Ko Chang


This sweet little cafe, stuffed with old retro couches and artworks, is as much a cocktail bar and teahouse as a place to sit down to a big meal. Locally famous are the ice-cream rolls, handmade to order on a freezer plate out front. There are also decadent cheesecakes and brownies and a lengthy speciality tea menu.
