Seaside Seafood in Rawai, Phuket, Thailand

On another night in Phuket, we had dinner with an old friend of my wife who we have not seen for some time. She brought us to this restaurant. The location and decor of this place is fabulous. It even had live music and it was good too. It is located just off the jetty on the south east side of Phuket island. With the al fresco dining and nice weather, the ambience was just right.

To start off, we had the oyster Thai style. Instead of just adding lemon or tabasco sauce, you add some vegetable, fried shallots, lime, garlic, a prawn paste and a special sauce. It's heavenly.

We also had a barrage of popular Thai dishes as you can see below. The cooking was reasonably good although not the best I've tasted.

Namprik with vegetables
Somtam or papaya salad
Phra ka pao moo or prok cooked with basil leaves
Phad Thai
Deep fried fish with fish sauce
Vermencelli with crab

The total bill came to about Baht 2,200 which was not bad considering the ambience and the amount of food that we had. Unfortunately, I could not remember the name of the restaurant as I wrote this much later and sorry about the delay.

Until the next time, cheers.
