Jingthing Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 Did they visit even one restaurant in Pattaya, pre-pandemic the most popular beach resort city in Asia, and now the tourism city of the future according to genius city planners? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No they didn't visit Pattaya. Which doesn't surprise me, as people don't visit Pattaya for gourmet food, and most don't go for the beach either. Bangkok is well known for gourmet food, and prior to the pandemic was neck and neck with London for many of the last few years as the top city destination. Pattaya doesn't have the genuine regional cuisine of other parts of Thailand either, for example Chiang Mai. Now if there was a Michelin guide for Full English Breakfast in Thailand, Pattaya may well get the top spot. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phetphet Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 (edited) Bib Gourmand? The boys in brown are gourmands? Wow! But seriously. I would like to try a few of those spots the next time I am in Bangkok. Edited December 9, 2021 by phetphet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't include Pattaya because it was intentional snub for reasons not related to food. Edited December 9, 2021 by Jingthing 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pattaya is possibly the most well known sex tourism destination in the world. Everyone knows that Jing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, Chiang Mai, Phuket & Phangnga on that circuit? NO! Only Bangkok is. But this guide offers some cover of Thailand. Pattaya has been a major destination in Thailand. There are definitely some restaurants in Pattaya at the level of some on the list of other places here. This was definitely a weak kneed ignorant snub based on the sex industry here as if Bangkok and Phuket don't have a sex industry. Perhaps Amsterdam is best known for coffee shops and whores in windows. But it also has some restaurants that would be in such a book covering Europe. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thailand in general is famous for its unique cuisine. Chiang Mai is famous for its genuine regional cuisine. Pattaya is famous for its sex tourism, in comparison to which Amsterdam is a genteel European city, which indeed it is - perhaps the best regulated sex industry in the world, and occupying a tiny fraction of the city. We both know the same canot be said for Pattaya's sex business. If you're looking for fish restaurants in that region of Thailand, Rayong provides a better option, without the non-stop sleaze. "Weak kneed ignorant snub"!? Nice 555 PS, there is no genuine regional food in Pattaya. Hasn't been since the GIs overran the place and turned it into a sex pit stop for Rest & Recreation.

Fish 'n' chips and bouncing boobs replace the truffle foams. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
