Choosing an Italian dish to eat, pasta always comes to our minds, so if you have a soft spot for pasta, go ahead and try the Vongole at ฿420 (~USD12.06). The highlight of this dish is the Mediterranean clams cooked with white wine, chillies, and garlic. It will smell amazing when served at your table.
