### Suan Isan
- Route role: Surat City / Overnight Buffer
- Traveler fit: Use as route-support restaurant only after address confirmation.
- Why it matters: Useful as a simple city food candidate for travelers sleeping before/after ferry.
- Caveat: Avoid making it the main city food anchor without review validation.
- Confidence: Medium

### San Chao Market / night food zone
- Route role: City Layover / Ferry Buffer
- Traveler fit: Use as city-layover food zone.

- Confidence: Medium

### Don Sak pier food candidates
- Route role: Gulf Island Ferry Route
- Traveler fit: Use in ferry-check widget.
