Why should you go there and how do you do it right?

Kaizen Coffee in Ekkamai is a café that consistently draws coffee lovers to the table. Two siblings, who honed their skills in Australia, run the establishment in a two-story, glass-walled building at the top of Ekkamai Road. Here, coffee takes center stage: espresso and filter coffee are prepared with meticulous attention to detail, and the menu is refreshingly free of fancy drinks with whipped cream. The kitchen offers a generous breakfast and brunch menu featuring egg dishes, açaí bowls, pasta, and cakes.

There is seating on two floors, but it gets very crowded on weekends. The food prices are rather high for Bangkok, more like a brunch café than a coffee bar.

It opens at 7:30 am, closes at 4:30 pm, and is closed on Tuesdays. It's located at the far end of Ekkamai Road, quite a distance from the BTS station, so a short taxi or motorbike ride is more convenient than walking in the heat. The other cafes in Ekkamai and the restaurants in Thong Lo are closed for the rest of the day.
