Here are some of the statements from TOP 25 restaurants about us:

At POTONG, chef Pam presents a modern and exciting experience of progressive Thai-Chinese cuisine. The restaurant is located near the entrance to Sampeng Market in a 120-year-old Sino-Portuguese-style building, the former medicine house of Pam's great-great-grandparents. POTONG's sophisticated menu takes you on a culinary and sensory journey through time as you wander from floor to floor, experiencing the atmosphere and history of the building.
