Teow Tem Toh

What is Teow Tem Toh? Taking over the former Belgian Sweet Corner storefront at 237 Augusta Avenue, Teow Tem Toh injects Thai street stall culture straight into the bustling food corridor of Kensington Market. The operation is rooted in an Ayutthaya boat noodle broth recipe first developed by the owner’s mother in Thailand back in 2011. Inside, the room is compact, casual, and energetic, filled with small wooden tables and an open-kitchen momentum designed for rapid, steaming bowl-slurping sessions.

Teow Tem Toh Menu & What to Order The main draw is the traditional Ayutthaya boat noodles (Teow Ruer), dished out in compact mini bowls engineered for the ideal broth-to-noodle ratio so you can order incrementally and stack your bowls as you go. For full-sized entrees, get the Teow Ruer Beef Combo loaded with tender braised beef and meatballs, the sweet-and-sour Teow Sukhothai, or the wok-charred Pad Thai crowned with succulent grilled pork jowl. Pair your soup with crispy peek gai tod (fried wings) or a rice plate of khao kor moo, and finish off with creamy coconut mango sticky rice.

Know Before You Go Seating is strictly walk-in only, and the small dining area turns tables quickly even during peak lunch rushes and crowded pedestrian Sundays in the market. Finding street parking in Kensington is perpetually difficult, so take the 510 Spadina or 506 Carlton streetcar and stroll over along Augusta Avenue. The kitchen maintains steady daily hours from 11:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. for dine-in and takeout.
