Mama Daeng- Best deal for lunch
Today we found the best deal yet for lunch at Mama Daeng Cheap and Tasty Eats. We stopped for lunch on our way back from the Karon post office on Patak Rd, a little before turning back towards the ocean on Kata New Rd. George got chicken fried rice and I got sweet and sour
