    Curry puffs
    Kat J.

    The staff were so helpful in suggestions and directing us what to find where. I tried the curry puffs (delightful. Flavourful and a little sweet). We also got the mango sticky rice. It had a purple rice with a little more texture. The sauce and mango were perfect!

    I had the pleasure of visiting Patchmon's Thai Desserts & More, conveniently located one block east of the Art Gallery of Ontario, on the ground floor of a low rise block of cozy shops, on the south side of Dundas Street West beween McCaul and St.Patrick Streets. This family run business is a delight with the complete range of made homemade Thai dishes and desserts ready to take away available Thursdays through Sundays in walk-in or by pre- ordering online. Some of my favourites are the following offerings: Their prized SWEET DESSERTS: WOON KATI - Coconut Jellies - edible set of exquisite colourful flowers; TAGOE - Sweet Tapioca with Coconut Cream - The top salty coconut cream layer is balanced by the bottom sweet tapioca layer with young coconut and sweet corn when eaten together. MANGO WITH SWEET STICKY BLACK GLUTINOUS RICE -with al dente crunchy texture with fresh mango slices; KANOM TARN - Toddy Palm Cake / KANOM THUAY - Steamed Pandanus Cake- layered pandan (bottom) and coconut cream (top) together for a perfect balance of sweet and savory flavors. SAVOURY FAVOURITES: CURRY PUFFS - Hand-crafted pie with potatoes, onions, Thai seasoning sauce and curry powder.; Pad Thai Shrimp; SOM TUM -Thai Papaya Salad - Popular Thai street food originated from Northeastern part of Thailand. Spicy Ingredients: green papaya, carrots, Thai chilis, garlic, palm sugar, fish sauce, optional dry shrimp & roasted peanuts; HOR MOK - Thai Curry Fish Custard - red curry, salmon, minced featherback fish and vegetablesand tasty Croissant sandwiches The service and attentiveness by the Front of House staff as well as the family is exceptional. Pricing is reasonable for the quality, freshness and mouthwatering tastiness of their selections. A winner!

    Jellies so delish

    Delish 10 out of 10! Family owned, amazing service, beautiful AND tasty treats that are gluten and dairy free.

    Tagoe

    Everytime we're in the area, my wife just has to drop by Patchmon's and try their desserts. She loves how they're not overly sweet and have interesting flavours. The favourite: Tagoe, which is this layered treat of coconut cream, tapioca pearls and corn. Yum!

    I saw the sign for Thai desserts and I immediately made a bee line for the door. The store is small and really adorable, filled with beautiful displays of some of the many offerings that had me wanting to try one of... just about everything. In the front case are pieces of edible artistic coconut jellies in the shape of gorgeous flowers. Of course, I had to buy a mix of four. A set of four came with two flowers - both too intricate that I didn't want to take a bite. I didn't know what to expect, and was delightfully surprised that the jellies had a sumptuous coconut flavor and a firm but pleasant texture. There were also two golden egg yolk threads (foi tong) - I was told that each was made with one long thread to represent longevity. It's soaked in a jasmine syrup that had me eating both in one sitting. I also tried a mango sticky rice with black sticky rice topped with a coconut cream. The flavors were amazing, and I'm so glad I got the black sticky rice, because it had a firmer texture than a white rice, the mango was perfectly ripe, and the cream brought it all together. Finally, I also got three stuffed dough pyramids (kanom tian) for a savory balance to the other two delectable sweets. Wrapped in banana leaves, the mung bean, shallot, and black pepper filling was sticky, filling, and had a mild flavor that I can't even describe. If you see the sign for Patchmon's Thai Dessert, do the smart thing and check out their daily homemade items and daily specials.

    Coconut Layered Cakes (Kanom Chun) - I could really taste the coconut and pandan.

