Baan U-Thong

The restaurant is located next to the river, which gives it a nice river view. Guests can choose to sit next to the river on a wooden deck inside the cooler restaurant. Like other restaurants in Ayutthaya, Baan U-Thong serves the local speciality king river prawns. These enormous prawns are a real delicacy and when visiting Ayutthaya, we would highly recommend you to try them. The prawns are sold per piece, based on market price, but normally you would pay around 400 THB per prawn. The more you order, the less you pay per prawn.

Other highly recommended dishes are the Deep-Fried Prawns with Crispy Beetle Leaves and Spicy Salad (150 THB) - which is insanely herby - and the Deep-Fried Common Sheet Fish topped with Curry (350 THB). If you are in an adventurous mood, check out the Boiled Snail with Bamboo Beatle Leaves in Red Curry (120 THB). There is also a vegetarian version available for this heavenly red curry.
