Suay

Top choice in Phuket

LoginSave

Launched in 2017 in a sleek glassed-in space, the Cherngtalay branch of star Phuket chef Noi Tammasak's sought-after Suay is a fusion-tastic sensation. Menus feature such creative delights as mushroom carpaccio, lemongrass-grilled lamb chops, Shanghai noodles dressed in sweet-basil pesto and tofu steak doused in kôw soy sauce. Don't miss the reimagined mango sticky rice with sesame ice cream.

Vegetarians: you have your own delicious, dedicated menu. The original Suay, in Phuket Town, remains as popular as ever.