    I had been wanting to try this place for a long time, but never made it due to its limited open hours (until now!). I got there about half an hour before closing on a Saturday, and there were lots of people picking up their orders. You can order ahead of time through their website or by calling them, or you can walk in and select from the various assorted desserts and snacks they have on display. There are so many options to choose from! A lot of the items are vegan, dairy-free, and gluten-free (they use coconut milk / coconut cream, rice flour, and tapioca flour as the most common ingredients). When I went, they had special set packages for Asialicious. One of them was a "try a bit of multiple things" package, which consisted of Toddy Palm Cakes, Coconut Layered Cakes, Steamed Pandanus Cakes, and Cassava Cakes. Everything I tried was exactly as expected - delicious, not too sweet, and I could taste the coconut and pandan (my two favourite dessert ingredients). I wish they put more coconut shavings on all the desserts! Toddy Palm Cakes are unique because they're made using the fruit of the palm tree, mixed with coconut cream. These are probably my favourite, along with Luk Choup (mini jellies shaped and coloured like actual fruits on the outside, with mung beans in the inside) - this was a childhood favourite. The Coconut Layered Cakes (Kanom Chun) and Coconut Jellies are nice and chewy from the tapioca flour, with a nice aromatic pandan smell and flavour. Steamed Cassava Cakes (Kanom Mun) are a bit more hardy, but I still liked the texture and cassava taste. The Steamed Pandanus Cakes (Kanom Thuay) are soft and delicate. All the snacks and desserts there just remind me of the food I had as a kid, that we got from wet morning market. Everything tastes very authentic and nostalgia-inducing! It's not often that I come across a place that sells exclusively traditional Thai desserts / snacks, so this place is truly a gem (plus the fact that the location is easy to get to in downtown). As a family-run business, it has a very friendly and welcoming atmosphere, even as a small take-out place. The person who served us was super friendly and helpful. I'll probably go back to try some of their savoury items next time (e.g. Papaya Salad with Shrmps, Thai Fish Curry Custard, Curry Puffs), and to get more Toddy Palm Cakes and Coconut Jellies! They also have special savoury items every Saturday, that need to be pre-ordered ahead of time.

    I was passing by and noticed they were still open right at 5pm on a Saturday (their hours say they close at 5pm). Luckily, they still have some items available for sale. Their coconut cake looks so pretty in the shape of mini flowers in a beautiful pink and green colour so I had to buy a set. We ate that the same evening and it wasn't too sweet, it was lightly flavoured, delicious and chewy. I saw they had chicken curry puff on display so I had to order one to try. I personally like it and will go back for more. It was nice and flakey but not greasy. It was a good size and perfect to share as a snack! Next time I go back, I'd ask if they can reheat the curry puff. I feel it will taste even better warmed up!

    We passed by this place near OCAD and we want to have thai milk tea. We went in and it got a special that day for $10 for a dessert and milk tea. We ordered the sticky rice mongo, which was very good, warm and not too sweet. The thai milk tea was a bit watery. It is a good place for thai dessert.

    Patchmon is a family-owned small business and a place I've been wanting to try for the longest time but have never felt inclined to place a pre-order for their goodies. Was in the area and noticed people in the shop on a hot summer day. Was surprised to find out they are open on Saturday! Everything looked so good but just had lunch so opted to get a Thai curry puff and Thai lime iced tea. I wanted to be adventurous and try something different because I always get Thai milk tea! The lime iced tea was good but not mind-blowing good. The puff was delicious and not oily though. All in all, would visit again and would ideally try their desserts such as coconut jelly and rice/Jasmine cakes because they look so aesthetic and delicious!

