The story
Tucked away on Soi Soon Utis in Phuket’s Old Town, Aong Messuni is a pint-sized street-food stall run by a husband-and-wife team. Its sole focus is the charcoal-grilled aong pancake—a Michelin-recommended snack that has earned a fiercely loyal following. The modest setup belies immense popularity, drawing locals and travelers alike. Visiting with his family, Luke Martin called the stall “famous for their charcoal-grilled aong pancakes, Michelin-recommended and incredibly popular.”
It’s a compact, no-frills operation where the couple’s precise grilling technique turns out one perfectly charred pancake after another. For those seeking a true Phuket street-food icon, this is the spot.

“This is my favorite dessert in all of Phuket. It's a very thin rice batter coconut crepe or pancake cooked on charcoal. The batter is fermented rice mixed with coconut and sugar. It's super crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. My family loved it — they said it's like a crunchy crepe with coconut flavor. We got 10 pieces for 50 baht, about $2. You have to order ahead because they're so popular. Michelin recommended since 2022, but I filmed them first in 2021.”
