Phuket, Thailand
6 dishes to eat in Phuket, what is in them, and where they belong.
Phuket's own slow-braised pork belly in soy, garlic and black pepper — a Hokkien inheritance and the island's signature dish.
Thick yellow noodles fried with pork, seafood and egg in a dark stock. Distinctly Phuket, and different from Malaysian versions of the same name.
Griddled, folded flatbread, crisped in butter — the standard late-night snack on Muslim-run carts across the island.
Grilled fish, prawns and crab, usually sold by weight from an iced display you choose from directly.
A fried oyster and taro omelette with bean sprouts, a Phuket street speciality with a Hokkien lineage.
Thin, crisp-edged coconut pancakes cooked in a small round pan, sold in the morning markets.
