You've never starved for eating choices on any of these islands.
Almost every single resort has a restaurant attached to it, and
the mixed menus of Thai and Western cuisine are usually pretty similar.
In fact, these resorts usually make more money off the restaurants
than the rooms. So expect to pay more than you
would on the mainland, but all in all, the prices are on a par with
other islands like Ko Samui and Ko Samet. For a change of diet;
try the Invito Italian Restaurant on Hat Sai Khao, which has a wood-fired
oven for making pizza. They also do deliveries within the area.
For delectable Indian dishes, try the first such restaurant on the
island, Spices of India, also on Hat Sai Khao. Another classy choice
is the Salakphet Seafood and Resort, which overlooks the bay of
the same name. Finally, if you'd like some hands-on practice at
cooking up Thai staples and delicacies, book a class at the cooking
school in the Blue Lagoon Khlong Phrao.
The island's nightlife is nowhere near as pulsating as it is on
Ko Chang's more developed cousins like Ko Samui and Phuket, but
it has picked up in recent years, mostly around the more popular
beach areas, while younger travellers prefer the revelry down on
Lonely Beach, or Hat Tha Nam. For live music, head over to Oodie's
Place on Hat Sai Khao. Ko Chang also has a lot of superb seafood
restaurants and a wide variety of eateries specialising in Western
and Thai dishes, too.
