Sayang Restaurant ซายังเรสเตอรองท์ — Restaurant in Ko Lanta Yai

Don’t typically leave reviews. But I had to. Food is mediocre - red curry way too salty ( and my salt level preference is high to begin with), the red curry came with the chicken and that’s it.

Must not miss the barracuda, thai tuna or freah shrimps if you get the chance. Came here almost a...
