tampasailor Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 I met Pascal and his Thai wife Kitty and have been to the pub several times. Pascal is from Swizerland and speaks several langages as you can imagine. The have hired some of the old staff back and are whipping things into shape. The have a Carving Buffet on Saturdays for 395 bt. They are hoping that Farangs and locals will come back and they are anxious to cater to meetings etc for clubs etc and to become involved in the community. They are a very nice couple and I urge you to drop by and meet them! If you feel you are too skinny, try their breakfast set!! Parking is 60b at the hotel behind if the street parking is filled up. They are trying to make some arrangement with the hotel to make things even easier! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last most of us heard was that an Australian had bought it from an Englishman who was not entitled to sell it. The latter then fled to Cambodia. So has the Swiss bought it from the Australian? And do the former English shareholders in Pattaya know anything about this? Not stirring things up, just making an inquiry and sounding a small warning bell. Don't want any of my modest booze budget to fall into the wrong hands.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that the English ex-partner in Pattaya is aware of the change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kash Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 it wouldn't be the Riverside Pascal you guys are talking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tampasailor Posted December 4, 2008 Author Share Posted December 4, 2008 it wouldn't be the Riverside Pascal you guys are talking about? Don't know about Riverside Pascal but I have enjoyed dinners at Riverside for many years. This Pascal is Asian Swiss and of Korean origin I think. His wife Kitty is a Sweety and they have a baby boy. The place is quiet which I appreciate for meeting with friends and the food is good and reasonable. There are some tables on the street for when the weather is warm. I had been in the pub a few years ago but dont remember much. I don't know anything about its past but it is quite nice now. When my gf comes up from bkk weekends Kitty always has a rose on the table and candle. Special request of course but quick to please with an understanding smile. I am at the Grand apartments just around the cornor and looking for a heater if anyone has ideas...burrrrr! Maybe a heading pad is more practical? Headed up to Chaing Rai last week but half froze in the mountains on my motorbike so overnighted at the hot springs and came back to cm the next day brrrrrrr! Off to bkk on the 12th for the rest of the year. I hope I can fly on the 12th Love to meet fellow Canadians! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