    Snacks

    My friend has been raving about Patchmon's Thai Desserts for months. When she let me know about the store's Asialicious special, I had to place an order. I pre-ordered through their site. It was straightforward. I got the following items: - Asialicious set B (mango with black sticky rice, Thai iced tea, and Thai lime iced tea) - $10 - Small set of coconut jellies - $9 Prices include tax. You pay at the store and you specify a pickup interval. I chose last Saturday between 1:30 and 2 pm. I haven't been in this area for a while. The store is steps away from the Art Gallery of Ontario. When I attended Chinese school on Saturdays as a high school student, I would walk from roughly Spadina and Dundas all the way to the Eaton Centre. I don't recognize any of the stores along Dundas Street West these days. I do believe that Patchmon's is where Curry's Art Store used to be. It may have been a Chinese ink and calligraphy store well before that. I wasn't sure what the parking situation was like before I got here. There was a restaurant a couple of doors down with a makeshift patio on the street. A car was in front of it. Perfect! I parked briefly in front of this car and went inside the store to do my pickup. Aleen helped me with my order through e-mail, confirming that my time and day to pick it up was fine. I got to meet her at the store. She was so nice and friendly. For the coconut jellies, she brought three sets out and said that I could choose from them. They all looked so pretty. I eventually make my choice, albeit rather tough. A lot of their items are vegan. I was impressed. I saw vegan coconut ice cream and had to get some. She indicated that she also had durian ice cream. I immediately said no, which made her burst out in laughter. I'm not a huge fan of durian. Maybe my tastebuds will change down the road and I'll like it. I paid with my debit card. It was a smooth transaction. She put my Thai tea drinks in a tray, which I was so thankful for. I wished her a great day and headed to my car. I had the Thai lime iced tea first. So refreshing! I loved how the Thai tea and lime flavours worked so well together. I would have never thought of that combination. The coconut ice cream was yummy. It had little bits of young coconut in it. I thoroughly enjoyed it. As I continued to run errands throughout the day, I had the Thai iced tea. If you like the traditional, creamy version of it, go for this one. So good! Throughout the weekend, I had the desserts. I love the coconut jellies. They were so full of coconut flavour. The flower patterns were so intricately crafted. Delicious and photogenic! I had the mango with black sticky rice. Nothing that they make is terribly sugary, which I love. The natural sweetness of the mango worked nicely with the coconut cream on top. The black sticky rice wasn't all that sticky. There was a firmness that was enjoyable to eat in contrast to the mango and coconut cream. I had a wonderful experience. This place does have lunch specials and meals. I'll need to check them out next time. Last Saturday, my mind was on desserts and it still seems to be the case! (378)

    Patchmon's Thai Desserts is a family-run business where they operate out of a storefront at Dupont/Spadina. Currently they are only open on Saturdays for pickup or delivery (with a minimum order) during the pandemic. Preorders are made prior where you select a time for pickup if you opt for the pick up option. They specialize in a variety of Thai desserts that are specially handcrafted and made. Patchmon also has some savoury foods available for order as well. I preordered a variety of items from Patchmon's on Wednesday including their Thai chicken with rice dish, Thai fish curry with vermicelli, their curry puffs, fish custard, and premium coconut jellies. Since I ordered the premium coconut jellies set I had to send an etransfer prior. The ordering form online was easy to use and staff promptly answered any questions I had. On Saturday for the pickup, I arrived at my allotted time slot but still had to wait to enter the store as they only allow one customer at at time (the space is quite small). I waited about 5 minutes before entering. My order was promptly packed and the staff were extremely friendly during my short visit there. Food wise, everything was delicious! The premium coconut jellies were so beautifully handcrafted - I almost didn't want to eat them! Taste wise, they were not too sweet and very smooth tasting with a hint of coconut. Would definitely recommend ordering these for a gift (or for yourself!). The Thai chicken with rice was cooked well and the sauce that came with the dish was the real star. The fish curry vermicelli was unique and I enjoyed the fish balls it came with. Spice wise, it was not too spicy which I appreciated. The curry puff (I opted for the taro and mushroom savoury puff) was flaky and had a lot of filling inside. The fish custard was unique - I don't think I've tried anything like that before so it was good to try. I also got a Thai iced tea which was refreshing as well. Overall, friendly staff, prompt service, and delicious food! Definitely do go try Patchmon's if you haven't yet!

    Coconut jellies. So pretty! Would make a nice gift as well.

    I've only had Patchmon desserts at the Sweetery Food Festival but was so excited to see them open near Chinatown! One week, we also pre-ordered some hot meals, desserts, and drinks. The BBQ chicken on rice was delicious! The spicy sauce it came with was crazy good (I would definitely buy a bottle if they sold it). I wish their hot meal menu wasn't on a rotating basis. I would love to get the BBQ chicken more often. We also the green and regular Thai milk tea. Strong flavour and worth it! In terms of the desserts and pastries, the first time we went we got the coconut jellies shaped like flowers. Very beautifully arranged and strong coco flavour. However, a standout was the curry puff pastries! Overall, very much worth a visit! Some of the items are more pricy, but you do get what you paid for.

