Anego is one of the oldest Japanese restaurant in Nakhon Ratchasima. They actually have 3 branches: Sriracha, Pattaya and Korat. They are located at Chao Phraya hotel in Korat, on Jomsurang road, not far from Klang Plaza 2.
They probably have the most expensive sashimi in Korat but also the most delicious. This fabulous plate is 1,000 baht and was NOT the most expensive on their menu:

Their sushi bar is one of the best in Korat. But if you are looking for “quantity”, I would recommend the “a la carte buffet” of “Kuroda” for about 450 baht. A really good value price.

You can reach Korat by bus from Bangkok’s Mo Chit terminal (about 3.5 hours), by train from Hua Lamphong station, or by minivan from Chatuchak. Tuk-tuks and songthaews (shared trucks) are the most common local transport within the city.
About Isaan Cuisine
The Isaan region of northeastern Thailand has its own distinct culinary tradition, influenced by Lao and Khmer cultures. Signature dishes include som tam (spicy papaya salad), larb (spiced minced meat salad), sticky rice (khao niao), and grilled chicken (gai yang). Food in Isaan tends to be spicier and more sour than central Thai food, using ingredients like padaek (fermented fish sauce) and fresh herbs.
