Pete/Jimmy et all, do they have any non fish dishes available? Wifey and daughter love fish/seafood, but I am allergic and so have to avoid fish if possible. Would be happy to make do with Chicken fried rice and have a beer while the family get their fill, but have been to several "fish restaurants" in Thailand where they offer absolutely no alternative, so am worried about making a wasted trip.

No problem mate. Just tell your Mrs to talk to the boss lady and tell her what you want. It's a nice air conditioned restaurant and nice people who run it. Not expensive either.

Excellent lunch with Jimmy and his good wife, we both really enjoyed so much.
You are so correct Jimmy, having this on our doorstep is heaven sent, certainly the best fried rice in Udon for my taste, along with very fresh seafood cooked to perfection.

As Jimmy has stated, you will not have any problem here, I think you will be very happy with the food, enjoy.

Depending on your Sensitivity / Allergy , do you need to remind them to clean the woks etc???

Or you just add your Epipen to the table setting , next to your Anti Histamine tabs

by not eating fish (as advised by my doctor years ago in UK) I rarely have a problem, and up until now have managed to avoid the need for drugs although occasionally I do get a minor rash which I usually put down to fish oil/fish sauce in cooking. Must admit that I'd love a nice bit of smoked haddock with lashings of butter melted over it from time to time :lol: Use to have a joke with Andy (City Lodge) who used to cook me fish and chips once a year as a treat :-$

Went for a feed yesterday as we were on NK road shopping. Good food and well served by Kuhn Noi and her pleasant staff.
Nice cold beer. Certainly worth while dropping in.
The 10% UM discount now kicks in when you reach a 1000 bht bin.
Stattointhailand Kuhn Noi said they do cater for non fish or seafood diets. Chicken and Pork on the menu.

as we have visit and went to nongkhai , we also stopped there to eat something , first impression
nice inviting advertising you can not miss , inside big cool room , when a lot of people it will be noisy (high ceilings) , when using glass covered tables , they should have been cleaned better ( stripeless) , outside they did have some live tanks but not so much in it maybe due to it being a week day ?...
so we ordered a menu from 899 and a separate fish plate which was 229 baht...
the menu items were these ..
IMG_25601106_133544 (Copy).jpg
kaaw pad poe , fired rice with crab , was good 8/10
IMG_25601106_134501 (Copy).jpg
khai tiow , was very oily en not tasty at all , 4/10
IMG_25601106_134941 (Copy).jpg
kaeng som , i do not like but was ok according to the others ,7/10
IMG_25601106_134740 (Copy).jpg
plaa kaphong rath pic , is normally deep fried fish , in this case not enough deep fried , with a nam chim sauce out of a bottle? with added vegetable, as we are used to eating this one with fresh sauce,the fish tasted bland , no herbs what so ever ..4/10
IMG_25601106_133928 (Copy).jpg
pamuk phad khai khem , best dish of the menu ...8/10
IMG_25601106_135115 (Copy).jpg
plaanin saam roth ,(extra order ) bland tasting also ,with same bottle nam chim sauce as other fish but no vegetables added..5/10
total bill including 1 chang/2 waters ,and extra plate of rice ..1.263 baht ...
so average meal score 6/10 ...
service was ok , after all dishes were on the table they seemed to not bother much any more , had to refill my chang myself ...7/10
to me i do not care much about service or interior decoration when the food is good (a cold beer i can drink anywhere ), so after reading most positive posts here it was a disappointment to us ..

Has anyone been to this restaurant recently.
Just checked the advert on Udon Map & it directs you to their Facebook page which shows it has moved to a new location near the Airport.

I am reliably informed that the restaurant has indeed moved nearer to Udon.
The easiest way to describe where it is now is at the Nakhaburi Hotel and Resort.
I believe that it is actually on the same grounds as the resort.

Coming from Udon it's just after Nakha Buri resort. When you see Nakha Buri don't blink or you will miss it. I don't think it's open yet. It's also an open building not like the previous place so it will be hot inside.

Ok. I pass it every day and have never seen anyone inside. I liked the previous place but don't fancy sitting in the heat at the new location. I hope it work for them.

My wife and I ate at their new premises for the first time yesterday, the food and service was excellent as their previous premises, they had plenty of fans going so was pretty cool. A nice touch is they have a little prawn fishing pond in the middle of the restaurant, they supply little rods and seating all around, great fun for the kids and possibly adults.
The only thing I would say is have some mosiquito spray due to its outside location, saying that we did not get bitten.
I wish them every success in their new location.

That seems a very weird post from an Administrator on UM considering all the previous posts, looks like the left hand doesn’t know what the right hand is doing IMHO, my wife and I actually ate there again this evening, food, ambience and staff all as usual great, perhaps UM were looking for a new subscription?.
