Dining out - more specifically on the street - plays a massive part of life all over Thailand, and Koh Samui is no exception. Discover some of the signature flavours of Samui on this evening street eats adventure. With a cold drink in hand, watch as the sun sets over the water from a scenic viewpoint on the north of the island, building up that appetite in the meantime.
After dark, head to one of the island’s most popular night markets to sample a variety of snacks amongst the thud of the mortar and pestle and sizzle of barbecues. Your guide can tell you exactly what to look out for, although many of the friendly local hawkers have picked up at least a bit of English by now thanks to the passing tourist trade. One tip for your main meal is to order yourself a traditional bowl of noodles; this is a chance to learn the art of ‘noodle seasoning’, where spoonfuls of chili, sugar, fish sauce and nuts are added to the soup to improve the taste. After dinner, cap off your culinary adventure with a beer or cocktail at one of Samui’s favorite beach bars.
