Amazing local restaurant (as you can tell from the many reviews in Thai) by a beautiful bridge by the Chao praya river. About a 40 min drive from the city centre but the experience was so worth it! Came here specifically for the river prawns which we had for 850 baht and they were grilled to utter perfection. Took 20 mins to come but I’m certain every minute was spent cooking the prawn’s flesh to a firm, juicy, meaty texture. Menu was fully in Thai so that was a bit of a difficulty for us but also means that the food is catered to the Thai people and there was not gonna be any compromise on flavour! We went for lunch which I presume would be less busy than dinner, given the scenic views. The service staff would pour our beers for us and would even take out Google translate to speak to us. Thai hospitality at its finest! Mistakenly ordered two dishes we didn’t quite enjoy because of the lack of reading comprehension, but the Tom yum goong (which is one of the few dishes I know how to say in Thai ????) was pretty good! Such a chill place to dine and sabai sabai. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here!
