In order that most tourists travel to the north of the island,
it is not so crowded in the south. The locals in the south still
earn their living from being a fisherman. Therefore, we recommend
that you go for seafood in the south and you wont be disappointed
in freshness and price.
Red Frog Crabs |
Lobsters and Horseshoe Crabs |
There is a popular seafood restaurant
on Rawai Beach named Duan Suk Seafood.
Everyone talks about its good food at an affordable
price.
Alive Horseshoe Crab!

The restaurant is easy to find as it is
located right by the beach.
Huge Lobster |
Inexpensive seafood |
The restaurant opened in 2004. Freshness is guaranteed
because the owner picks up the seafood from the market at the town
centre by himself every morning.
The recommended menu for this restaurant is Lobster.
Lobsters here are famous for their size and rarity.
Although, there are a lot of lobster floating farms established in
Phuket coastal area, the restaurant owner chooses to serve the
lobsters caught by local lobster fishermen.

In order to tourist crowdedness, high land values, and high
rental rates, the food on Patong Beach is expensive. Choose your
lobster carefully. Go for a lobster that looks alive.
There are several ways of cooking lobster, however
the best method is to grill it. That way you can get the real taste
of fresh lobster meat.

Eating
tips:
- Order proper proportion.
- Order grilled seafood with a beer for starter.
- When almost done with the starter, order steamed
rice or fried rice with salad, spicy soup or stir-fried dishes.
- Use a crab cracker provided by the restaurant.
Dont use your teeth!
- Do not order a typical dish like Basil Chicken
Fried Rice. Its not worth it.
