About

Tamachart Restaurant in Phuket Town has got to be the most unusual, out-of-the-ordinary eatery this side of Phuket. It's been going for what seems like forever now and is a tremendously popular spot for expats and locals alike as well as being a welcome oddity for visitors.

The word 'tamachart' translates into English as 'natural' and many people in Phuket use the English word when discussing this unusually fitted out Thai-Chinese eating place.

The menu is Thai with some interesting dishes and even unusual drinks (try dragon fruit juice, it looks strange but tastes good) and the prices are acceptable.
