ก๋วยจั๊บป้าไหม สวนหลวง

This was a place that I wanted to go because I had a real need for a rice congee. A Thai rice congee is something that I used to eat after a heavy night when I first came to Thailand and now I needed this as part of recuperation...

This was certainly a traditional Thai restaurant that we visited this night. There was a pot of boiled rice congee at the front of the restaurant.

The congee was perfect...

There was a plethora of other Thai Traditional dishes but I was totally absorbed by the beauty of the congee.

The passion fruit drink was also fabulous...

We will certainly go here again if I need a congee.

On leaving they also served traditional Thai style coffee - next time.

Coffee Coco-Nut

Do you want a traditional sweet Thai Iced coffee?

Here is a wonderful place to visit if you are nearby.

There are a great many choices for an iced drink but as nothing was in English I was stick to an Iced Coffee - "Cafe Yen". It is close to the Central Festival and near to the best Songkran gun Toy Shop in Phuket - ธดาพร ของเลน.

 A wonderfully interesting place.

We have been here more than once!

Street Foods - Sea Cicadas (Chakachan Talay)

The Sea Cicadas are not always found and I believe them to be a seasonal dish but I am not sure.

The deep fried sea cicadas are usually found on the West coast of Phuket - these were found adjacent to Maikhao beach. Here is some more information about the sea cicadas on that beach.

So what did they taste like apart from a little crunchy?
That would probably be the best description...
Try some if you are visiting Phuket.
