Chayathorn, 31, who is in town for the cafe's soft opening, says Homm means "sweet-smelling" in Thai, and "to share" in northern Thailand.Its desserts are inspired by popular Thai cafe concepts, as well as the travels of Praewthip, 34, when she worked as Singapore Airlines cabin crew for three years.
Similarly, the taro bingsu is a party in the mouth. Smooth taro paste is piped into the centre of the taro "snow", and served with crunchy coconut flesh, chewy housemade pumpkin boba and a salted coconut sauce. These include tomato tartare with shokupan sticks and smoked salmon risotto, among others that the couple did a month-long test run for in Melbourne.
Homm is not their first time working together. From 2018 to 2021, they worked at Praewthip's family's business, running a foreign worker employment agency in Thailand.
