Walk into Custard Nakamura for the first time and the case will try to sell you everything at once. Nearly a hundred items, sweet and savory, priced for everyday visits. This guide narrows a first order down to a shortlist that explains why this small Sukhumvit 33/1 bakery has been a Bangkok fixture for decades.
Rule One: The Custard Pudding Is Not Optionalまずはプリン
The shop is named for its custard, and the custard pudding — ฿60 on the current menu — is the single most recommended item across Wongnai and travel reviews. Silky body, soft caramel, clean finish. Buy one to eat soon and consider a second for later; regulars rarely stop at one. See it on the full menu.
Follow With a Choux Cream次にシュークリーム
The shu cream is the bakery's second signature: a crisp shell filled generously with cool custard cream. If you're sharing — or pretending to — the mini choux come in one-bite form. The choux pie adds flaky lamination for texture maximalists.
Cross the Aisle: One Savory Item惣菜をひとつ
Half the case is lunch. First-timers usually pick the pork katsu sandwich; returning visitors quietly switch allegiance to the menchi katsu sando, with its juicy minced pork and sweet onion. Compare the two in our sando guide.
If You Still Have Hands Free余裕があれば
A croquette for the walk back to the BTS, a custard cream bread for tomorrow's breakfast, or a slice of Japanese cheesecake if the afternoon allows a plate and fork. The best sellers page ranks the full shortlist.
Timing Your First Visit訪れる時間
The bakery opens daily at 9:00 AM and the case is fullest before mid-afternoon. Popular items sell out; the regulars' trick is to call ahead — 02-259-9630 — and ask what's available. Directions from BTS Phrom Phong are on the location page.
