- Plans special collaboration menus with local restaurants later this year
Following its massive success in Bangkok, the popular egg cake brand HAAB has taken a major milestone by expanding beyond its home region for the very first time, choosing Khon Kaen as its new destination to serve its signature crispy-outside, soft-inside treats drenched in rich butter.
For this regional expansion into a major northeastern hub, the brand opted for a partnership business model rather than managing operations entirely from headquarters. To ensure strict quality control, local staff underwent more than six months of rigorous training, mastering critical techniques such as heat management, butter-brushing timing, and removing the cakes from molds to match the exact standards of the original branch.

The store interior design also reflects careful attention to detail, incorporating architectural vibes from Songkhla's old town fused with the simplicity of a street food stall to create an approachable atmosphere for customers. The brand maintains its signature live-cooking process, baking fresh batch-by-batch to guarantee quality for every visitor.
Expanding regional branches through local partnerships and intensive training is a strategic move for modern street food brands to maintain quality control when scaling outside their home territory. The main challenge lies in preserving the original texture and flavor profile across new geographic markets.
Beyond serving their classic buttery egg cakes, the brand has planned an exciting project for later this year by collaborating with renowned local restaurants in Khon Kaen. This initiative aims to incorporate local Isan ingredients into newly developed menu items, creating a flavorful bridge between southern and northeastern culinary cultures.
Opening at Fairy Plaza Khon Kaen serves as a crucial test for HAAB to prove its scalability outside Bangkok. Interested food lovers can visit the new location or follow updates through social media under the name HAAB Songkhla Egg Cake - Banthat Thong Road.
