto dish.

That lasagna looks wonderfully cheesy. Which lasagna choice was that? I think there are three.

Maybe you misunderstood my post. I thought your picture looked an adequate portion. I had the seafood choice. The pasta portion was really unusually small but there were also seafood pieces in it which might explain it from the restaurant's POV. I don't really care because I didn't like it enough to order it again but I was surprised to see the picture of your pasta dish in comparison.

On the pizza, the first time I tried it with the seafood topping. The crust was the thin crispy cracker style. Not my favorite but OK occasionally.

Later did try the pad krapow pizza but the crust was made very soggy from the grease in the dish. Yes, grease tastes good but I doubt many people really like a soggy pizza crust. 

I have no idea if their pad krapow pizza crust is always that soggy but mine was. 

A minor annoyance on the specials offers is that not everything is actually included. On pasta day, the lasagnas are not included (but the baked creamy cheese pasta is). On pizza day there's a bunch of choices that are not included and also a bunch of the pizzas are already as low as the promotion price.

I had pizza there tonight and enjoyed every bit of it.

Going to try other menu choices next time.

A couple of weeks ago I sent a message to the owner if it was possible to get the chicken parm on pasta instead of in a sandwich. She responded that it was possible and a couple of nights ago sent me a picture of the dish. Last night, I went in to order it. It's still not on the menu, however, they said, "for you, we will make it".

The taste is much better than on the sandwich in my opinion and would order it again. I talked to the cook to clarify the "for you" bit as I told her I wanted to post it, but only if it is available to everyone. She told me it will be on the new menu "next month", then later said something like, "next month is just a few days away".

I'm not 100% sure of the price of the dish as it was not in the computer yet. However, the owner did tell me 220 baht in a message. Whether that's the price it will eventually be in the computer is anybody's guess.

Yes, I've had the calamari about 30 times thus far and it's very consistently good. I always get it no matter what else I plan to order. But in this case, the calamari plus pasta was a lot of food.

I forgot to mention. The cook told me that along with the chicken parm pasta dish, there were be a few more sandwich options added to the menu. The two I recall are a salami sandwich and a caprese sandwich.

That's great news. Of course it's better with pasta.

Only just noticed this thread - why does that keep happening?

Anyway, just in time for my arrival in a couple of days. I'll have to try this place out. (Just hope I avoid meeting one or two on here :GoldenSmile1:)

Thanks for all the reviews.
