My boyfriend and I tried the White Orchid restaurant because it had been so highly recommended on Trip Advisor. This definitely paid off. We spent 9 days at the Aquamarine Resort just next door to it. Having been sick with food poisoning in Thailand a few times before, I'm pretty fussy about where I eat. We ate here nearly every...

On a lazy Wednesday afternoon in Kamal Beach, my three friends and I wandered down to a local beach cafe for a beer and what we had heard were the best spring rolls in Thailand. What we ended up with was definately the best spring rolls I have eaten (and trust me - I have had a few) and very... More

Do not agree with the last comments posted by the people for the US. My friends and i have just finished our cooking class with Angela and could not be more impressed. We were greeted with the warmest of welcomes and her hospitality is amazing. We cooked an array of Thai dishes from curries to deep fried fish and stir... More

My husband and I first met Angela when we came to Kamala for a wedding a couple of years ago. We were so impressed with her service and food that we had to come back whilst on our honeymoon! We stayed at Cape Sienna, so White Orchid is only a couple of minutes walk or motor bike ride down the... More

I was very disappointed in this restaurant especially after all of the great reviews I have read and heard. First of all, it was a pain to get to as no taxi drivers seemed to know where it was. I had seen a sign so was able to sort of direct someone there, ultimately, it wasn't worth the trouble or... More

First, the good news - the spring rolls were pretty tasty. I can't confirm whether or not the truly are "the best in the world" as White Orchid claims, but the spring rolls were enjoyable. Sadly, they were the only good part of my meal. The bad news - this was the worst pad Thai I've had in Phuket. In... More

Went past this restaurant and the bunting promoting its spring rolls and we were not disappointed at all. The location which was right on the sand where the sea is was also a big plus due to the freshness of the sea breeze and dinning under the moonlight.

I had the most wonderful experience today on a course at White Orchid with the brilliant and beautiful owner. She taught me to make her renowned spring rolls and a magnificently tasty vegetarian curry. Angela is the perfect host - you most go here. Evening with a dozen friends too overlooking the sunset. Could not think of a better way... More
