Thipsamai (Thai: ทิพย์สมัย) is a restaurant on Maha Chai Road in Samran Rat, Bangkok, Thailand.[1][2][3][4] The restaurant is notable for its Pad Thai, using sun dried sen chan noodles from Chantaburi Province and a homemade prawn oil.[5][6] It opened in the 1950s as a street stall and subsequently moved into a physical storefront in 1966.[7] Owned by Sikarachat Baisamut, Thipsamai was named for his mother, Samai Baisamut, who opened the stall in Bangkok after selling pad thai with her mother on a boat on Phasi Charoen Canal in Samut Sakhon Province.[1][8]
