White Christmas13 Posted March 2, 2019 Author Share Posted March 2, 2019 1 hour ago, Spidey said: Well, living in Pattaya and eating out several times a week, I was going to point you towards a few decent Western restaurants in Pattaya. However, after that inane comment, you can get stuffed! BTW. Chinese and Indian restaurants are neither Western nor European. The Chinese and Indian restaurants in Pattaya, (esp. Indian) are uniformly dreadful, despite what Jingthing might tell you. The latter guaranteed to give you Dheli Belly. Happy holiday. I never said Indian or Chinese is Western food I only mentioned that is the food I enjoy and don't be upset about Fish and Chips I love that too but I was talking about real cooked meals what you cook in any countries I am not British and I still love mushy peas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should source good quality fish, create a tasty and light batter, hand cut the chips and perhaps parboil and double fry them. You should stop digging. You are beginning to make a fool of yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

55Jay Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 I like to hit the Wednesday or Saturday International buffet at Cherry's in Pattaya. http://www.cherrys-restaurant-pattaya.com/ If you find yourself over the hill in Jomtien, check out Rich Man Poor Man for breakfast, or anytime really. https://www.facebook.com/Richman-Poorman-Guesthouse-1507499469486571/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well past it's sell by date. Surly staff. Hidden card charges and rules made up on the spot and the food reminiscent of school dinners. I keep giving it another try and it's always the same. Poor. They think they are a lot better than they actually are. Gourmet, my posterior. It's not in any sense of the word a gourmet restaurant. They should have long been disabused of that notion. Just standard fare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Australia they overcook the fish for fear of getting food poisoning and in New Zealand, you need to look far and wide for a place that doesn't utilise frozen chips. In fact many are proud to advertise that they use McCains Oven Chips. So perhaps I can understand from where you are coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, once a year or every other year in Pattaya, it's fine for the buffet, not emotional about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brokenbone Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 have to agree with wc, any dish that is served with ketchup & mayo is junk food, slightly ahead of mcdonalds on par with kfc & burger king Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a guy who seems to consider himself some type of food expert in Pattaya do you have any suggestions for the OP other then falsely attacking others who are actually making an effort to help him?.... Yeah, right, I really don't make any suggestions on this forum as to where to eat. None at all. Thanks for that. I'll go flog myself with a wet ramen noodle.

Last time I went I was the only Farang in the place. Was there about 2 or 3 Saturday's ago. Pretty busy and 70% foreigners who were not Chinese....... Food to me was about the same standard as it has been for the last 3/4 years. The roast lamb that day was however excellent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seasia Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Hi I will try. French - La Petite Planete, soi Day Night near Tukcom. Reasonable prices, 3 course set menu 380 baht. Portions slightly on the small side but v/good quality IMO. Drinks prices pocket wallet friendly. Can also order a la carte if you wish, still works out a good value proposition https://www.facebook.com/pages/La-Petite-Planete-Restaurant/319590311388496 Italian - Grottino soi 33 naklua, near the Doplhin roundabout. Extensive menu, indoor air con section , and some seats & tables outside, Sample prices. Tagliatelle 200 baht, spaghetti 240 baht, lasagne 280 baht. Pizzas, large choice, from 200 baht basic to 380/400. Drinks prices maybe a touch above average, not bad though. Excellent food, excellent service. https://www.facebook.com/Grottino-Restaurant-Pizzeria-533421586792058/ Greek/Mediterranean El Greco, somewhat hard to find. Very modest pricing, also there is an option to order half size on several of the mains ( handy if you want to try a small selection) Greek chef/owner couple, nice people. Service good, prices very fair, including drinks. http://www.elgreco-pattaya.com/ Hope that helps a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you just want reasonably priced decent Non-Thai food Pattaya has loads of places. The real high end leaves a little to be desired and Bangkok is the better option here if that is what you are looking for. I enjoy the seafood in Pattaya. Always good. Mostly Thai.
