🇹🇭 Rare Toddy Palm Curry: 👕 T-shirts: 🌶 Ghost Chili: Trat (ตราด), Thailand - We are continuing with our adventure to eat Thailand’s 5 hidden dishes and today we’re in the eastern province of Trat and specifically on the famous Ko Chang Island (เกาะช้าง) to search and eat a prize fish; coral grouper. Chantorn Pochana (จันทรโภชนา): - But on the way we stopped to eat at Chantorn Pochana (จันทรโภชนา), one of the legendary restaurants in Chanthaburi, on the way to Trat. We ordered their signature pork with garcinia leaves (หมูชะมวง), fish with cardamom stems (กระวานผัดฉ่าปลา), and boiled fish with snake fruit (ต้มปลาระกำ). Highly recommended, the food is fantastic. We then continued to Trat and took the ferry to Koh Chang Island. Salak Phet Seafood (สลักเพชรซีฟู้ด): - The main destination for today is Salak Phet Seafood (สลักเพชรซีฟู้ด) to eat Coral Grouper (Pla Yum Sawat ปลาย่ำสวาท), one of the prized fish that they catch in this region of Thailand. They catch them wild, and then store them fresh in ocean nets, so you are guaranteed an extremely fresh fish. They are so fresh in fact that the best way to eat coral grouper is raw as sashimi. But along with sashimi we had steamed coral grouper and boiled the bones and head for a coral grouper soup. Khao Kwan Restaurant (ร้านอาหาร ข้าว ขวัญ): - Finally for dinner we went to a restaurant that received a long of good reviews and a little bit of a fancier dining experience. Again, they have a dish on their menu using coral grouper, which in Thai is called a type of Plaa (พล่าปลาย่ำสวาท). The food was tasty, very fresh, and with a beautiful presentation.
