About Rimpan Seafood

A traditional seafood restaurant on the shore beside the Sarasin Bridge, at the very north of the island, where guests eat in bamboo huts looking over the water. The kitchen does not tone its food down for visitors: horseshoe crab egg salad, deep-fried sea cicadas and other southern Thai seafood dishes sit beside crisp pork belly. Prices are low, and it opens from 09:00 to 22:00.
