There is a stall on Soi Metro almost at the junction with Soi Buckaow, which sells fish, chips, chicken nuggets and their potato scallops are great, it is run by a mother and beautiful daughter, I go there every time I am in Pattaya, give it a try. Pretty sure I have seen the one you mean. I just like to sit and eat indoors, not out on the street sweating and being pestered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had 3 days visiting a pal on the dark side . Went to Nickys and had the haddock , potato wedges , garden peas , 2 thick bread and butter . Top class for me and was full up and left 1 bread . My lady has her own restaurant up north east and she asks me to take a picture of food when I eat in other restaurants for her to make comparisons , so below is the pic from Nickys . BTW the place is clean , air con, Sky TV news , good waitress service . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barra at 30 bucks a kilo makes for expensive fish and chips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( The topic as as dry as my wife's pool. Kidding intended)-) That's what happens high end restaurants when you make a fool of the waitress over the wine list. I'm surprised he gets served at all.

I hate this crap as it smells like semen (ahum) and is <deleted> watery. If you can get hold of more expensive Panga, that would be a better choice. You obviously have a lot more experience than me in the smell area so I'll defer to your greater knowledge. But really, waaaay to much information. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rubbish slimey John Dory fish and bone dry frozen chips, empty vinegar bottles and unclean sauce bottles. Was my last experience there April 2019.

The scallops, or specials as I know them, are delish and highly addictive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their daily specials are the tastiest value for money dishes in town IMO Sometimes there is the option of Fish Pie on a Friday, which if you see on the menu (or ask them) try it, as its delicious.
