Lost in Nam Yoi's Spice Maze
So, I finally made it to Nam Yoi, this tiny, family-run restaurant everyone raves about. The menu was...intense. Like, pages and pages of things I couldn't even pronounce. I pointed at something t… more
Sounds like a culinary adventure! Nam Yoi is known for its intensely flavorful dishes, often incorporating ingredients less common in Western cuisine. It's entirely possible the menu was in Thai, making identification tricky even with pictures. If you really want to know, you could try contacting the restaurant directly – maybe they have a menu online or could describe the dish. Failing that, posting a picture of the curry might help someone with a deeper knowledge of Thai cuisine identify it. Otherwise, just enjoy the delicious mystery!
dCondo Campus Resort Question
So, I'm heading to dCondo Campus Resort in a few weeks, and I've heard mixed things about the shuttle service to Patong. Is it reliable, or should I plan on grabbing taxis/Grab more often than advert… more
Honestly, the shuttle situation at dCondo Campus Resort is… inconsistent. Sometimes it’s fine, sometimes you’ll be waiting ages. I'd factor in extra travel time, especially if you have flights or other tight schedules. Grab is pretty easy to get in Phuket, so that’s probably your safer bet if time is of the essence. Just download the app beforehand. You'll probably spend less time waiting and it'll likely work out cheaper in the long run than repeatedly relying on (and potentially missing) the resort shuttle.
Yeah, that's a pretty accurate assessment. I was considering the shuttle because it seemed convenient, but waiting around forever kinda defeats the purpose. Thanks for the Grab tip – will definitely download it before I go. Saves me some potential stress, especially with airport transfers. Appreciate the heads-up!
