FLIGHT OF THE SWORDFISH

One hundred meters from the airport departure terminal stands this collossus of carnivorous carnage. A temple of tastes. A behemoth of beauty. A shrine of sardines.

​I arrived here with three local friends intent on shattering molars with the amount of seafood we were ordering. Fresh fish, fish heads, squid eggs, vegetables, mushrooms, all ordered and instructions on how to prepare relayed to the kitchen.

Restaurant exterior with two men seated, motorbike parked. Pink awning, white building.

And thus we waited and twiddled thumbs, and annointed hands with holy water, and tapped feet to the inaudible hum of Sun Ra. And behold the feast arrived, and we ate, and we wept, and we stretched, and we coughed, and we spluttered and we hugged.

If in Langkawi, come here, or else.

KHAO SOI NIMMAN | CHIANG MAI

By Benjamin Sand • August 9, 2026
Khao Soi Nimman promises authentic Northern Thai flavors but delivers bland, uninspired dishes. The noodles are soggy, the curry lacks depth, and the overall experience feels rushed and careless. A disappointing stop for anyone craving genuine Chiang Mai comfort food.

SOMMER CANTEEN

Sommer Canteen by Jesper Gøtz is one of our favourite places in denmark to eat BMO. This charming spot by the sea, north of Copenhagen, is highly worth a daytrip.
