Cheap-cheap 20 Baht Coconut Ice Cream At Pad Riew

Throwback to an awesome and super affordable coconut ice cream at Pad Riew แปดริ้ว!

Pad Riew, Chacheongsao
Pad Riew is the nickname of Chachoengsao ฉะเชิงเทรา, 56 km from where we stay in Bangkok. Things are cheap at small town in Thailand, akin to small towns in Malaysia.

 

Buying ice cream from mobile vendor
How can one say no to “Do you want coconut ice cream?YES OF COURSE!! And it was only 20 baht for this treat, and it includes shredded coconut flesh/meat and peanut topping.

 

Not a lot left
Simple, yet nice


Not Your Typical Tourist

A passionate advocate for independent and solo travel, I traded life in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, for the vibrant streets of Bangkok, Thailand. This shift is all thanks to a "chance encounter" in 2009 that led to marriage with my Thai husband. I currently split my time between Bangkok (my main base) and Kuala Lumpur for family—documenting the unique blend of a Malaysian life lived abroad.
