You name it, we have it here, if you are a vegetarian, you've come to the right place.
 
Over the last 10 years Koh Samui has developed into an international community, with all this culture and diversity we now have restaurateurs and chefs living and working on the island that cover the cuisines of many different nationalities including, Japanese, Spanish, German, Indian, Swiss, French, Chinese, Italian, Swedish plus many more. Western food is also available everywhere on the island we even have 2 McDonalds located in Chaweng and Lamai and not to be hard done by, KFC recently opened up its doors at Tesco Lotus.
 
One of the things we recommend you do while you're here, is to try eating at one of the outdoor markets or at one of the many food stalls you will find at the side of the road.
 
By eating this way, you will find some of Koh Samui's most authentic Thai food you will also get to sample the real ambience of Koh Samui, the air will be filled with the noise of the everyday hustle and bustle of the local people relaxing and eating after work. You really won't be disappointed with your experience the food will be hot, tasty and very affordable.
 
One thing you'll notice while you're here is the Seafood, Koh Samui is an ideal place to eat fresh, tasty fish, the choice is amazing and the price will also be pleasing to your pocket as well. You will see many of the restaurants display there various choices of fish on ice for you to look at and choose.
 
When you decide which fish you want, to make sure its fresh you need to look at the fishes eyes, they should be bright, not cloudy. Also a good sign of freshness is the fish should be firm to the touch, remember it's your choice to buy so don't hesitate to smell it before you choose it.
 
     
 
Thai food contains 3 main ingredients. Here's the big 3.

Fish Sauce (Naam Pla) : Fish sauce is key to Thai cuisine. There are a variety of small fishes that are used to make it they include, anchovies, shrimp, and squid.

Roasted Chilli Paste (Nahm prik pow) : This is the ingredient that gives the Thai dishes kick. The paste contains chilies that have been roasted and mixed with ingredients including shrimp paste, garlic tamarind, and palm sugar.

Herbs : Thai cuisine relies heavily on fresh herbs. In Thailand, lemongrass, kefir lime and galangal grow everywhere and these three ingredients make up the base of most Thai dishes. Thai's also like to add, Lime and Ginger.
