One bite, and you’re back in grandma’s kitchen. 💚 Steamed fresh with pandan & coconut—our Khanom Thuay is a nostalgic treat you can’t miss!
🇹🇭🌱 Khanom Thuay Bai Toey – Thai Pandan Coconut Custard Cups
Soft. Fragrant. A bite-sized taste of tradition.

At Nine Elephants, our Khanom Thuay Bai Toey is a beloved Thai dessert that’s soft, creamy, and full of tropical flavor. Served in tiny ceramic cups, these bite-sized custards are a nostalgic favorite in Thai households—perfect for ending your meal on a sweet, fragrant note.

🧁 A Sweet Slice of Thai Heritage

“Khanom Thuay” literally means “dessert in a cup.” It’s been a part of Thai dessert culture for generations, often found in markets and temple fairs. This treat is traditionally steamed in small porcelain bowls and served two layers at a time: the green bottom layer is pandan-flavored, while the white top layer is salty-sweet coconut cream.

🍃 What’s Inside?

Each cup is made with love and tradition:
• Pandan juice – for natural green color and floral aroma
• Coconut milk – rich, creamy, and slightly salty
• Rice flour and tapioca flour – giving it that soft, chewy texture
• Palm sugar – for gentle sweetness

Steamed to perfection, the two layers contrast beautifully in flavor and texture—sweet and salty, soft and creamy, all in one little bite.

💚 Why You’ll Love It

It’s naturally gluten-free, dairy-free, and made with plant-based ingredients. Our Khanom Thuay is hand-poured and freshly steamed in small batches, just like how grandma made it.

🇹🇭🔥 Tom Yum – Thailand’s Iconic Hot & Sour Soup
Bold. Fragrant. Unforgettable.

At Nine Elephants, our Tom Yum is a celebration of Thai flavor—hot, sour, savory, and aromatic in perfect balance. It’s the dish that speaks the soul of Thailand, and once you’ve had your first spoonful, there’s no turning back.

🌿 A Bit of History

Tom Yum (ต้มยำ) is one of Thailand’s most famous soups, believed to have originated from the central plains where herbs like lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, and galangal grow abundantly. The name “Tom Yum” literally means “boiled” (Tom) and “mixed” or “sour/spicy” (Yum). Over time, it became a staple in Thai households and street food stalls—loved for its bold character and healing properties.

🍤 What’s in Tom Yum?

Our Tom Yum is made fresh to order, using traditional ingredients:
• Lemongrass – for citrusy aroma
• Galangal – Thai ginger with a spicy, earthy flavor
• Kaffir lime leaves – for depth and fragrance
• Fresh chilies and lime juice – for that signature spicy-sour punch
• Mushrooms, onions, and tomatoes – for texture and sweetness
• Your choice of protein – shrimp (Tom Yum Goong), chicken, or tofu

Finished with a drizzle of Thai chili paste (nam prik pao) and fresh cilantro, the result is a steaming, fragrant bowl that excites the senses and warms the soul.

🥣 How It’s Served

Enjoy it clear or creamy (with a splash of coconut milk or evaporated milk), served with jasmine rice or on its own. Every bite bursts with flavor—comforting, complex, and utterly Thai.

🇹🇭✨ Pad Thai – The Stir-Fried Soul of Thailand
Sweet, savory, tangy, and utterly irresistible.

At Nine Elephants, our Pad Thai is more than just a dish—it’s a flavorful journey into the heart of Thai street food culture. Every bite tells a story of tradition, balance, and vibrant ingredients that come together in perfect harmony.

📝 A Taste of Thai History

Pad Thai became a national dish of Thailand during the 1940s as part of a government campaign to promote Thai identity and support local rice noodle production. It quickly grew in popularity thanks to its bold flavor and versatility—now it’s one of the most beloved Thai dishes around the world.

🍜 What Makes Our Pad Thai Special?

Our Pad Thai starts with fresh rice noodles stir-fried in a hot wok until tender, then tossed with:
• Egg for richness
• Bean sprouts and scallions for crunch
• Your choice of shrimp, chicken, or tofu
• Tamarind sauce for that signature sweet-tangy finish
• Crushed peanuts and a squeeze of fresh lime for the final punch

Every plate is made fresh to order, ensuring that perfect wok-char and authentic taste in every bite. It’s a dish that balances sweet, sour, salty, and savory—served hot, fragrant, and absolutely crave-worthy.

🔥 Watch the Sizzle. Taste the Tradition.

Whether you’re new to Thai cuisine or already a fan, Pad Thai is a must-try. It’s comforting yet exciting, familiar yet full of surprises.
