Catfish Bookshop and Restaurant

A relaxed cafe and bookshop in Saladan where you enter through a small secondhand book exchange before reaching a wooden terrace right on the water. The menu leans vegetarian and vegan, with plenty of Thai and Western options. The brownie and Penang curry both get regular mentions. Books can be bought or swapped, making it a pleasant place to while away a few hours with good coffee and a view of the channel.
