The skewers are served with sticky rice that has a delicate and slightly sweet flavour. To complete the meal, the set also comes with beverages such as Thai milk or coffee and a fresh pressed juice served alongside a fruit plate featuring a seasonal selection – adding a touch of colour and sweetness to the table.
