Pad Sataw Goong<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

     The best place to start is with a classic Southern Thai favorite known as Pad Sataw Goong<\/strong>. An absolute hit with the locals, this is a dish made up of nutty beans, fresh prawns, and curry paste. A bit overwhelming if you\u2019re not used to the smell, but delightful once you get used to it.<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Hokkien Noodles<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

Hokkien Noodles<\/strong> are up there as some of the most popular dishes among local Phuketians and domestic tourists from the mainland. These classic Chinese chewy noodles with red pork and cabbages are a lovely, hearty option that is always bound to be a hit. Two of the best places to find these noodles are at Lock Tien restaurant in Phuket\u2019s old town or at a famous 70-year-old stall called Mee Ton Poe (Michelin plate)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

O Tao<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

Nearby is another classic stall called O Tao<\/b> Bang Niao, serving O Tao<\/b><\/span>, a scrumptious combination of seafood, taro, flour, eggs, and pork cracklings. The stall has earned itself a Michelin Plate and its classic dish is considered one of the best local comfort foods in Phuket.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Khao Tom Haeng<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

Khao Tom Haeng<\/b> or dry rice porridge is another classic dish loved by the locals on the island. It is made with an incredible broth, topped with marinated and crispy pork, and garnished with fresh shallots. Go Benz in Phuket town is hands down the best place to find this famous dish and is usually packed during the evenings so it would be wise to get there early!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

Loba<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

If you\u2019re feeling a little bit more adventurous, a plate of Loba<\/strong><\/span> is the perfect dish. A dish consisting of chewy braised pork offal (intestines) in peanut or tamarind sauce, Loba<\/strong> is loved by the locals but not truly popular with international travelers.  <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Roti or Oh Aew<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

If you\u2019ve got more of a sweet tooth and prefer something on the sugary side of life, the classic Roti<\/b><\/span> or Oh Aew<\/b><\/span> desserts will always hit the spot. Roti<\/b> stalls are found on most beach areas and night markets across the island, and are typically served with eggs, butter and condensed milk. <\/span>While Roti<\/b> is served hot, Oh Aew<\/b> is a cold dessert made of shaved ice and topped with red beans, jelly, and red sweet syrup. This is one of the most popular <\/span>local Thai desserts, perfect on a scorching hot day on the beach or after a heavy savory dinner.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

Khanom Ah Pong<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

Finally, Khanom Ah Pong<\/b><\/span> is another classic and signature dessert found on the island, but one which is now becoming increasingly rare. A thinly rolled crepe made of rice flour and coconut milk, this dessert is as synonymous with Phuket as are its many beaches.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
