It's been several months since I last visited Phuket Old Town, a place I hold dear. Today, as the clock struck 1 p.m. and my workday came to an end, I felt a sudden urge to revisit those charming streets. I decided to drive straight there, my mind set on enjoying some delectable desserts at Kho Rakhang shop while basking in the beauty of the pink blossoms that adorned the area.
The drive was pleasant, filled with anticipation and memories of my previous visits. However, upon arriving at Kho Rakhang, my excitement was quickly dampened. The shop was closed, and the area in front was cordoned off for repairs. My heart sank at the sight of my favorite dessert haven being inaccessible.
Standing there, a sense of disappointment washed over me. But rather than letting it ruin my day, I chose to see it as an opportunity. The vibrant energy of Phuket Old Town beckoned, with tourists milling about and the atmosphere alive with the buzz of exploration.
Determined to make the most of my visit, I started wandering through the quaint streets, each corner offering a glimpse of history and charm. The old town was a mosaic of colorful buildings, vintage shops, and hidden alleys waiting to be discovered. As I walked, I kept an eye out for a beautiful cafe where I could sit and soak in the surroundings. The search itself became a delightful adventure. I passed by numerous bustling spots, each one inviting in its unique way.
As I continued my stroll through Phuket Old Town, I eventually came across a new and intriguing establishment. The front of the cafe was adorned with signage advertising various cannabis strains and cannabis-infused products. The interior was equally fascinating, with shelves lined with an array of hookah paraphernalia and other smoking accessories. I wandered in, curiosity piqued, though the thought of consuming any of these products never crossed my mind.

The atmosphere was inviting, and the staff welcomed me warmly. Sensing my interest, one of them suggested I explore the second floor, which housed the cafe zone. Intrigued, I took their advice and ascended the stairs.
The second floor opened up into a beautifully decorated space that exuded a retro charm. Vintage posters adorned the walls, and the furniture seemed like it was plucked straight out of a mid-century living room. The ambiance was cozy and relaxed, a perfect contrast to the bustling streets outside.
Scanning the menu, my eyes landed on a classic favorite: mango sticky rice. The picture looked inviting, and I couldn't resist ordering it. Before long, the staff brought over a large plate, the vibrant yellow mango slices artfully arranged beside a generous mound of sticky rice drizzled with rich coconut milk.
As the plate was placed in front of me, the enticing aroma wafted up, making my mouth water. I wasted no time, digging in with eager anticipation. The first bite was heavenly—the perfect balance of sweet, juicy mango and the creamy, slightly salty coconut-infused sticky rice. Each mouthful was a delight, the flavors dancing on my palate.
Eating with hunger and satisfaction, I savored every bite. The mango was ripe and succulent, and the sticky rice was perfectly cooked, with just the right amount of chewiness. The coconut milk added a luscious, velvety texture that tied everything together beautifully.
As I finished the last bite, I leaned back in my chair, thoroughly satisfied. This simple yet exquisite dish turned a spontaneous detour into a memorable culinary experience. The cafe, with its unique charm and delicious offerings, had become a new favorite spot in Phuket Old Town, a place I would surely return to on my future visits.
After eating my fill of the delicious mango sticky rice, I decided to explore further and stepped out onto the balcony. The balcony area was charming, with several tables set up for patrons to sit and enjoy the view. From this vantage point, I had a perfect view of the bustling Manee alleyway below.
The alleyway was alive with activity. Tourists and locals alike wandered through the narrow street, stopping at various shops and stalls. The vibrant colors of the market, the aroma of street food, and the hum of conversations created a lively and inviting atmosphere.
I found an empty table on the balcony and took a seat. The gentle breeze was refreshing, and I enjoyed the chance to relax and observe the lively scene below. Watching the world go by from this perch, I felt a sense of peace and contentment. The combination of good food, pleasant surroundings, and the dynamic energy of Phuket Old Town made for a perfect afternoon.
