Putahracsa Hua Hin has a well-deserved reputation as the most chic and sophisticated resort in Hua Hin. Design-led and exhibiting an extraordinary level of attention to detail, Putahracsa is a unique contemporary Thai property that continues to evolve. The latest creation to further enhance the guest experience is Nahb Talay, a trendy hangout that changes its character throughout the day.
Located on Nahb Kaehat Road, just a short distance from the main resort, Nahb Talay provides an engaging space with a lofty ceiling, low tables and comfortable sofas, seductive lighting and warm friendly service. In the morning, it is the perfect place to enjoy a cappuccino or espresso with a pastry while taking advantage of free wi-fi access. A good collection of magazines and a carefully chosen selection of laidback sounds make this Hua Hin’s ultimate chill out zone. The availability of Movenpick ice cream adds to the level of pure indulgence that can be achieved here. By day, Nahb Talay is an excellent place for quiet contemplation or an impromptu meeting with friends.
As evening falls the beautifully lit restaurant becomes the haunt of discerning diners. The theme is refreshingly simple, (yet for some reason incredibly hard to find elsewhere). Food is uncomplicated, delicious and excellent value. With many dishes designed for sharing, the venue is a great spot to while away the hours over an array of tasty treats and a bottle of good wine. Start off
with a crisp Sauvignon Blanc and some great finger food like the Calamari with a spicy lime-cilantro dip, Crab cakes with pineapple salsa, Home style thick cut onion rings, and Barbecued pork ribs with hot sesame sauce. For a taste of local flavours try the deep fried river prawns in a tamarind sauce. Pasta
dishes include a choice of spaghetti, penne or tagliatelle. The chef’s beautifully creamy Carbonara is comfort food at its best while the Thai-style stir-fried spaghetti with seafood and basil adds a little spice to the evening.
On Friday and Saturday night the food Nahb Talay is complimented by a DJ spinning retro sounds of the 70s and 80s from 9 p.m. until 1 a.m. With its regular crowd of Bangkok weekenders and locals alike, the venue is fast becoming the town’s most popular hangout for those seeking something fresh and exciting.
Nahb Talay’s carefully honed concept is a welcome and much needed addition to the Hua Hin dining scene. Chic yet unpretentious and with superb selection of well-priced delicious cuisine, it rates as Big Chillis favourite spot to wine and dine.
Nahb Talay is open from 10a.m. until late.
