Malina's Kitchen
Family-run roadside eatery on Long Beach, famous for its massaman curry and consistently ranked among the island's top spots.
Malina's Kitchen is run by husband and wife Dan and Malina and sits on the main road through Long Beach (Phra Ae), not on the beach. The shop is small and often busy, so it's best to book by sending a message on Facebook. When it's full, guests are taken free of charge by shuttle to the couple's second restaurant up the hill. The massaman curry is the signature, and many long-term visitors to the island call it the best they've eaten. The menu also features panang curry, cashew-nut stir-fried Spanish mackerel with pineapple, and tempura prawns. Spice levels can be adjusted, and vegetarian dishes are made without fish sauce or egg. About 200–400 baht per person.
