Location

There is also a specialty menu at this station that is recommended for those who pass by train. That is the "Kaeng khua hoi khom" (Thai: แกงคั่วหอยขม), a Thai curry with river snails over rice on a banana leaf container sold by hawkers with trays walking along platforms. It is regarded as the signature food of the locality. Because Phichai is a district surrounded by mountains and rivers, it is a place rich in food ingredients.
