Step Back in Time: Hainan-Style Breakfast at Ek Teng Phu Ki (เอกเต็งผู้กี / 益生甫記) in Bangkok’s China

Hidden in the heart of Bangkok Chinatown (Yaowarat), Ek Teng Phu Ki (เอกเต็งผู้กี / 益生甫記) offers a nostalgic escape to the good old days of the 60s and 70s. This Hainan-style breakfast gem has been serving comforting classics for generations — and it's still winning hearts today.

From the moment you enter, you’re welcomed by vintage Chinese décor, handwritten menus on wooden boards, and an atmosphere that feels like a scene from a retro film. It’s the perfect slow morning spot to enjoy a simple, satisfying meal in peace.

The star here is the Hainan toast (海南烤面包) — thick-cut bread grilled to perfection, served with rich butter or sweet kaya. Pair it with the iconic half-boiled eggs (半熟蛋) seasoned with a splash of soy sauce and pepper — the taste is nostalgic and comforting, just like grandma’s kitchen.

Their local-style hot drinks are also a must. Choose from traditional Thai milk tea, local-style coffee, or hot cocoa — served old-school and full of flavor. Whether you're a tourist or a local, this place invites you to sit down, unwind, and soak in a true Bangkok breakfast experience.

Located right in Yaowarat, it’s a great stop before exploring temples, gold shops, and hidden alleys. The prices are affordable, the quality is high, and the atmosphere is unbeatable for those chasing a bit of old-time charm.
