"Popular with Thai celebrities and prominent politicians, this eatery tucked away in a tiny alley in Thalang deserves its excellent reputation. The chefs source quality local ingredients to produce intensely flavoured dishes that encapsulate the essence of Phuket. Highlights include stir-fried banana stalk with plump shrimps and shrimp paste, and melt-in-your-mouth steamed pork belly with their signature southern Thai budu dipping sauce. Booking and ordering in advance are a must." - Michelin Inspector

This is an old style family run local restaurant that seems to be a hidden gem for many Thais. It's more like a home conversion into homestlye cooking and seating restaurant with limited tables and small kitchen. Food are prepared specifically with pre-ordered favorites for individuals. This unique style could be a bit of a challenge for foreigners that want to try the local old fashion authentic southern Thai food. Many local most favorite dishes could also have acquired tastes that might not be thoroughly appreciated by foreigners. Suggest to order some more common dishes with one or two authentic dishes just to try them out. Pre-ordering by phone with 3-4 hours ahead of time including reservation is a must. Since kitchen is small and many of the dishes are made-to-order served one table at a time, this is highly recommended.

Home restaurant where you have to reserve table upfront and pre-order everything before your arrival. The place lives up to its hype, good ingredients, super tasty pastes, reasonable price. Ideal for those who want to experience local dining experience.

This charming local eatery requires advance reservations and pre-ordering of meals, ensuring a personalized dining experience. With only two exclusive tables, it offers an intimate chef’s table ambiance. The cuisine is exceptional, featuring authentic Southern Thai dishes with bold, rich flavors, served in generous portions. Due to the meticulous preparation by the two dedicated chefs, additional orders may require some patience. However, the culinary excellence makes this restaurant a must-visit destination—one that beckons for a return.

Very tasty and authentic southern Thai food. You have to book and order in advance. Seatings are inside Thai style house, not very comfy but taste of food is worth visiting. Been there twice and will be back again.

Underrated. Best local food in town so far. Have to order in advance because the restaurant has to prepare for the ingredient.

Tried sending a Facebook message regarding a meal reservation 2 weeks ago end June for a end July occasion. Zero response. If they have a FB account and post on it. They must have access and should respond. Unless they provide where, how and the specifics of reservations. No one will be the wiser. Guess they must think themselves pretty special and really above it all...
