bergen Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Went to Jomtien last week to pick up a friend. I had earlier been to C&C in Bkk and heard good things about the one in Phratamnak 4 rd. So we went there for lunch, and its a beautiful setting in a very nice garden overlooking the beach! There were not many guests at the time, but the waitress managed to serve our food to another table, which I will not complain about as it was discovered and repaired quickly. However we ordered 2 bottles of Singha/Heinecken which I specified had to be yen yen. When the beer arrived, both bottles were warm, and when I mentioned this to the waitress, she said she could bring us ice. We just finished our food and beer (paid) and left feeling disappointed. So what do you think???????? Isn't this a "upper quality" place that should provide ice cold beer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patklang Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I have found the place to be worse than the worst.Food ok,service crap and beer warm.Realy need a bomb up its arse and start again with fresh staff and management.Try to be high class but fail miserably except for the price.

chickenslegs Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I've been there many times and the beer as never been warm. Also, the service has always been great. Maybe just an isolated problem - which could happen anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnC Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 went there for the first time late december as a guest of a friend, party of four, three meals served, they forgot the fourth, one meal was undercooked whilst the salmon had not been boned, we ordered four sweets and got three. All complaints were met with indiference. My first and last vist to Cabbages & Condoms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I have heard many times to main reason to go there is the view, not the food, and that the food there is not nearly as good as their Bangkok location, which isn't exactly the best Thai food in Bangkok either.

pattaya_girl Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I have seen the advert at the side of the road many times, but i never knew it was a restaurent, i thought it was a shop selling Cabbages and stuff...lol.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melonf Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 I ordered a meal, but 5 minutes later they said they had run out. So I ordered a substitute...And guess what, the check bin included the unavailable dish. What I find really lets the restaurant down is the farang menu. There are relatively few items and some of those are spoiled by unappetizing combinations, roast lamb with mashed potato etc. A great place to impress about the Thai setting though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toptuan Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 (edited) So what do you think???????? Isn't this a "upper quality" place that should provide ice cold beer? Cold beer?

bergen Posted January 16, 2009 Author Share Posted January 16, 2009 So what do you think???????? Isn't this a "upper quality" place that should provide ice cold beer? Cold beer? Where do you think you are? Heidelberg? I'm used to many (most) restaurants in Isaan serving warm beer with ice. (which I don't drink since I like COLD beer) However in a touristy area in an "upper class" restaurant, I expect (and demand ) to be served cold beer.......................and if not .............I have no interest in going back for a second time!
