Kluay, in Thai, means “banana”, but when repeated twice (kluay kluay), it mean “easy peasy”. But this long-standing café-slash-dessert place on the second floor of Lido Connect goes hard on maintaining a menu dedicated to drinks and desserts made from the yellow fruit.
The all-banana offerings here basically epitomize what Thai students eat after school: deep-fried bananas, banana smoothies, bananas soaked in buttermilk (you get the drift). But it’s not only students who have been frequenting this Siam Square sweetheart for generations. You can witness the love for this eatery from the notes written by locals and foreigners, and stuck on one of its walls. Customers are also free to write whatever is in their mind and tack it onto the same spot.
