Learn the Spice Scale

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

Cafe de Khong sits in the small riverside town of Khong Chiam, at the point where Ubon Ratchathani meets the Laos border — one of Thailand's most scenic and least-visited corners. The restaurant draws travelers exploring the Two-Color River, where the Mekong and Mun rivers meet, offering a relaxed setting to pause and eat after a day of sightseeing in the area.

The menu centers on Thai cuisine at mid-range prices, making it accessible without feeling rushed or overly touristy. The location and atmosphere appear to be the real draw here, with the restaurant linked to the well-regarded Tohsang Khongchiam Resort, lending it a polished but unhurried character suited to the pace of this quiet riverside town. It is a natural stop for those spending a night or two exploring nearby Pha Taem National Park and the prehistoric cliff paintings along the Mekong.

On weekdays, the restaurant closes at 9pm, while Friday and Saturday hours extend to 10pm — worth noting for those planning an evening meal after a full day of exploring. Visitors traveling from Ubon Ratchathani city should allow roughly 90 minutes by road. Checking the website at tohsang.com or calling ahead is advisable during quieter seasons, as opening hours in smaller Thai towns can vary around public holidays.

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.
