Ko Tao


One of the most pleasant settings in town, the food here is equally special. The signature dish is hor mok maprao on (chicken, shrimp and fish curry served in a young coconut) but the white snapper fillet in creamy red curry sauce is also excellent and there's a choice of vegetarian dishes.

If you can't decide, allow the chef to cook a range of starters and mains of their choosing (900B), suited to your spice levels and culinary proclivities.
