cathy211 Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Situated next to Fuji on 2nd road, I ordered (based on the recommendations read on Thai Visa) the squid in salted egg and a shrimp in chili paste with steamed rice. Total 300 baht. Good value in this clean air conditioned restaurant. On arrival, all 12 tables were occupied. Photos of interior/exterior/menu/my foods. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 (edited) That shrimp dish is with sator beans also called stinky beans. Not everyplace has that dish. Another popular place that does is Surf Kitchen, Jomtien Beach Road. They do a good job with it there as well (even though their offerings aren't nearly as consistently good as the Big C place). In my experience, yes, pretty much every dish is done well at Kao Suay. Another suggestion: http://www.realthair...imp-paste-rice/ They do a great version. Recently a had a whole small fishes with dry red Chuchi curry there. Very yummy. Edited July 22, 2012 by Jingthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be visiting this place for that dish alone - thanks for the post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 The sator beans are quite popular in Southern Thailand. They are kind of like the durian of beans. I like them but many people do not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Nothing special at this restaurant.. I wouldn't say it's the best Thai food in Thailand but it is DEFINITELY a cut above the standard for Thai food in Central Pattaya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you hit the nail on your head with your earlier post: stinky beans. For me they taste and look great - but must contain some type of aromatic compound that the body cannot process (can't think of a polite way of putting it).
