Nongsaw Thai Food — Restaurant in Surat Thani Province

The Food: During my 3 weeks of travel in Thailand this was certainly the best Thai food I had. Diverse selection of dishes that go beyond just the classics. There is also a convenient and brought spiciness scale to help you pick a dish that matches your preference. The selfmade drinks and desserts are also of excellent quality.

On that note, I prefer quite spicy food and in my experience most dishes I had during my stay here, that came with a "spicy" warning, weren't that spicy. Here, I actually had some dishes that were at my preferred spiciness level. So, if you crave some actual spicy food, this is a good place to go.

Prices are below average (80 - 100 THB for main course dish) making it even more of an attractive option.

Service: It was run by friendly ladies, that clearly have a passion for their food. You have to come to their food counter to pick which curry dishes you want.

Atmosphere: It's a very simple and open establishment with furniture akin to picnic tables, pragmatic and typical for street food joints. So, don't expect fine dining in an airco'd room under...

I don't usually write reviews but wanted to share my experience. All went good during dinner, service is easy and fast. The food was tasty!

The positives ended at about 3am the same night. A sleepless night filled with vomiting and projectile you know what I mean ensued caused by what I assume is food poisoning.

I had the chicken massaman and caramelized pork. The curries are left in metal trays for who knows how long (I don't have any idea). It might be interesting to invest in some other way of displaying and keeping the curries fresh. That way, people don't have to worry about what I'm experiencing right now.

Wanted to give two stars since the owner was very friendly, the food was tasty, but there are some serious risks here. I can assume not everybody has the same experience, but I wouldn't say I have a delicate stomach either.

Edit: pretty weird respons by owner. Nice day to have ruined by food poisoning. The only thing I wanted to add was a suggestion and warn other tourists. So yeah, thanks...

We had amazing food here for several nights! Although this is not the standard order-at-table restaurant, you must not skip this place.

The owner makes the food fresh daily and varies from amazing, home made non-spicy to super-spicy curries with chicken, pork, fish and vegetarian ones. For 80thb you are served a plate with rice and 1 curry of choice, or 100thb for rice with 2 curries of choice and 130thb rice and 3 curries. Owner is also super friendly en enthousiastic to serve her food. Can explain in English what kind of curries she had made.

You will not be served at the table, so make sure to order at the food counter and drinks next to the counter. Smoothies there are amazing. You get your plate and can pick your own table to...
