Why go, and how to do it well

Tucked away on the quieter island of Ko Mak — part of the Koh Chang archipelago in Trat Province — Baan Ingkhao By Somjit has built a strong reputation among visitors seeking authentic, affordable Thai food in a relaxed island setting. Its consistently high rating across a solid number of reviews points to a place that delivers reliable quality rather than relying on tourist foot traffic alone.

Guests can expect a casual, unfussy atmosphere typical of a family-run Thai eatery, where the focus is firmly on the food. The budget-friendly pricing makes it accessible for travelers looking to eat well without overspending, and the broad daily opening hours — running from 8:00 in the morning through to 9:30 in the evening — mean it suits everything from a leisurely breakfast to a sit-down dinner after a day at the beach.

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.
