Camin Cuisine & Cafe Kaset-Nawamin ขมิ้น คูซีน แอนด์ คาเฟ่ เกษตร-นวมินทร์

Camin (Khamin, Thai for turmeric) is a southern Thai restaurant and café in a shaded garden at the mouth of Soi Prasert-Manukit 2, also signed as Phahon Yothin 34, at the western end of the Kaset-Nawamin road. Reviewers describe tall trees, a small stream with goldfish and an air-conditioned glass dining room. The kitchen and the café are in separate buildings on the same plot, and you can order from both at one table. The kitchen runs 10:00 to 21:30; the café opens at 08:00.

Wongnai's band is 501 to 1,000 baht a head, though some reviewers spent 251 to 500. A few think portions are small for the price, and service slows when the room is full. There is parking beside the road, and a reviewer advises booking on weekends. BTS Sena Nikhom is about a 15-minute walk. Google rates it 4.4 from around 1,870 reviews.
