In-Depth Information

rice, roti and lassis (though the local expats joke that every dish tastes the same). Platters
start at 350B.

(Hat Rin Nai; pizza & pasta from 200B; breakfast, lunch & dinner) Travellers rave about the pizza
here, but we found it mediocre, so you be the judge (but definitely skip the lasagne). It's
run by a team of friendly Italians and has a basic, open-air atmosphere.
Southern Beaches
On Saturday evenings from 4pm to 10pm, a side street in the eastern part of Thong Sala
becomes Walking Street - a bustling pedestrian zone mostly filled with locals hawking their
wares to other islanders. There's plenty on offer, from clothing to food. Be sure to try the
delicious red pork with gravy (40B) at Lang Tang - you'll find it in glass cases next to a
large English sign saying 'Numpanich'.
Night Market
(Thong Sala; dishes 25-180B; dinner) A heady mix of steam and snacking locals, Thong Sala's
night market is a must for those looking for a dose of culture while nibbling on a low-
priced snack. The best place to grab some cheap grub is the stall in the far right corner
with a large white banner. Hit up the vendor next door for tasty seafood platters, such as
red snapper served over a bed of thick noodles. Banana pancakes and fruit smoothies
abound for dessert.

Ando Loco
(Ban Tai; mains from 59B; dinner) This outdoor Mexican hang-out looks like an animation
cell from a vintage Hanna-Barbera cartoon, with assorted kitschy accoutrements such as
papier-mâché cacti. Jibing with the look, one of its catchphrases is 'cheese on tap'. Down
a super-sized margarita and show your skills on the beach volleyball court.

Fisherman's Restaurant
( 08 4454 7240; Thong Sala; dishes 50-600B; 1-10pm) Wooden tables on a sand floor look out
over the sunset and a rocky pier. Lit up at night, it's one of the island's nicest settings and
