One of the beloved restaurants in Phitsanulok is To Ped Toon, located along Thammabucha Road (before reaching Wat Thammachak) in Nai Mueang Subdistrict, Mueang District. The restaurant specializes in stewed duck and braised duck with excellent flavors. It has been serving delicious meals for over 18 years, welcoming customers from early morning.
Atchara Buangam (Pee Aoi), 49, the owner of To Ped Toon, revealed the secret to their deliciousness: "We select extra-large ducks, sizes XL to XXL, weighing 2.8 to 3.2 kilograms each, to ensure generous portions of meat. Then, we stew the ducks with Chinese herbal spices for about an hour and a half over medium heat. This secret recipe makes the duck meat tender, not tough, and infuses the perfect aroma and flavor from the Chinese herbs."
Popular dishes that customers keep ordering include duck rice, stewed duck egg noodles, boiled duck intestines served with dipping sauce, and braised pork leg rice. Prices start at just 50 baht per dish. This unique deliciousness combined with affordable prices has led the restaurant to sell up to 400 plates a day.
For those interested, To Ped Toon is located along Thammabucha Road, before Wat Thammachak, Nai Mueang Subdistrict, Mueang District, Phitsanulok. The restaurant is open daily from 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM, except Wednesdays when it is closed.
