The first & only real guide to dining in Phuket

Choices!

It doesn’t matter how many Phuket restaurant options there are, if you don’t know about them, what’s the point? If you’ve no way to compare them, how can you decide?

Yet dining out in Phuket — whether for a special occasion at a restaurant brimming with atmosphere, or for a casual local Thai-style lunch — is probably the most important, and potentially one of the most memorable, elements of your visit to the tropical island of Phuket.

Advertisements are everywhere. Every restaurant in Phuket is ‘the best’. But at what? Do the ads tell you what it will cost, what’s on the menu? How much you’ll pay for a bottle of wine? Or, often, even where the place is?

Where to Eat uses a range of symbols in each restaurant listing to represent price range, facilities and other relevant aspects of each restaurant. This enables you to compare quickly one restaurant with another, and to work out which restaurants meet your needs.

Without real information, too many visitors take pot-luck, or go with the tuk-tuk driver’s commission-based recommendation.

Many stay with one or two familiar places, having had one disappointment too many — and no time to waste.

Most miss out on the fabulous array of dining opportunities Phuket offers.

And that’s where Where to Eat comes in: Consistent, reliable up-to-date information on restaurants in Phuket that puts the choice where it belongs — with you, the guest.

Reducing Fusion Confusion
by the Wandering Gourmet

A short time back chefs liked to call what they were doing ‘fusion cooking’. A lot of bad food appeared under the fusion banner and today most of them avoid the phrase like the plague. But it’s really a quibble about semantics. Fusion cooking and fusion dishes have existed since we first sat around a fire cooking our food. Today the only difference is that it happens more quickly and we’re conscious of the process.

The process of fusion is believed to have begun in the 1960’s and 70’s when there was a huge influx of Southeast Asian... Read more...
