4 Tropical Delicacies
Phuket is a fantastic destination for a relaxing vacation – the white sandy beaches and the warm tropical waters make for a perfect island getaway. Now, while you’re enjoying the sun and waves in your own patch of Phuket real estate, perhaps at the Layan Residences by Anantara, be sure to try out some of the local delicacies – they’re sure to make your stay in paradise even better!
Mee Hokkien
If you’re in Phuket, there really is no excuse for not trying out the famous mee Hokkien dish. A staple of the local community, the dish is a delectable combination of wheat-and-egg noodles, seafood, pork slices and a helping of fresh greens.
Loba
This dish is a hearty combination of pork offal that’s braised in a selection of spices, and deep-fried snacks like spring rolls or fritters. Available at street stalls all over Phuket, the two distinct parts of the Loba are connected via a sweet dipping sauce that ties the whole thing together.
Roti
This the South East Asian version of a flaky pancake, and it is a ubiquitous dish all around the island. The Phuket style of eating roti is to tear it up into chunks and placing a juicy omelette atop the pile – an excellent combo that’s made even better with a bowl of spicy curry broth!
Oh Eaw
if you’ve got a bit of a sweet tooth you should make it a point to have this deliciously simple dessert. Showered with ice, the dish contains gelatinous cubes made of banana starch and kidney beans. This is a dish that is unique to Phuket and you’ll be hard-pressed anywhere else, so make sure you grab one while you’re there!
