Why go, and how to do it well
Naam Yoi is a Michelin Bib Gourmand restaurant cooking local southern Thai food in a residential area off Rumpattana Road, near Phuket Town.
Phuket 101 rates the spicy crab curry with kanom jeen rice noodles, the stir-fried sator beans with prawns and the sour fish curry, gaeng som, which it warns is seriously spicy. Reviewers add the garlic-fried sea bass and the stir-fried bai liang leaves with egg. The room is simple and open, cooled by fans rather than air conditioning.

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.
