If you visit Koh Kret, you'll come across a unique type of ancient Thai herbal tea known for its amazing health benefits. It’s called ‘Rang Daeng Herbal Tea.’

This unique tea is made from the leaves of the Rang Daeng plant, scientifically known as 'Ventilago denticulata Willd.' On Koh Kret, the original Rang Daeng Herbal Tea comes from the well-recognized 'Wanpen Rang Daeng Herbal Tea' brand, made famous by Mrs. Wanpen herself. If you've ever visited this beautiful island, you've probably seen a lot of people carrying packs of this tea back home.

Mrs. Wanpen didn’t just create Rang Daeng Herbal Tea; she made it a one-of-a-kind OTOP product of Nonthaburi. Her tea is 100% natural and chemical-free, with several incredible health benefits. Rang Daeng Herbal Tea helps break down fat, lower cholesterol and blood sugar, reduce blood pressure, promote healthy urination, and even treat tuberculosis. It’s also a fantastic choice for anyone wanting to lose weight.

If you’re a tea lover who values your health, you definitely don’t want to miss out on Rang Daeng Herbal Tea. It’s the perfect brew for you!

Ready to chill in style at Koh Kret? When you arrive, there’s one must-try dish everyone’s raving about – ‘Khao Chae’!

This refreshing dish has roots deep in Mon culture, originally part of their Songkran celebrations, and was later perfected in Siam’s royal kitchens during King Rama IV's reign. Today, Koh Kret keeps that tradition alive by preparing Khao Chae the authentic Mon way.

Imagine a plate of delicate jasmine-scented rice soaked in icy water, paired with an assortment of mouth-watering side dishes like shrimp-paste balls, stir-fried sweet pickled turnips with eggs, stuffed peppers, and tender shredded sweetened pork.

If you visit Koh Kret and skip Khao Chae, did you really visit at all? Don't miss out on this iconic dish that not only cools you down but also serves a taste of rich history and tradition!

Have you heard of 'Tod Mun Nor Kala'?
This is a must-try menu when you visit Koh Kret!

'Tod Mun Nor Kala' is a delightful fish cake infused with 'Nor Kala,' a zesty plant from the galangal family. While it may resemble its larger cousin, both the leaves and stem of Nor Kala pack a punch of flavor that takes this locally beloved delicacy to the next level.

Imagine your classic Tod Mun, but with a delicious twist. This sensational treat combines crispy Nor Kala – tasting like young coconut shoots – blended into the savory fish meat, resulting in a flavor explosion that’s simply irresistible. Topped with crispy fried basil leaves and drizzled with a sweet and spicy sauce, it's a taste sensation that will leave your taste buds dancing.

If you haven't tried this local delicacy, did you even visit Koh Kret? Make sure to add it to your foodie bucket list!
