Phuket has long been called the Peranakan capital of Thailand. Sadly, there is a dearth of restaurants serving authentic Peranakan fare, a cuisine invented by the Straits Chinese who lived in merchant cities in the Malay Peninsula including Phuket, Malacca, Singapore and Penang. It’s the type of home-cooked cuisine Phuketians of old would eat within their walled rowhouses. The Charm Dining Gallery fills in the gap as one of the very few Peranakan restaurants in Phuket Town.
