Within easy reach of several of Singburi’s attractions, Osaka Yakiniku is a modern and trendy sushi restaurant with plenty of Japanese appeal. The chef worked in Japan in the past, and has brought his culinary knowledge back to Central Thailand. Ingredients are fresh and the food is full of taste. Many visitors highly rate the raw salmon, though there are many more options to choose from too.

Although not a dedicated seafood restaurant, several of the stalls at the ground-floor food court in Chaisaeng Department Store sell delicious fish and seafood meals. Prices are cheap; but do be sure to pre-load money onto a payment card at the cashier kiosk before ordering your meal(s) as most sellers cannot accept cash. Two stalls in particular stand out for their seafood options; one specialises in a mean oyster omelette and the other sells spicy papaya salad, complete with prawn, crab, or other ingredients of your choosing.

7. Mae La Pla Phao
