After expanding to Pattaya last year, Khao Yai’s Chocolate Factory has now quietly launched in Hua Hin.

 

Chocolate Factory Hua Hin (061-172-8887, www.fb.com/chocolatefactoryhuahin) features the elegant design of Party/Space/Design studio (whose credits include Bangkok's Shugaa, Crack and Hands and Heart), which sees bronze lamps, white marble counters and cream-color walls bathed in an abundance of natural light.

 

The Thai and international dishes include grilled rainbow lobster (B1,580), pad Thai (B220), steamed blue crab (B150/100g) and, of course, desserts like chocolate dome (B240).

 

The central location on Hua Hin Soi 65 means it’s close to the night market and iconic Hua Hin train station.
