普吉岛迈考海滩万豪酒店

Al fresco dining by a tranquil lagoon is the big draw at this restaurant located in Anantara Mai Khao Villas. The chef, from Maharashtra, takes diners on a journey through authentic Indian cuisine via an extensive à la carte featuring curries, a tiffin chaat platter and dishes from the tandoor oven. The cooking is flavoursome and well-spiced, with their signature lamb vindaloo a stand-out and the freshly baked naan well worth trying. Indoor dining with a view of the open kitchen is also available.

Across from the airport, this bright air-conditioned restaurant flies under the radar but lands simple, satisfying central and southern Thai fare. The skilled chef sources quality ingredients from local farmers and fishermen. The deep-fried seabass with fish sauce never disappoints. For the spicy southern-Thai sour curry, choose from pickled bamboo, coconut shoots or pineapple. The photo-filled menu, written in Thai, English and Chinese, makes it easy for everyone.
