Pla Sawan Restaurant, New Resto On Pattaya-Jomtien Road

[Jingthing]

This new Thai restaurant looks kinda cute. Anyone tried it yet?

[TOQ]

That is a long road, can you narrow it down a bit

[TheWalkingMan]

Dang JT, you seem to see/go to all the restaurants around town.

I checked out that Brew & something place on Soi Excyte a couple of weeks back or so and it was pretty good. There was a chap there wearing white calf length socks and I thought... "Hmmm, I wonder if that is the restaurant connoisseur JT."

Anyway, thanks for the tips.

It's on the east side of the road (right) going down the hill towards the direction of Jomtien. You can't miss it, it's all painted up fancy-like.

White socks? If it pleases you to think so. Remaining incognito is a good thing, compare to Glitterman.

BTW, don't forget FREE COKE! That's from the restaurant, not me.

So this would be on Thappraya road before you get to Pan-Pan restaurant?

Judging by the name this would be a seafood restaurant?

It's nowhere near Pan-Pan, much closer to Pattaya.

Now you have me utterly confused. Let's say you start at the intersection Thappraya/Pratumnak. Where do you head from there?

On this map, on Tappraya Road somewhere between Soi 5 and Pattaya 3rd, east side (not beach side). They have a big sign, can't miss it.

Anyway, based on what they did to their building, there is some money behind this new restaurant effort. Hoping they hired some good cooks too. I know its kind of weird but let's face it, most of the Thai restaurants in town aren't that great as this is a tourist trap town.

That's the confusing part Jingthing.

You mean UP the hiil towards Jomtien, or DOWN the hill towards Pattaya.

So is it same side as Mike's or opposite side?

[Jingthing]

Same side as Mikes.

Went there a couple of nights ago. This is exclusively a fish restaurant. No sea food, chicken, pork etc. Only fish in all kinds of dishes from the BBQ whole fish to somtam with fish.

Tried several dishes and it was all good, and all dishes are very reasonably priced. They have a special with two whole pla sawan baked in salt and BBQed for 250 Baht. Very friendly staff.

Presume it is up the hill from Captains Corner on the same side?

P.S.

JT are you a shareholder or on commission?

When did you stop beating your wife?

P.S. -- I've not been there yet. It always look empty when I pass and I don't like empty restaurants. They must be hurting. A shame if they are good.

Oh, BTW, I think the FREE COKE sign has been taken down, so if you didn't get your FREE COKE, you blew it.

Yes, it's on the soi angling off to the left.

[Jingthing]

It's still open! Maybe it's good. Any reports?

The free Coke offer is history though.
