Khun Jeed Yod Pak Restaurant

Khun Jeed Yod Pak Restaurant is a very popular place for the local Thai people and I have since found out that it is also a popular and rated place for people looking for cheap, quality Thai food - in guide books and on the Internet - top 5 roadside restaurants in Phuket.

With it's popularity in Phuket please be aware that you might get there and there might be a queue outside to take away food and also a queue inside for seating.

It's popularity amongst visitors is recognized by them putting the menu on the wall in English and this is much easier to order from.

Before you are seated ensure that you have order some satay from the cooks in the front 

because they always make a good start to your food.

Then the wonderful food arrives - and the flavors are wonderful

every dish is succulent and fresh - a very real pleasure

even the plain ones were tasty - fried rice with prawns.  Certainly a restaurant to visit whilst you are in Phuket Old Town.

Tung Ka Cafe (ทุ่งคา-กาแฟ)

Tung Ka Cafe (ทุ่งคา-กาแฟ) is a place which which is situated just North of Phuket Town on the top of Rang Hill.

There has been some recent development which has made Rang Hill even more popular as a wonderful spot for taking a photo - I did - here's some of my visits.

I find the use of the old coat hangers at the front quite entertaining - I did wonder where they had ended up after the introduction of plastic ones.

There is a great selection of food to choose from 

and we are not disappointed with it and there is a lot to choose from. There are also a lot of fancy drinks and deserts - but I am always taken with the coffee.

They seem to have had problems with some tourists clambering into the surrounding area? 

A pleasure to see that they still recognize things of religious importance. 

I did wonder why there were reindeer on the balcony - it wasn't Christmas. It has become more popular with large tour groups which has devalued our visits unfortunately.

Also a lot of monkeys are outside - be careful.

ราชรสติ่มซำ

ราชรสติ่มซำ is certainly one of our favorite places for Dim Sum in Phuket Town.

In fact in all the times that we have visited I have never been disappointed - and we have certainly been there a number of times - in fact this may be our favourite Dim Sum in Phuket.

I would always recommend having the dishes that they are freshly preparing for you at the front.

and of course the Iced Tea.

Tu Kab Khao

Tu Kab Khao is an upmarket restaurant in Phuket Town. 

The decoration inside and outside is really quite splendid. 

I could have taken a plethora of photographs just of the furniture that surrounded us.

After the initial wonder of how beautiful the setting of the restaurant was it was time for something to eat. Happily I was not in charge of this and a wonder of dishes was ordered for me.

This does mean that I did not take any notice of what me ordered - but it was certainly worth it - the roti and the green curry was wonderful (top pic)- so good that we ordered it again.

Noodles House

Noodles House was a wonderful visit for me - the duck was beautiful - we returned again shortly. The restaurant itself is small and we almost missed it because it looked like a laundry because of the ironing at the back. Once we understood that this was the right place to go we saw the big sign - how could we miss that?

It is clearly a place that primarily the locals go - BUT happily the menu was in English as well.

The duck looked great. 

We had noodles with the duck

and we had it with the rice - both were wonderful.  Looking for some authentic duck dishes? Visit here.

Phuketique

Phuketique is a wonderful coffee shop to wait whilst you are waiting for a local bus to arrive. It was called Coffee Max but this did not last very long.

This is certainly a popular place to wait for something - the last time there was a lot more toys inside to to play with.

I always sat outside... Sitting at the Roundabout it is always interesting, always something different.

Then there was a monk today.

Certainly a place to sit and watch the world...

Dairy Hut

Dairy Hut is a restaurant that we have visited a number of times and I am surprised that I have not reviewed it.

The Dairy Hut that we go to regularly is near to the Bangkok Hospital Phuket.

It is also a location that Jamie and his family go to regularly.

This is what I usually order when we go - I hope to recall it's name by the time that I complete this but I apologise if this text is still there when you read this.

It is a reasonable quiet restaurant with outside seating as well as inside seating. We have always chose to sit inside and the food that we have had has always been okay to very good! And it is not expensive - so we keep going back.

See you there - I will remember to phone Jamie next time...
