About Ta Tuay
A small local restaurant tucked down a lane near Sarasin, in the north of the island, that few visitors find. It cooks southern Thai food the way local families eat it: sea grapes, the "green caviar" of the Andaman, a salad of horseshoe crab eggs, and priang sai pad cha, a spicy herbal stir-fry. Prices are low, and it opens from 11:30 to 21:00.
