Hey! Sis, let's take a look at photos of Jung Service, Branch 1 (Hea Kung) first... The atmosphere is like a time machine back in time. The pots full of river prawns, the dim lights of Ban Pan Market, give it a warm, family-like feel. The old wooden building has stood the test of time for over 80 years!

Review of Friends Chatting — Jung Service, Branch 1 (Hea Kung)
Sis... Today, Tom will take you back in time to taste a favorite restaurant in Ayutthaya! Jung Service is an old-fashioned restaurant that's been open since Hea Kung's parents' generation, over 80 years! It started out selling braised duck and intestines, and has evolved into a home-style seafood restaurant. But the flavors aren't rustic at all: rich and satisfying at a friendly price. It even received a Bib Gourmand award from the Michelin Guide!

A charming menu item you can't miss!
Grilled River Prawns: Large, bouncy prawns with juicy roe, fragrant with a natural aroma. Scooping one up and chewing on it is a blast!
Fried Salted Prawns: Deliciously crunchy, salty, and rich. Someone said it was "so delicious!"
Fried Catfish Cakes: Chewy, fragrant, and bite-sized. Ordering them here gives you a truly homemade feeling!
Fried Squid with Sriracha Sauce: Fragrant, juicy, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, a homey seafood experience with a deep, rich flavor.
Other dishes: Crab Crust Rolls, Tom Yum Pla Ma (Snakehead Fish Tom Yum), Fried Pork Salad, Stir-fried Lotus Stem with Shrimp Claws, and Corn Cakes — selected and prepared by Hia Kung himself, no lies!

Gossip-worthy vibes, Sis!
Sis… I'll tell you, the atmosphere of this restaurant is like an "old Sena-style house" not far from the big city, yet as warm and inviting as a charming vintage photo! Hia Kung (83 years old now) still stands and prepares the food and even greets customers himself! He's friendly, knowledgeable, and remembers their faces, saying, "This one's back again, isn't it?" This is his unrivaled charm.
