Road Side Restaurant
Description
Pork with nam jim jaew, duck gang phed, and chicken with cashew nuts are the reasons to stop at Road Side Restaurant. The Thai cooking has more pull than the western side of the menu, especially where chilli, garlic and pepper are involved.
Tofu gets proper treatment here, not a reluctant substitution. Massaman curry, garlic-and-pepper dishes and fried tofu all land well for vegetarians, while papaya salad brings the sharper Isaan edge. Ask for mild spice if needed; the nam jim jaew does not arrive wearing mittens.
The room is simple, planted up and cooled by ceiling fans, facing one of Koh Lanta’s less cinematic road stretches. Ignore the traffic and focus on the food. Fresh watermelon juice, mango sticky rice and the pancake give dinner a decent final act.
Road Side Restaurant handles larger tables without turning the meal into a logistical expedition. Groups wanting Thai classics, vegetarian choices and a broad enough menu for mixed appetites will eat well here.
