I had dinner there a few nights ago. The cheesy garlic bread and spaghetti carbonara tasted good.
My Thai friends liked the food they ordered too.

It took longer than expected for the food to arrive at my table. Hopefully, this will improve after they've been open longer.

The prices are lower than expected! The restaurant is not far from Nong Sim Park.

Good food, nice staff, and reasonable prices. I plan to go back soon.

Being as its Monday today and our day orf Dao n I tried the new diary restaurant for late lunch ... first thing i liked was the place has its own off road car park ...second was errrr everything ....the menu is big and my first question as always do you have it all ..yes was the reply .. =D>

The food was excellent in taste portion size and price , i had fish n chips and a masaman curry Dao had Bruschetta and two other dishes i dont know the name of but she said both were excellent ...the bill way under 500 bt even including our drinks ,,,really enjoyed the whole experience , nice ambience and attentive staff will be back for sure .

Spoke to Chef Nooy and she has a wealth of experience including a spell in a busy restaurant in Phuket and importantly she realizes that the place must be given a time , a few months to get going and build a regular customer base ... 2 regulars here for sure Nooy .

YET ANOTHER great addition to the Udon eartery scene

Looks like the blueberry pancakes with real maple syrup are a hit, just the right consistency and flavour.

A stack of these wonderful blueberry pancakes is just 79THB.

Pics taken just this morning.

Also pictured are our Home Fries, excellent taste and CRISPINESS you could hope for at 50THB
Pics taken just this morning.

THUS we have an idea, and will go for it:

ON SPECIAL FOR 159THB you can have:

Blueberry Pancakes;
Home Fries;
2 strips of USA style "streaky" bacon OR back bacon;
and your choice of either Coffee or Orange Juice;

That's right, the lot for 159THB.

Pic coming soon as the chef gets an example cooked up for your viewing.

If you see the F-5's flying overhead this is likely one of the gents flying them.

I stopped by for lunch yesterday......had หมูผัดขิง chicken with ginger a lemon smoothy and a cup of coffee. The chicken dish came with lots of mushrooms and well cooked. Small cozy restaurant, nicely decorated, the chef speaks excellent English.....so I'd guess she could tailor to an individual's taste if requested.
Lots of good looking breakfast dishes on the menu......I'll have to pop into town earlier.
A nice addition to the Udon menu of eating establishments.

Post by **Diary-Udon** » February 12, 2015, 8:06 pm

Thanks so much for that Parrot, much appreciated. Was great to see you in and hope to see you again soon.

We've got the burger menu completed and we'll post it along with prices shortly.

And for those interested in our menu offerings, here are a few pages for the breakfast crowd...

Post by **Diary-Udon** » February 14, 2015, 6:58 pm

Thanks to all for a great week and wonderful reviews, -so very very much appreciated.

FYI: per our normal schedule, CLOSED MONDAYS

We almost don't want to close tomorrow (Monday), but the staff of course need the rest and we'll all be back again Tuesday as usual.

The success has been enough to know we will be inviting another chef on to work a night shift and Sundays, and when that happens, we'll post new hours.

For now our hours stay the same as originally posted on the thread OPEN: Tuesday through Sunday 10AM through 9PM.

Espresso machine NOW on premises, so new Coffee / Drinks menu forthcoming.

New things coming each week, stay tuned!

Here's some breakfast to look forward to Monday for....

Apologies, -Chef Nooy too ill to work today, -will be open tomorrow, Tuesday at the usual time, 10AM.

Post by **docta** » February 16, 2015, 4:44 pm

Chef Nooy, so sorry you're not feeling well. You have been working so hard taking care of family, little girl, setting up and beginning your wonderful new restaurant last 3 months no wonder you're feeling a bit under the weather.
Hope your fire returns soon ... we miss you and your delicious food already...
Family friend & Diary customer...
