6.HROY RESTAURANT 
This restaurant is easy to be seen along the road to Airport. This is a typical local thai restaurant as i never see any tourists visit except me.. Their menu is all in thai so you might need use some hand language or google translate. From the trip, their tomyum is my favourite so far. They are famous in their kheng som dish and they are selling in vacuum packaging. We get a chance to see the owner to show us how to cook the kheng som by using their kheng som instant packet. For those who love spicy food, you can try kheng som with the hard boiled egg as they taste really awesome.

If you travel to Hatyai City area, you can visit the Songkhla City Shrine, Street Art & Ban Nakorn  Nai Musuem.  These attraction is near to each other so you may plan it in one day trip. 

Just right in front of the shrine entrance , you can try the local dessert which is the coconut ice-cream with egg yolk. It taste really good and out of my expected. And only cost 30TBH.
