Posted by admin on August 12th, 2010 filed in Uncategorized

As you drive around the outskirts of Krabi you may notice the various garden restaurants with huge signs outside shouting about something involving 89 baht. You may have guessed it – it’s an all you can eat feasting ground for 89 baht per head.

Locally known as ‘moo ga tat’ but best translated as Korean BBQ or sukiyaki, this style of restaurant has grown in popularity in Krabi over the last seven years, originally starting out at 69 baht.

Diners are seated at large tables which can accommodate big parties of diners, with numerous mobile cooking units featuring a grill and pot for soup.

Once seated and drinks ordered, diners can help themselves to a variety of vegetables, meats and noodles for cooking at the table. There is often pre-prepared food such as fried rice, kanom jeen (rice noodles in coconut curry), as well as som tam (papaya salad) and an assortment of fresh fruit.

Diners make a soup and grill their seafood and meat at the table and spread the feasting over an hour or two.

There is always a great atmosphere and the chances of going home feeling unsatisfied are very slim.
