Options for Japanese fine dining on the island are limited, but Nama at the exquisite Amanpuri resort checks all of the boxes. Nama, which means “raw” in Japanese” (it’s also “Aman” jumbled up), introduces the culinary philosophy of washoku to Phuket. This traditional Japanese concept emphasizes the simplicity that’s intrinsic in Japanese aesthetics as a gateway to a kaleidoscope of flavors. Under the guidance of a Japanese chef, the kitchen creates amazing seafood dishes made with produce flown directly from Japanese markets, as well as carefully selected local ingredients.