    Ok late to the show but I'd bookmarked Patchmon's ages ago to try and then completely forgot about going (especially being stuck in Covidland hell at the hospital for the past 6months)). SO I made a huge order to support this little tiny fam run toronto restaurant (because it would be a crying shame if we lost the only thai dessert place like this in Canada (at least I don't think any other place like this exists). They only take preorders for pickup & delivery on Saturdays and stuff will sell out, so order early! From top Left clockwise to the middle: Thai steamed #chicken on #rice (like a more incredible version of Hainanese chicken, I was in foodie heaven) hor mok #fish #curry custard (soo good) steamed flour w #coconut filling in #bananaleaves #egg #custard w #stickyrice coconut #jellies curry #puffs #taro custard sweet tapioca w coconut cream & corn center: coconut layered #cakes All so amazingly good and unique! I plan to order more to try next time

It was so well-balanced and flavourful. The dumplings were AMAZING! The butterly pea infused tapioca gave the perfect bouncy, chewy texture to the outside and the mushroom and radish centres were so tasty. Our waitress explained that they should be eaten in a lettuce cup with cilantro, mint and peanuts. YUM! Such a flavour bomb. The only thing I would have changed would be to add some sort of a spicy, salty, sour dipping sauce like a nuoc cham. The green papaya fritters were also just fantastic. They were crispy, crunchy and the dipping sauce was a little spicy and sweet. All in all, we really enjoyed our meal and would 100% return. I have already reccomended them to others.

The soft shell crab pad Thai exemplifies the kitchen's willingness to honor tradition while exploring thoughtful variation.

The experience appeals to those seeking sophisticated Thai dining executed with cultural literacy, though contextual factors merit thoughtful consideration.

    Le Lert is a lovely hidden gem that serves really interesting Thai fusion dishes and drinks. From…read morethe outside you can't see what a big and pretty restaurant it is inside. I've tried the Tom yum prawn spaghetti and khao soi, both of which have really authentic strong, rich and punchy Thai flavours. Some of the cocktails and desserts also have interactive components like flambé, which makes the experience quite interesting. Service is friendly and the space is clean. Will definitely be back to try more of their menu.

    The food and food presentation at Le Lert is fantastic. We tried the Pad Thai, Grilled Pork…read moreSkewers, Chicken Pad Krapow and a samosa-like appetizer, all were excellent. Service was very friendly. Normally this would be a 5-star review, but there were a few things that stopped that... the dining room is just way too bright, I prefer more comfortable, lower lit environments to elevate the overall experience. We ordered an appetizer, which came out first, but then they didn't give us the time to finish it. The main dishes came out right after, so we were rushed. Lastly, there were some items on the dinner menu we wanted to try, but they refused, only brunch items were available. Food portions were good, but could have been bigger. Ignoring all of that, the food is amazing. If you're into Thai food, this place is a must.

    My friend and I came here for dinner on a Wednesday evening. It was very busy, but we were able to…read moreget a table after a short wait. Food: I ordered the garlic tofu to start. It was breaded in panko and was very good! For my entree, I ordered the tofu/veggie panang curry. This was surprisingly not as liquid as I was expecting. However, it was very good! Service: Service was friendly but a tad slow. They were quite busy though, so it was understandable. Our server was busy running around the entire time we were there. TL;DR - good food and reasonably slower service when busy.

    Finally got to visit Khao San Road!!…read more I liked the ambiance of this place, as it was nice and cozy! The service was fast and friendly as well. I ordered the Khao Soi and we also tried the Bangkok Style Pad Thai and Pad See Ew. All the dishes quantity was alot. From the pictures online, it looked like it would not be filling, but it was just right. All the main dishes were $21.75. The Khao Soi was super creamy and you can choose your protein and spice level! They didn't skimp out on the protein, the bowl was loaded. It was so creamy that it became alittle too rich for me at the end. I think if I visit next time, I would opt to try another dish. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a place with decent pricing, quantity, and friendly service!
