Say 'mai pet' for no spice, 'pet nit noi' for a little spice, or 'pet mak' if you want it Thai-hot. Most cooks will default to a toned-down version for foreigners unless you specify otherwise.

Why go, and how to do it well
If you're basing yourself in Nang Rong to see Phanom Rung, this is the kind of place you end up at more than once. It sits on the Chokchai-Detudom road, does the café-and-restaurant thing rather than committing to one or the other, and keeps mid-range prices, so you can drop in for coffee and end up ordering a proper meal without much damage to the budget.
What makes it useful is the timing. Doors open at 10:30 and stay open until 21:00, seven days a week, which covers the awkward gaps most small-town kitchens leave you with. Get back late and hungry from the temple, and there's still somewhere to sit down. It's clearly a local favorite as well as a traveler stop, so if you want a quiet table and unhurried service, mid-afternoon on a weekday is your window. Evenings fill up.

Tips for Visiting Restaurants & Food
Follow the Crowds
The busiest street stalls are almost always the best — high turnover means fresh ingredients and a recipe that locals vouch for. An empty restaurant at dinner time is a red flag.
Ice Is Safe
Factory-made tube or cylinder ice (used in virtually all restaurants and stalls) is made from purified water and is safe to consume. You don't need to skip the iced Thai tea.
Use Grab for Delivery
The Grab app works for food delivery across Thailand, letting you order from street stalls and restaurants alike. It's invaluable on rainy days or when you want to eat in your hotel.
