Sainam Pomphet

Ayuthaya


Spider crab – either steamed or fried with curry powder (pàt pŏng gà·rèe) – is the house speciality at this small riverside restaurant. Fish 'steamboat' dishes (in a simmering tureen) are also immensely popular. Those who aren't fans of seafood can tuck into a range of other Thai fare: try pineapple spare ribs or the spicy frog salad.

Outdoor seats gaze across the water and are kept cool by fans, and the live dinner music makes it a fully Thai experience.
