There's an excellent dessert section near the food court which shouldn't be missed, selling all sorts of traditional Thai sweets. In particular, the khanom krok coconut milk and rice flour treats are in credibly fresh, gooey, and ever so tasty. If the food tables get too packed, which they tend to if you come here during lunch hour midweek, you can also go just outside the back of the market, where there are several sit down places to grab a bite. At Cafe Boran Hat Yai, there are traditional Thai Chinese southern dishes at dirt cheap prices, just like a real Hat Yai cafe with dim sum, authentic cafe Boran (Thai "ancient" coffee with plenty of condensed milk), and the best version of Malaysian "swimming Rama" pork satay in peanut, chili, and coconut gravy that you will find anywhere in Thailand
