O Tao Bang Niao

"O Tao" is a dish that even many frequent visitors to Thailand have never heard of. It is unique to Phuket. Imagine a mix of Oyster Omelette and stir-fried taro cubes. At O Tao Bang Niao, the dish is fried with garlic, pork rinds, and a secret spicy-sweet sauce until it becomes a sticky, savory delight. It is served with bean sprouts to cut the richness. This shop is a local favorite for a late-afternoon snack or dinner. If you want to try something you literally cannot get in Bangkok, this is it.
