Kin Dee
Situated in the serene Mai Khao area of Phuket, near renowned resorts such as JW Marriott, Anantara, and Sala Phuket, Kin Dee Restaurant offers a delightful open-air dining experience. With its welcoming atmosphere and tantalising selection of dishes, this family-run restaurant invites you to indulge in their exquisite Thai cuisine.
Led by an ex 5-star chef and her sisters, Kin Dee, which translates to ‘eat well’ in Thai, certainly lives up to its name. The menu boasts an array of seafood, curries, soups, and vegetarian options, ensuring that there is something for everyone. Signature dishes include crab cake, smoked shrimp with crispy fern salad, steamed rice, and the irresistible sweet mango with sticky rice for dessert. To elevate your dining experience further, Kin Dee also offers a variety of drinks, beverages, and cocktails.
To find this hidden gem, head towards Phuket’s northernmost point, the Sarasin Bridge, and take a U-turn just before the Police Checkpoint. Next, turn left down the lane past the green supermarket, and you’ll find Kin Dee 150 metres down on the right-hand side of the road. For a certain minimum spend, the restaurant often provides complimentary transport back to your local hotel, adding an extra touch of convenience to your visit.
