Xinlor House - Phuket Old Town

For over five years, Sunee’s street food stall has been renowned for its Khanom A Pong—delicious coconut crepes. Cooked in mini woks over charcoal, the crepes are unique for their light, crispy shell and soft centre—a perfect balance of sweetness and creamy coconut. Be sure to arrive early at this beloved stall to experience these irresistible snacks.

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.

Merging the owner's fashion design flair and passion for fine fare, One Chun offers a vintage-toned dining experience in a 19C building. Diners still enjoy the family recipes, which have been passed down the generations. Among the specialties is a spicy yet refreshing dish with boiled shrimp and shrimp paste, perfectly balancing the salty and sour notes. Be sure to try "Mu Hong" for its bold flavours and soft, tender pork belly.

Soft, crispy, non-oily roti emerge from a huge charcoal pan. At this 70-year-old Halal breakfast spot, they're shaped, fried and served in the blink of an eye and served with tender beef or chicken curry. The sweeter roti with banana and egg has no added sugar.

The menu changes every month in this intriguing restaurant. Regular options range from home-made pastas to a signature seafood dish, plus specials that are cleverly curated to showcase Chef Tom's latest culinary creations. The chef artfully prepares his dishes, blending quality ingredients to tantalise the taste buds. And thanks to the ever-changing selection of handpicked wines, there's always something different to sip with your meal.

One of the oldest food shops in Phuket, now run by the second generation, offers the freshest seafood, all prepared à la minute. The chef's impressive wok skills shine through in every dish, with highlights like the aromatic Tom Yam seafood soup and deep-fried squid with garlic and pepper.

The legacy of the original roadside stall lives on, thanks to the owner's granddaughter. Famous for its boiled rice with fish, this humble restaurant also serves a variety of other home-style dishes that are worth trying. The quality is clear in these bold-flavoured plates. The deep-fried meatballs, made to a family recipe, are a great start to the meal and go well with the fresh fish menu, which is cooked in a traditional Phuket style.
