Chuthamas Grilled Meat, Pork Pan Address - Next to Nakhon Phanom Bus Station, Tambon Nai Mueang, Amphoe Mueang Nakhon Phanom, Nakhon Phanom Province You can park on the side of the road in front of the shop or in the parking lot of Nakhon Phanom Bus Station. Atmosphere/Location - Chuthamas Grilled Meat, Pork Pan is an old shop in Nakhon Phanom. It has been around for 23 years. The shop was originally located on the banks of the Mekong River in Nakhon Phanom City before moving to open next to Nakhon Phanom Bus Station. The shop has about 15-20 tables, with tables for 2-4 and 6-8 people. Inside the shop is a simple, comfortable, open-air shop with a breeze. You can order by the plate here. There are both pork, beef, offal, and vegetable sets. The taste of the meat is a special marinade recipe. It is a spicy Thai dish with herbs. There is no marinade mixed in. It is a bit dry, but very delicious. The pork belly is good. And the red beef smells very satisfying. The sauce here is a special recipe like no other. It is like soybean paste mixed with pickled ginger. The color is pink. Many people will find it strange when they first try it, but after that, they can't stop. There are also chilies and garlic. Another secret recipe here is the charcoal stove that is hot from the beginning until the last bite. The soup is well-rounded, not too bland or too salty. I recommend ordering several plates of meat just in case because there are a lot of people, it will not be continuous, lol. And come before 6 am, there is a queue. This shop also has a dipping style. Average price per person - Pork-beef set 200.- Add a plate 50.- per plate Pork, beef, liver, pork belly The shop opens every day from 18:00–20:00 Score - Food taste 9/10 Location 8/10 Atmosphere 8/10 #Nakhon Phanom #BBQ

#CafeReview The best cafe to sit at is Rostmary coffee & dessert cafe. Rostmary cafe is located in the blu hotel Nakhon Phanom. The view is very beautiful. The atmosphere is very chill with the rooftop view of the hotel, decorated in a minimalist style. Pastel tones are very controlled. The drinks and food are delicious and not expensive. I recommend pizza, sandwiches, spaghetti, cinnamon rolls, shochu pancakes, and many other menus. There are many beautiful photo spots. You can get every corner. #CafeReview

Phraya Sri Satta Nakarat, Nakhon Phanom 🙏 Phraya Sri Satta Nakarat Square is located on the banks of the Mekong River, opposite the Forest Resource Management Office, Mueang Nakhon Phanom District. It is another important place in the province that pig lovers should not miss. Anyone who comes must come to worship and ask for blessings from Phraya Sri Satta Nakarat, which was built from the belief in the Naga that looks after and protects people in the Mekong River basin and Phra That Phanom. Phraya Sri Satta Nakarat is a seven-headed Naga that faces and sprays water towards Laos. It is made entirely of brass. Under the base is a small room that shows the history of the creation of Phraya Sri Satta Nakarat. In addition to coming to worship and ask for blessings, the atmosphere around Phraya Sri Satta Nakarat is good air and a view of the Mekong River. You can see mountains and houses on the Lao PDR side. It is recommended to come in the evening when the weather is cool and comfortable. On Saturday and Sunday, take a walk along the Mekong River to the walking street, the clock tower, and see the architecture of old houses on the road along the Mekong River. It is not far to walk. 🌹There is a flower shop that provides services to tourists. 🛖There are shops displaying products 🚻Bathrooms are available 🚘Parking is available on the side of the road ⏰️No opening hours, you can enter at any time 🏷No entrance fee #Phaya Sri Satta Nakarat #Nakhon Phanom, a lovely city
