Roti Chaofa, Roti Taew Nam and Aroon Po Chana (see the Muslim section) are Phuket’s best halal breakfasts. Order roti with chicken or beef curry and sweet tea.
Phuket’s signature: blue swimmer crab in a rich yellow coconut curry, poured over fresh rice noodles. Pair it with grilled fish and finish with mango sticky rice.
Muslim traveller note: outside certified halal kitchens, Phuket food often includes pork, pork fat or oyster and fish sauces of mixed origin. Seafood restaurants are the easiest choice; say “mai sai mu” (no pork) and ask about the stock.
