A Hidden Gem

Kop Kun is often described as a hidden gem in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. The restaurant is dedicated to serving authentic, homemade Thai food. If you want to experience real Thai flavours without leaving the island, Kop Kun is the place to go.

I went there myself recently and really enjoyed the whole dining experience. My favorite dish was the larb, which I highly recommend, but I enjoyed all the dishes. Sadly, I was too full for the mango sticky rice, so I chose the lighter coconut ice cream. I’m looking forward to trying their mango sticky rice next time!

I went last week and I will definitely be going back! I loved the tom kha, pad thai, and coconut-mango dessert.

Reservations are a Must

Due to its growing popularity and limited seating, it’s a good idea to make a reservation before visiting Kop Kun Thai Restaurant. The restaurant is always busy, and without a reservation, you might have to wait for a table.

The restaurant has two tables outside, but I recommend to make a reservation inside.

I’ve been there already three times since it opened three weeks ago. Do I have to say more?

    A least half of the appeal of Las Palmas for remote workers and digital nomads is rooted in this community. It’s the best I’ve seen so far in terms of how well it is organised, structured and nurtured. It offers excellent opportunities to meet new people and explore the island.
