Just a little cheese and dough.

A little further down the bustling Thonglor streets and the fertile ground for cafes in Pridi, Pattanakarn is an untapped location for restaurants. 
 
 
Korakot "Big" Jaroenlap, co-owner of Cheese and Dough brought his obsession with pizza to life in this outdoor LA-style diner to this empty lot. Though the ordering area gives off vintage drive-though energy and offers a peek into the busy kitchen, the actual dining area is like a cozy neighborhood backyard party. 
 
 
There are classic strung up light bulbs, energetic tunes, long wooden tables, and benches to make this a hangout spot, especially amongst the after school crowd. The indoor is incoming, but for now, we’ll have to enjoy the ‘za al fresco.

As the name suggests, it’s all about the pizza at this spot. We recommend the classic margherita (B299) made from sourdough marinated up to 36 hours before using. The slices render a soft and fluffy feel which that goes in harmony with the sweet tomato base and fresh basil.

A popular order is the truffle (B339) which manages to keep things light but aromatic with their familiar earthy umami notes and has a little stretch to the cheese. Here, the slices are usually thin but the crust is significantly elevated.

The burrata parma ham (B495) is also an enticing pick. With a similar sweet tomato sauce base and the oozing burrata cheese, it manages to mask the green flavors associated with the rocket on top and matches itself with the savory parma.

To compliment the comfort bites, Lonely Wings (B189) are soft and firm chicken drumsticks generously coated in a house blend of hot paprika to Thai chili pepper. As a plus, it also comes with a smoky, sweet barbecue dip.

But if you’re feeling a bit guilty, a classic caesar salad (B189) is the way to go. The greens are tossed with ranch dressing. Red onions, croutons, and crispy bacon, made the cut, and a light pepper dusting helps break up the creaminess.
