PHUKET: The Patong restaurant of the popular Two Chefs franchise in Phuket was completely gutted by fire in the early hours of this morning (Dec 30)

 

“The most important thing is that no one was hurt. Everyone is okay,” Adam Goodman, General Manager and co-founder of Two Chefs, told The Phuket News.

 

Asked what might have caused the fire, he said, “The fire broke out very early this morning. Police are still here investigating. At this stage it is still too early to tell.”

There are three restaurants in the chain. Although it was an attempt to be funny, it could mislead readers into thinking there was more than one fire and was an insurance job. It could be considered defamation.

The other premises could also suffer cancellations on NY eve.

I only asked for THE STEAK to be well done.

Tourist trap restaurant chain. The food is very average. 

It survives solely on tourists who can't stomach local food.

I agree. Plus over priced.  They tried 2 more budget restaurants = one Kata, one Karon. Both closed in a year or so.  I used to use both of them. Sad to see them close.

It certainly mislead me and I did actually think the above. I still fail to see any humour in the post by poster nev.

So, it's compulsory to eat Thai food every day?

 

Sorry pal, but after a few days of local stir fries and noodles a "very average" perfectly-cooked and nicely presented fillet steak makes a welcome change. OK?

Check their website. 

There's a message about the Patong fire , but it specifically states the other two are still operating.

I always thought the one in Kata was the first. 

I've never eaten there myself.

"interesting address, rat-u-thit road.".....

 

I'm sorry, I misread it. I thought it was rats-use-it road. It's pronounced the same way.

For a short time they had 5 restaurants. The 3 original in high profile locations. Then tried 2 more budget menu eateries in less busy locations. They closed.

In London, yes!

 

Here it's up to three hours if you can find enough to do to fill the time.
