If you are looking for a seafood restaurant that is "authentic, flavorful, and generous" at a reasonable price, not as expensive as famous restaurants in tourist areas like Hua Hin, we recommend trying "Thap Kae 2". This restaurant may not focus on luxurious atmosphere, but the highlight is the taste and ingredients that are generously provided, especially the fresh seafood menu that seems to bring the sea into the kitchen.
The highlight menu that you must order is "Spicy Seafood Soup", which is served in a huge bowl. The soup has a unique identity, which is thick and smooth. The taste is mellow, not as spicy as pepper, but you will get a warm flash from herbs like "ginger", which helps to eliminate the fishy smell of seafood very well. The bowl is packed with various kinds of vegetables, including mushrooms, pumpkin, zucchini, carrots, and lotus stalks, along with an army of squid and fresh shrimp that jump into the pot to the fullest.
Another great dish for crab lovers is "Crab Stir-fried with Spring Onions". This dish can be said that the crab meat is "extremely abundant". Wherever you scoop, you will find only white crab meat. The seafood aroma is clearly noticeable. The taste is sweet. Anyone who likes to eat with mellow sweet and salty rice will definitely like it. When comparing the quantity, quality and price with similar restaurants in the Hua Hin zone, you have to give a thumbs up that Thap Kae 2 is more worthwhile and affordable.
