Just want to recommend this drama series from Thailand about gay men, relationships, found family, loss, vulnerability, letting go and moving on. They have their ups and downs and arguments but support each other through it all. It is beautiful in every way.

The name comes from the late night chicken-rice diner owned by Jim, who's struggling financially but does his best to take care of everyone, including raising his confused and rebelling teenage nephew on his own. Into his life comes cheeky Wen, who's complicated his own situation but is otherwise full of emotional intelligence.

One of the characters is deaf and doesn't speak. He and the nephew have their own distinct but integrated story line. Two young men helping each other grow into maturity.

All of the characters are genuinely good guys. Masculinity as complex, often vulnerable, and thoroughly non-toxic.

It's on GMMTV's youtube (or your favourite non-tracking alternative front-end) channel. Playlist on the link.
