After a decade as a musician with a side gig of cooking for bandmates, these days Somphop finds himself enjoying daily walks through the market for fresh catches of the day and hand-cutting them for various southern Thai dishes served at his small, casual restaurant. Braised fish in salted soybean sauce; prawns with salted eggs and acacia; and wok-fried pork featuring the tender, succulent ‘armpit cut’ between the picnic shoulder and belly are not to be missed.

Customers with a sweet tooth and fans of deep-fried goodness line up here from 6am to get their daily fix. The deep-fried Patongko (dough sticks) and salapao are freshly prepared; the crunchy fries are golden-brown. It’s all very tasty; even without the dipping sauces.

Honouring Phuket town classics beneath the leafy canopy of an old mayom tree, this humble eatery focus on quality. From the short menu, we recommend the local fish, deep fried and topped with a fragrant curry paste. A nice spot for authentic local cuisine.

Go Benz

The constantly busy Go Benz has been serving popular dishes, including their speciality pork with peppery broth and rolled rice noodles, for over 20 years – and it’s easy to see why it’s quite such a popular spot. Many of the dishes often sell out, like the fragrant dry boiled rice with crispy pork and tender pork offal. Also well worth ordering is the crispy pork with sweet soy sauce, which is seasoned wonderfully and has a lovely charcoal-grilled crust.
