Thai Flavors In Saudi Arabia At Phuket Restaurant Al-Khobar


I always wanted to visit this restaurant because it's one of the most sought of by many Filipinos here in Al-Khobar. Located just one block from Al-Ramaniyah Mall,  Phuket Restaurant offers a mix of Thai dishes as well as Filipino Dishes to offer us a more southeast asian taste.


Here, you can order in sizes of your choice, small(1-2 persons), medium(3-4 persons), large(5-6 peesons).  Serving for three(3), we ordered the following:

Tamyam Pla - Shrimp Soup with a sour base

Pad Khee Mao Ruam - Stir-fried beef, chicken, shrimp and cuttle fish - a bit on the chilli side

Pad Thualan Tao - Stir-fried sweet peas with shrimp, chicken, and quail eggs.

Sweet And Sour Lapu-Lapu



Their Menu:









Food taste great although serving time was quite slow, maybe because of the number of customers that time.  Expect 15-20 mins, before your food is served.

It's another highly recommended restaurant especially for Filipinos.  Beside Phuket Restaurant is another similar restaurant named Bangkok Restaurant.  I wonder if it is owned by one person only? Well, it will definitely on my next to visit list.
