althemighty Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 So I have my big village wedding on the 24th of december and the day after I will be in ubon with my wife and mother (Australian). Is there anything special to do for christmas in ubon. I'm not christian, but My family has traditionally celibrated with a traditional Australian seafood dinner in the past. Anyone to the question. Does anyone know any place in ubon that holds chrismas dinners or does any form of christmas celibration? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be spending chrismas with her and doing new years with my thai family in loas at 4000 islands. Trying to find a chrismas style dinner in ubon without much travel.

emiubon Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I guess your best bet, may be the italian Restaurant Spago, I dont know if he will have some special Christmas Dishes, but the food is quite good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirchai Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 (edited) How many real Christians actually live in Ubon? Beside the Mormons, 7th day Adventists, Jehovah's Witnesses and other useful BS. Did you know that Jesus was a Native American? Just go to the Italian restaurant Spago, pay him some money and he'll wear a Santa Claus uniform for you and your mom. Santa Claus will come to our school on the 25th,please page me if you'd like to meet him. ( Around 8.30 am, at the flag ceremony, also called national Anthem....) McDonald's will open on the 3rd of December, you could also go there and talk to Ronald. Edited November 24, 2012 by sirchai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaronSteve Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Is Spago's the only western food restaurant/bar in Ubon? Please say yes as I am looking to start another business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
althemighty Posted November 24, 2012 Author Share Posted November 24, 2012 I have no idea why people are excited about Mcdonalds. I would rather have thai food for chrismas than Italian or American. My family tradition is to have seafood for christmas. Mcdonalds fish burger is not going to help us create the feeling of christmas. Is there seafood join in ubon that preferably is doing somethign special for Xmas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeMock Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Karon Steve - no it isn't. Peppers, Wrong Way, TC Kitchen, Njoy, Risotto + a few more. allthemighty - You will not find anywhere in Ubon getting into the Christmas spirit that also serves seafood. Plenty of Thai run seafood joints but not Christmas celebrating ones. sirchai - There quite a lot of Christians living in Ubon and surrounds. When I ran Peppers I could to know quite a lot of them and most of them are still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeMock Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 On second thoughts, you might just get lucky at the Sunee Grand Hotel restaurant. They seem to get into Christmas a fair bit with decorations and music etc. They are not a seafood restaurant but do have a few fish/prawn/squid dishes or you could try Fuji right next door. All Japanese so a lot of sea inspired food. Here is a pic of my girls two years ago next to the massive tree they had set up outside. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bliib Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Check out Miyom Seafood located at the end of Phichitrangsan Road. They transport their own seafood up to Ubon twice a week, so it's very fresh (you can pick out the fish/prawns from the tank). Nit the owner is very friendly (although she doesn't speak any English). Oh', and try the crab curry - it's delicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
