📌 Sampaonava, U Thong Rd., Pratuchai Subdistrict, Mueang District, Ayutthaya Province

An old Thai & Western restaurant located on the riverside with a view of the prang of Wat Phutthaisawan. The shop is beautifully decorated and eye-catching, looking classic like an old aristocrat for welcoming guests, combining Eastern and Western influences.

The food is delicious and very hard to find, such as Gaeng Ranjuan, an old royal dish that I have seen from a Thai drama from the past. I just tried it for the first time. It is similar to Tom Som mixed with Gaeng Som, with the smell of shrimp paste, basil and many spices mixed together. It is very delicious. Khao Mak with shrimp fat is delicious. The taste is well-rounded and the smell of shrimp fat is fragrant. Grilled pork tongue with a unique dipping sauce, similar to salted egg yolk (not cooked). It is creamy and eaten with Jaew sauce. It has a variety of textures and is delicious. River shrimp with juicy shrimp fat with 3 dipping sauces, sweet/sour and fragrant from shrimp fat.

Anyone who comes to eat at this restaurant will definitely come back again because the food is really delicious and unique. The atmosphere is diverse. During the day, in the evening until night, there are different moods.
