Zapponfai

Tried their marinated crab for the first time and wow, that garlicky mantis shrimp was next-level—super fresh and packed with flavor; just skip the chili if you’re sensitive to salt like me.

Recommended by a Thai local, Zapponfai offers amazing, homely food that's decently spicy. Even with a lower spice tolerance, the dishes are irresistible, with the stir fry crab meat with garlic and chili being the star of the show. The portion sizes are good, ensuring you leave fully satisfied. A solid 11/10 experience, it's a place you'll want to revisit.

Zapponfai lives up to its reputation with delicious seafood and pork neck dishes. The crab meat fried rice, fried pork neck, and grilled chicken are all highly recommended. The pork neck was so good that we ordered it twice. With a total bill of just 455 baht, it’s a place worth returning to for more culinary delights.

Nestled in a hidden lane, Zapponfai is a delightful find for anyone craving authentic Thai flavors. Their grilled pork neck is a standout, and the raw shrimps and crab in yellow curry are not to be missed. While the claypot vermicelli might not hit the mark, the overall experience is satisfying. The restaurant operates on a cash-only basis, and the menu could benefit from some streamlining. Despite minor hiccups, you'll leave with a happy tummy.
