The Hit And Run Restaurant "review" Thread
Hey there local eaters. How about getting this ball rolling once again. My post today is very roughly about local SOUL FOOD restaurants. While all countries (hopefully) have foods that are soulful, of course I'm referring to black American cuisine which has roots in the deep south and even Africa. We've got two. One is closer to that label and the other is more modern and expansive. To start, Soul Bistro and Lounge in Pattaya. Soul Bistro Restaurant & Lounge, Pattaya City - Restaurant reviews I had a meal there consisting of jerk chicken (not soul food but I wanted it) and sides of candied yams and collard greens. Not surprisingly the jerk chicken wasn't really Jamaican but the flavor in the sauce was pleasant. The sides were the highlights especially the collard greens made probably with different greens than you would get in the U.S. and smoked turkey instead of the traditional ham hocks. The side portions were small but I did very much like the collard greens. To me, more exciting are the pair of restaurants called Qulture Lounge and Cafe on Jomtien 2nd road, near soi 14, Riviera Condo . QULTURE LOUNGE AND CAFE, Jomtien Beach - 29/1130 Moo 12 Nong Prue Bang Lamung Chonburi - Restaurant Reviews & Photos - Tripadvisor There are TWO of them, count 'em two. One on the left is a sophisticated (and expensive) dinner club kind of place, opening at 4 pm. I looked at the menu, and wow, incredible, but the prices are high as well (though I expect worth it). I arrive at 3 at that place not knowing the hours and was directed to the more casual cafe down the block on right. The cafe is open until 5 pm closed Sundays. This is more of a coffee shop with breakfast foods but there are also main courses that you could roughly classify as southern, soul food, etc. I was tempted by the shrimp and grits plate but at 700 baht I decided on some other options. The pancakes which might have been the best pancakes (220) I've ever had anywhere (included fresh fruit and whipped cream) and a side of two pieces of Southern Fried Chicken (160) (also excellent). Both places have stuffed french toast which is a dish I've never had but apparently regulars rave about. Yes it might sound weird but having some fried chicken paired with your waffles, pancakes, or french toast is definitely on theme with soul food. Even with just one visit, I wouldn't be surprised if this place serves some of the best breakfast foods in town (and I do recall even an English breakfast). I would love to go back there and sample the menu, including the expensive stuff. It's clear to me the cafe part is quite popular, both for coffee and food. -

Need to spend two days in Laos ay at chiang saen crossing
I was there for four hours today at the border on the Thai side and saw the people being refused entry for not having spent two days in Laos and being refused enter for not having a flight back home and seen them getting on the coach back to Laos . Those who paid extra for the visa came and went to Laos and straight back to Thailand within 30 minutes -
