I’m of the opinion that an egg goes with everything.
But not many may agree, especially if it’s ice cream!
Yes, raw egg yolk with your ice cream. Yay or nay? 🙂
What you see below is homemade coconut/vanilla ice cream from Songkhla Old Town. And what makes it refreshingly different is the addition of RAW egg yolk to the whole ensemble, after which a drizzle of condensed milk and a scoop of Milo (chocolate powder) dusting completes this endearing dessert. You may opt to add palm seeds, bananas, candies and other goodies if you like. There’s a whole lot of add-ons you may choose from but banana, milo and extra condensed milk is by far the most popular. Price is about from 20-40 baht (RM2 – RM4)Â depending on your order.
Your ice cream order in a nutshell:
Vanilla or Coconut or both? Raw egg yolk? Other toppings? Milo? More condensed milk?
End result: Happy customer! 🙂
Here’s Vincent from The Star- He was hesitant with the egg yolk at first but in the end he went all out and added it anyways to his ice cream! Good for you Vincent! 🙂
This small little shop is one of the many along Nang Ngam Road in Old Town of Songkhla city. A stroll here is like a blast to the past, in a good, nostalgic way.
Refreshing sweet coconut water is another option if you do not want ice cream but most of us had 2 orders each; one ice cream and one coconut juice! 🙂

Gimme the raw egg anytime with any ice-cream…I’ll skip d rest =)
Plus 3 glasses of the coconut juice…hehe 😛
Fuh! So many of the other media didn’t dare to try, good to know ur up for it 😛
ooo, i guess if the egg is pasteurized and handled with great hygiene, then it’d be definitely worth trying. i don’t think i’d mind the taste, but the risk of salmonella poisoning is scary. actually, this could be a fun recipe to try at home, since you could quite easily buy both ice cream and raw eggs from the supermarket. i wonder what ice cream flavor might work best with egg, heh. maybe black sesame 😀
Hahaha.. I doubt it Sean. It’s roadside SOngkhla! Heheh..
Saw this on my arrival at the office this am. I saw my breakfast again.
Breakfast?? You had this every day when you’re in Thailand? 😀
No I saw this mornings breakfast again one hour after I’d eaten it!
The Thai coconut ice cream is so sinfully good! But I haven’t try one out with the egg yolk…
Where did you try it?? Maybe this is only in Songkhla?
I tried the coconut ice cream in one of the roadside stall in Phuket and also another time in Bangkok. 🙂
Ahh it’s a Thailand thing then 😛
Ice-cream with raw egg? How the taste like? Did you throw out? hehehehehehe
OH no! I slurped up every bit! :DD
