Cleansing session anyone?…read more When you're looking for the perfect way to start the Chinese New Year! This is a temple which my mom's best friend who is Thai recommended as she comes here and brings food for the monks every week. During a Chinese New Year, as you may already know, Asian parents want you to wash all your sins so that you could have a prosperous new year. So mom advised me to visit the Virgin Mary statue in Long Beach and then to this Thai temple. Although I'm not Buddhist, I've been very interested in Buddhism lately as I've read a lot of scientific reviews regarding the affects of sound and prayer of specific séances which can actually heal the body and at other times destroy cancer. The temple is situated on a beautiful lot with tons of citrus trees and a bunch of oversized cock statues. There were three monks who worked on the day I visited. We removed our shoes and went in. We were then provided an envelope to write our name and place a cash monetary donation in. After that you kneel in front of the monks before they simultaneously start chanting. It was such a beautiful feeling and to feel the love and energy through their vibrations which really heals the mind and relieves stress. If you've into sound healing with bowls you'll like this! They then gave both my mom and I a necklace and a bracelet before we left. Traditionally monks are not supposed to touch a woman's hand or body so they delicately placed my bracelet onto my wrist carefully as to not touch my skin. They sent me home with some holy water to rinse in the shower and were so nice that they also gave me a huge serving of their freshly picked loquats and two grapefruits which were both organically grown in their lush front yard garden. The loquat skin was so sweet although the actual fruit was a bit sour. The head monk takes pictures with his guests and texts his guests pictures of their visit. The day after I visited he reached out to me and told me that he will be praying for three days to make me a special holy water. He also told me that when I come back, he had a gift for me and that it was a Buddha amulet from the infamous monk Somdej Watrakang from Thailand. This is the best therapy if you're looking to meditate and clear your mind. There's always a serenity that really cleanses the soul when you leave a temple or monastery. I'm definitely coming back here again and will try to be a regular.

I've the stall with the crab fried rice super yummy. The front building with the thai boat noodles very tasty. The thai tea and thai coffee is good as well in the front as well. My goal is hopefully to try all the stalls but that will take weeks to come. Too much good food not enough stomach space. After the viral IGs and online recognition from influencers it has gotten more busy but worth it for the vendors. So happy to see them busy. Hoping this stays here for as long as possible.

They operate on a token system, so be sure to bring cash or have Zelle ready to exchange for tokens ($1/token). They have a variety of food options, such as a beverage van selling regular/green Thai tea and coffee, as well as staples such as pad see ew and papaya salad. My favorites are the $1 pork skewers and the boat noodle, incredibly worth it and sooo flavorful! Honestly better than some of the restaurants I've had out there. For parking, if you don't want to park in the dirt, you might get lucky with a spot just outside of the entrance by the dead end (I've never had an issue parking at the curb there). The staff there are very friendly and sweet, and they usually have someone singing karaoke :) such a great place, highly recommend!
