They are open on Sundays from 10am-2pm until October. You will find a variety of authentic Thai food. The ladies cooking and serving the food give generous portions and everything is priced between $5-$10. Only cash is accepted. Most of the signage has English so you know what the dishes are but if you ask, they will tell you what it is and how it should be eaten. It's best to go with a small group of people so you can try more dishes. There is seating under the tents to enjoy your food but it can get really hot so bring water to stay hydrated. I only saw Thai ice tea, Thai ice coffee, and longan tea being sold. Parking is available along the side of fence on Farrington Highway or you can go inside and park in the marked stalls.
Since this is a temple and there is Sunday service happening, you'll hear the monks chanting and walking around to bless everyone. To be respectful, there is a required dress code. It is recommended that you wear a shirt and long pants/jeans; no tank tops or shorts.
