Tickle your tastebuds at Saphan Hin

PHUKET: More than 100 food stalls are cooking up delectable local delicacies for the 18th annual ‘Phuket Good Taste Food Festival’ at Saphan Hin until April 26.

“Food aficionados can tuck in to a fantastic range of culinary creations by the first generation of Phuket food vendors, who have been making mouth-watering dishes for more than 30 years,” said the club’s head, Wipada Teeranittayapap.

The week-long festival, organized by the Phuket Municipality, aims to celebrate the induction of Phuket as a ‘UNESCO City of Gastronomy’ (story here), as well as mark the 23rd anniversary of the Phuket Food Seller Club.

“We aim to promote and boost income for local food sellers, and also support local municipality tourism through Phuket’s unique cuisine,” said Phuket City Deputy Mayor Kosol Tang-Uthai.
