Kata Place Hotel

(The restaurant is temporarily closed.) Samut (or ocean) is set in a traditional Thai-Chinese building decorated in an Oriental style, with dark teak wood. Previously the lobby of the adjacent hotel, it’s now a gastronomic destination. The set menu, with more than 10 dishes, tours the island’s coastline, offering seafood caught by local fishermen. The chef respects the traditions of the island, selecting flavours and fruits inspired by local creativity, including a reinterpretation of Phuket dim sum.
