Restaurant Mor Mu Dong

Mor Mu Dong restaurant is definitely a dining experience that shall not be missed in Phuket. In search of authentic Thai food experience a famous TV host Andrew Zimmern with his show "Bizarre Food" made an episode here.

But this is just the beginning. This place scooped the Michelin Bib Gourmand award for tasty meals at reasonable prices. What does it mean - the Michelin Bib points are awarded for simple yet skilful cooking for under 40 US dollars.

It is not easy to find and does not have any signs in English. But the reward is an unforgettable, authentic and tasty Thai dinner.

You will get a rather unique atmosphere and pretty interesting selection of food you should try.

Mor Mu Dong takes its name from its owner, Mor, and the Mu Dong Canal, where it is located. Nestled in a mangrove forest, it is housed in a set of rustic pavilions where diners can enjoy seafood and take in the views that change with the tide. In the open kitchen, tanks of live seafood affirm the freshness of the food. The signature dish Pla Tu Yat Sai, or spicy stuffed fish is highly recommended. It takes you at least half an hour to discuss how the fish has been prepared. But the rest of the menu is as interesting as that. Just a few more hints - blue rice, banana blossom salad.
