Moon has a great masaman Yellow Curry

We do a great Yellow curry at JWs also. The family that run our kitchen are from Chiang Mai and they seem to have a knack for curries.
The burgers are home made also and are great.

Massaman Curry is a South influence on the Thaï coocking.
Does not mean that the best is south made ...
But surely not in HH when compare to LOS.

Moon /Plato on Poonsuk rd does a great masaman

I had a few good ones there, but the best are still made in the south , had great masamans on Phi Phi 15 yrs ago, also in Krabi area...

Thank you for the link to the recipe page. On that page they also encourage one to enjoy "tart cherries".
I do confess having been quite intrigued about the tart cherries and more than slightly concerned
about possibly having missed something unique. It turned out, however, that they were discussing only food.

A bit of an anticlimax, I'd say.

Lots of places do a great Masaman in Hua Hin.

My favourite is Pan Din Tong just before you reach the flyover to go to Pranburi.

I'm pretty sure some of the chefs may have changed in the mentioned eateries 4 months go ( when the thread was started ) so maybe we will have new places on the list to try out

Could anyone please send me one of these "Southern" Masaman curries.

I do hope that people posting realise that this is most definately NOT a Thai dish.

Khun Oy restaurant in soi 94 does a cracker, big chunks of chicken and a thicker sauce - really good. There are many variations of masaman, some thick, runny, like em all to be honest!

Bamboo Grove, meet JW. Looks like your search for northern Thai food may have been solved. I'm sure they can do "off menu". Pete

The real massaman curry is cooked with beef chunks not chicken, cooked very slowly so the beef melts in your mouth. its influence comes from india, thats why it contains potatoes.

several muslim stalls around hua hin sell it, but nothing like homemade.

I thought spuds came from South America, probably on the same Portuguese boat that brought the chillies to Asia.

Obviously not the Hindu bit of india that should narrow it down a bit.

2 Thai wives 24 years and never has beef masaman passed my lips only chicken one of these days i will get it right.

you can just make the sauce, add extra peanuts make a great marrinade and sauce for satay.
