If you go to Chaweng you can get at almost every shop a diningguide for Samui with the best local and international cuisine......i believe it's a red small book......for free offcourse

I like restaurant "red snapper" in chaweng beach road

Choeng Mon beach is my favourite, near Big Buddha, great beach, loads of really good restaurants, excellent sea food.

Shoudn't be a problem, I bring heaps of delicacies back with me from OZ.If I come through Bangkok I usually declare them,if you flying straight through on CIQ they wouldn't even ask here.

Interesting how opinions differ. I tried Big John Sea Food, and was not impressed. Okay, nice location, nice views. Had a guided tour, nice rooms, but the food was terrible! Okay, I only visited once, however, we do make up our minds on one visit! The food was terribly overcooked and thus tasteless. I had Barricuda, one of my favorites, and although a nice large piece, it was like a piece of cardboard. What a shame, as most sea food is better lightly cooked.

Sorry for the negative post, but this was my impression, oh, and also of my wife who visited with me!

Poppies restaurant - Chaweng - by far the best food/ service/ ambience

Who is running the best value flights from BKK, maybe a midweek excursion might be in order. These posts have certainly re-kindled my interest.

Better than visiting family in Suratthani
