Another of Jamie's great recommendations (link below).
The proof of the pudding is in the eating. And it is more than just good. It was absolutely fabulous.
Jamie's notes on getting there: It's a few km north of
Would like to add that after the turn into the road leading to the restaurant, there is a fork some distance down. Take the left fork to the restaurant.
We had this Chayote vegetable -- some shoots with tendrils. It was so good, we ordered a second helping. Don't know what this is called in
Then there was the ultra fresh deep-fried Garoupa (fish) which was so good on its own we kept forgetting the special sauce that was served with it -- all because we asked for the sauce to be on the side so that the kid with us could have the fish as well.
The wing shells were fresh but had some traces of sand. But still we would recommend it. You just need to discard the tail end where the sand is deposited.
The hoi-tip oyster omelette used baby oysters which are rarely found in
The clear Tom Yum seafood soup was brilliant. The membranes on the cubed chunks of fish head retained their crunch, even the flesh on the chunks were crunchy. They could have given us more soup though and one of us thought the soup was a little too sour.
The food was so good we promptly decided that we would return for dinner on the same day, except that our plan was thwarted by over-enthusiastic shopping at Patong. Since that was our last night in Phuket, we will have to wait until our next trip. :-(
