globalmenace Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 A lot of these so-called "fine dining" establishments wouldn't cut it in the west. That's why they are in a blue-collar tourist town in Asia where they can fool punters used to KFC-level food. Beats me why people go to "upscale" places serving $7 Chilean plonk with a "wine dinner". You hit that nail on the head. There is exactly one decent restaurant in Jomtien, and no, I won't name it as it is a small Italian place that has all the business it can handle. If you want a good dinner, you need to go to Bangkok. ALL the western restaurants here in Pattaya stink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luudee Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Try Alois, all the old staff of Bruno's, excellent service, virtually identical menu to Bruno's and all for a fraction of the price, you wont be disapointed. H & H If you think Bruno's bad, than no sense trying Alois ... Sure it's all the Thai guys from Bruno's, BUT, the food quality is really down the toilet IMHO .... tasteless, badly prepared, low quality ingredients ...

Naam Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 addendum to Hilton buffet: there's also an "all you can drink wine" offer for 600 Baht plus tax and the assortment of wines and even some champagne is not too bad. but for the average guest who might drink two glasses of wine with his dinner the setup is not exactly economical. interesting would be perhaps if it comprised some different apéritifs and digestifs.

JolyonB Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 You mean that you were serious? I feel the question should be are you serious - or do you really know nothing about Pattaya ? Not sure who you are asking about serious? Personally I am serious that Au Bon Coin is the best restaurant in Pattaya, good menu, great ribe eye steak for Thailand, nice ambience, large wine list if you want, good house wne, and food reasonably priced. You will have to tell why this means I know nothng about Pattaya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tropo Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Once a week is our steak night. We go to foodland and get two 450 gram (YES we're carnivors) air-freight Australian Rib Eye steak (950 baht) Is that 950 baht per 450 gram steak? That would make it about 2100 per kilo which sounds about right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fgis Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Just wondering why so many expensive cars as Porsche in front of Bruno's ? Is it the place to be seen... ? As it seems that there is no good food reason to go there.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
