Since this place is highly recommended by Google, we decided to try out the dinner on our first night at Phuket. The restaurant is located about 40km away from our hotel and the journey took a while since it was rush hours among the locals.
We drove pass villages, dark narrow roads with dim lamp post and for a while we are uncertain if we going to the right directions. We feel more relieved after Google Map also leading to the same directions.
The restaurant is located next to the pier where you can take boat to Coconut Island or restaurant nearby.
Almost all the patrons are local except us table and another table of expats that arrived later.
The do provide English menu however only one staff speak English.
Salad raw prawn despite being one of the popular dish among Thais; this is my first time trying. There is no fishy smell and surprisingly it gives after taste likewise fresh Sashimi. The chili however is just too spicy for me.
Almost all the restaurant we goes to offer us stir fried morning glory.
Seafood clear tom yam
Fried fish
This Salted egg squid is very different from our usual, not recommended.
Thai style steam seabass is highly recommended. it come with a bowl of base soup tasted like clear tomyam. Actually the soup tasted so rich soaked with the fish, taste even better than the tomyam. If you plan to have this dish you can forego the tomyam.
The star dish of the night steam live mantis prawn.The size of this prawns is huge from my wrist up to elbow. The prawn is really fresh while meat bouncing against your teeth as you chew . I never have such great mantis prawn in my life. It was so great that my other friends who stay back at Phuket revisit this place after we left.
The happy look at their faces.
We ordered 7 dish for 4 pax, yeah... we over ordered but everyone super satisfied with this yummy-licous meal.
