Day 4 in Koh Samui, we stayed at Lazy Days Samui Beach Resort, just down the beach from Lamai and only a 5 minute walk from Hin Ta Hin Ya, the Grandfather and Grandmother Rocks. After waking up and having breakfast, I had some work I needed to get done, so we sat in the room for a while and did some work until leaving at about 10 am to go to Hin Ta Hin Yai (หินตาหินยาย), which is one of the most famous landmarks and attractions in Koh Samui.
Since we were staying on the other side of Hin Ta Hin Yai (หินตาหินยาย) from the main entrance, we came kind of the back way, up the side of the beach and had to do a little rock climbing to the viewpoint. It was pretty obvious to see where Hin Ta Hin Yai (หินตาหินยาย), the Grandfather and Grandmother rocks were located. I thought Grandfather rock looked like it, but Grandmother rock was like any other rock in the world. Anyway, it’s one of the most famous viewpoints in Koh Samui, and it’s often included in all the tours of the island. I think it was worth a quick visit. After Hin Ta Hin Yai (หินตาหินยาย), we took a walk over to Lamai beach and walked along the ocean. I think the ocean at Lamai beach was better than at our hotel, which was just one rock beyond Lamai.
For lunch we headed over to Sabeinglae Restaurant (เสบียงเล), one of the most famous restaurants in Koh Samui for seafood and for Samui speciality dishes. It’s a nicer end restaurant, not a street food restaurant, but after yesterday’s bad meal, I was ready to eat a delicious meal. Most of the menu was in both Thai and English, but I noticed that there were a few items that were only listed in Thai – maybe they thought only Thais would enjoy them? Anyway, we ordered some of the speciality foods at Sabeinglae Restaurant (เสบียงเล). Wai khua (วายคั่ว), squid in coconut milk, which was not really a curry, but more of a just a thick coconut gravy, was one of my favorite dishes of our meal – the squid was so incredibly tender and the sauce was extremely buttery. Another special dish at is Sabeinglae Restaurant (เสบียงเล) moo khua koy (หมูคั่วเคย), pork stir fried with shrimp paste – krill shrimp paste. I didn’t care for it, it was way too sweet – it almost tasted like pork fried with applesauce. Finally, I just couldn’t resist ordering a red snapper steamed with lime juice, chilies and and garlic (ปลาแดงนึ่งมะนาว). The fish was fresh, and it was excellent.
Overall, the food at Sabeinglae Restaurant (เสบียงเล) was pretty good. I didn’t care for the pork dish, but the seafoods dishes were all quite good. It was a little expensive, but it was our splurge meal for our trip to Koh Samui. For dinner that night, we just had a simple meal at a restaurant down the road from our hotel.
Sabeinglae Restaurant (เสบียงเล) is located right next to Hin Ta Hin Yai in Koh Samui.

Their salt baked Mantis Prawn is great
The best food. I like it
Grandfather is hard! been eating too many goji berries and dates probably… and poppy seeds… and mushrooms … the cow poo mushrooms <3
To me, the best restaurant in Samui, I celebrated my 30th birthday and the servers went over the top to make me feel special! They sang happy birthday and brought a huge pile of pancakes with candles 🎂
I love the fact that we get to choose our own fish and crab for our dishes (evenings only I think), they do the best crab yellow curry on earth.
I was here because of this clip and advertisement of this guy. The food was bad and expensive. That's the reason why i will never watch his clips anymore.
Lol theres only 3 words I understand in the title.
Good
i think it's not squid, but baby octopus…
Hey Mark are you from Thailand? Cos the way you pronounce the names of all those food items, makes one feel that you are a Thai national…
Greetings from Singapore 🇸🇬
I love watch your videos. Especially when I’m working & I feel bored , the video takes me away for a brief time. I wish I could pick & travel !!!
good place very good food and video😋👍💯💖😍
mARK, have you ever done a review of Hat Yail and surrounds. I worked in the area and I loved the fresh seafood but also the little obscure places in Prachuap Kiri Khan. a most interesting boat building town. At least, it was 20 years ago.
Mommas and poppas stones lol
Been going to Lamai Beach for over 20 years. I could show Mark some amazing food!
Does ying speak English
Beautiful Place. Hope to find time and visit places in Thailand.
this guy talks too much. Who cares anyway.
I tried Sabeinglae Restaurant 3 months ago, it was amazing. The food me and my family ordered was the tamarind prawns, wai Kua (tastes like clam chowder but with octopus in it), papaya salad (it was alright), deep fried soft shell crabs, sea mushroom curry, and crab fried rice. Although the dishes were kind of expensive like Mark said on the description but it’s a nice place you got to try and not to miss when you visit Samui, it’s really good. I mostly recommend Wai Kua and the Sea Mushroom Curry. My favorite was those two.
Love all your work

You missed a great restaurant – Koh Kaew on the corner of the main road and the road down to Hin Ta Hin Ya. Not great decor or sea view, but gets a lot of repeat business because they make the best home cooked Thai food. We eat there at least 4 times a week during our winters in Samui.
That is brain coral not shells and rocks its beautiful
Hmmmm Mark dont like alot of salt or sweets, ??????
I find grandparent rock quite hilarious…
YUUUUMMMY GOOD DELICIOUS FISH I SAW MARK THANKS FOR SHARING
That's So Cool!! But i agree with you!
It’s always so crazy when you say your meal was expensive ($31😂). Here in the US that is average per PERSON lol
bECAUSE i'M SLIGHTLY HARD OF HEARING, I ACTIVATED THE SUB TITLES. THEY ARE GROTESQUE GIBBERISH. THEY HAVE LITTLE RELATION TO ENGLISH AND 'KANOM JEEN' (THE NOODLE DISH MARK HAD AT LUNCH) CAME OUT 'CANON JEAN' ! DOESN'T ANYONE EDIT THIS? AND DON'T POSTERS GET TO LOOK AT WHAT A MESS OF TRANSLATION THEIR VIDEOS ARE ILL-FATED ENOUGH TO RECEIVE?
31$ isnt expensive
Ha ha ha.. Too funny about the grandparent rocks!! <X D The grand father rock would make HILARIOUS post cards!! thumbs up
Those rocks were funny
แช่บๆๆ
I always enjoy your food clips but maybe in the near future can we see you enjoy some of the best soul food spots around I will enjoy the expression your face when you get a chance to taste some soul food .. ..😋😋
That whole fish 4:38 looked the Best. But ALL good.
