One of the most well-known restaurants in Kenting, Warung Didi, has relocated to an alley off of the main street. Although it might be a little harder to find, the new location is well-worth the extra effort. With a larger seating area and more outdoor space for diners, Didi is still serving up favorites like Beef Curry, their Signature Fried Chicken, Gong Bao Chicken, and Vegetables with Coconut Juice.

Warung Didi is as popular as it is for two main reasons; apart from the public praise they get because of the delicious food, Didi, the owner, has a distinctive character and welcomes everyone into her restaurant. She usually sits right behind the reception desk, answering phone calls and taking time to chat with her patrons. Her personal touch adds a bit more personality to the place. The next time you're in Kenting, make sure to reserve a table at Didi's—otherwise it might be too crowded for you to find a seat. --Words and photos by Monica Lin, translated by Ann Lee
