About The Pad Thai Shop
A plain local noodle shop on Patak Road in Karon that became known for its pad thai; a Lonely Planet article about the cook hangs on the back wall. Orders go in at the counter from a photo menu, and the cook takes his time, so expect to wait in a room of mostly local diners. Portions are large and cheap; the beef noodle soup is worth trying as well as the pad thai.
