mark275 Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 I want to apologize personally if any of the drivers of the two DaVinci Fortuners have driven dangerously, including me who is one of the co-owners. There is NO excuse for driving dangerously on Thai roads, they are dangerous enough and when you have the name of your business splashed across both sides it seems a little stupid.. I will personally talk to all of the staff that drive these vehicules. I would like to invite you and your family to have dinner at DaVinci on me. Please contact me through the restaurant or just turn up with a printed copy of this. Hopefully we wont have 20 people turning up with the same piece of paper....:-) Once again we apologize and take all comments regarding DaVinci on Thai Visa Seriously. Ever since some idiot in a Da Vinci fortuner tried to run me and my family off the road, speeding like a maniac, I refuse to give that place a try. I do want others to view my review on the Saigon restaurant in Chalong. Really worth the trip (but not considered falang food, per the topic).

MissChris Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Sunday Roast in the south of the island, any new recommendations Only ever go to Happy Days which is just fine for me. Includes soup & coffee. They do not do roast lamb which i really like. I though Kiwis were partial to roast lamb to Why don't you ask them if they'll give roast lamb (yum!) a try?

I did mention it but they did not seem interested, I do not know why, you can buy New Zealand lamb at Makro cheaper than you pay for Aussie lamb in Australia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katabeachbum Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Most Thais I know do not eat or cook lamb. They simply dislike lamb/smell. NZ lamb leg is only 440 baht/kg at Macro, so we do our Sunday roasts at home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snamos Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Yeah I know what you mean....as a regular there Ive been having them since Daeng started cooking them, I tried suggesting it there but it has fallen on deaf ears....maybe the fact that more people from the UK and Europe eat there than Aussies and Kiwis. Im back in a week...I will personally buy a lamb and give it to Daeng to cook on Sunday the 20th. If it ends up really popular they might try it the next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the girls are run off their feet, so sometimes there might be a bit of a wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eriksen Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 seems I got this in the wrong spot, I was refering to a small open air "box kitchen" next to villa market. Sounds great, good one, thanks,..

eriksen Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 I have to comment, I live here and have also lived many places around the globe and yes, am a Kebab, Yirros, Sharma fanatic big time. Sometimes when I get a good one I take one away to attempt to reheat later...(not recommended) Anyways, this is what I have found: Family Res next to Lotus Rawai = good value (when 90B) with good garlic sauce (I buy it from there in a container 1 and half kg take home.) and great chilli or hot sauce (I dont like it sweet and this is great stuff) There are many variations as you Kebab fans know, these have like a coleslaw filling as opposed to the lettuce/tomato/onion thing. If you catch the meat (good marinade) of chicken on a good day it is quite good, if on a bad day (30% of my visits) not so much, the meat will be tasteless like some kind of marinated carboard, in fact one day I could not eat more than half the meat even though hungry. The pittabread is made there too and they supply villa market (I heard) and other Kebab places. (Seems it's not easy to find on Phuket or bring from BKK, "theres one for you if u are a bakery!") So in summary of Family res I will keep going there until I find better. Kebab House : Went there once and will give them another go, but I had something else on the menu similar to a Kebab (I know this is off Kebab topic but) everything was made with care and fresh, but small.. I mean a normall farang chap would need 3 to be happy. Will go back and try the Kebabs when I am not too hungry (110B there abouts) Then there is a kebab place up the road a bit towards Rawai on the hill with, it seems part of a restaurant, I did not go in as I saw no others there and dont like getting sick because of "leftover meat" but will also try them. Please remember it seems hard to get consistant quality of food here, with cooks leaving, new staff, the boss not watching... and so on... So common you Kebab lovers and tell us whats what... went down last night to the Kebab House in Rawai, what a good kebab, best thing was probably their yogurt dressing, kebabs quality food! I will eat there many times to! adress check http://www.phuketgaz...rticle9870.html Is that the same place I have so far only read complaints about here on TV? i think there was another place to in rawai that served kebab to?, this place is new..
