While I was there, The Commons now is one of the best place to visit if you are a cafe hunter, known to many cafe hunter as one of the hotest spot now that house at least 15 F&B joints in this cool building that located in the heart of Thonglor Soi 17. Roast is one of a recommended cafe in this building by my Thai friend, as also one of a favourite brunch place.
Love the interior of this place with its raw and minimalist that resembles to many cafe in Melbourne.
This is how pack this cafe is during Monday morning when we were there.
This is also the first time I see a menu in newspaper calander format.
Love my cup of Latte @ 100 bhat that suits to my liking as it is mild enough, that give you the nice aroma of coffee which is not acidic.
Ice Espresso Latte @ 120 Bhat, with ice cube is the concentrated coffee and fresh brew milk at the side, after pouring, gives you the creamy and foamy top.
Fell in love with their Truffle Alfedo @ 320 Bhat – homemade tagliatelle is cook to perfection. Slightly creamy, topped with bacon, ham, mushroom and cheddar cheese on top with drizzle of fresh truffle to enhance the taste yet not overpowering. A perfect plate!
Their Croque Monsieur @ 34o Bhat is also done to perfection where a layer of cheese being bake along and top with a sunny side up. Generous in ingredient as is a thick 3 layer sandwich.
Now I understand why it is well known to many people. Maybe to foreigners and travelers as on my visit, 80% are all travelers or expat. Slightly on the expensive side but still one of a great stop if you are looking for great brunch and great service.
