HDRIDER Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 (edited) Hi What you think about Les Anges,RPM? is it because low season? (sorry, green season) been in there 2 times in 1 week, not very good and waiting for so long for food, and some of the food was cold, and we was 3 people. And then they say open 07:00 (just wanna buy fresh bread)not open i like the bread but look like i have to buy my bread another place,,,,and its not cheap in there Edited August 29, 2011 by HDRIDER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaiIand Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 They changed chef after a few months or the french boss stopped coming around. Food was amazing when it opened. Now i dont see the difference between there and a cheap joint in rawai. I might enjoy the cheap joint since i wont be expecting so much and paying so much. Also the whole staff are smokers and last time i went i could taste the cig residue on a few items. I said this earlier. Best bread @ wine connection. Only edible bread in the whole area, 10x better than TOP's bakery. RPM is amazing, except for food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valentine Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Maybe they have gone downhill since Peter, the English chef, left & joined Watermark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDRIDER Posted August 29, 2011 Author Share Posted August 29, 2011 Hi You might be right i thought the food was good before, will see what time they want to open in the morning so i can get bread, so close. My GF said it’s the smallest tiger prawns she have ever seen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumpyoldman Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Other than the sports club/gym facility, does any business at RPM work? Maybe we should add RPM to the biggest waste of money in Phuket thread...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barka Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Other than the sports club/gym facility, does any business at RPM work?

Somtamnication Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 I always wondered about RPM. The doctore Ugolini, owner of Limoncello and the Watermark, pays 180,000 baht a month for rent at RPM for the so called Italian restaurant. Always empty. I thought Peter was the owner of Les Anges. I guess I was wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thaiIand Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 They have the beauty clinic for wannabe hiso's. They have an amazing spa. They have a few offices. Skippers isnt good but it has nice decoration and facilities to only drink beer wioth friends and is always packed. Lot's of events in the day for the eldery. They have daily boat tours leaving from an office and docks at RPM. that's 300+ ppl a day. Lot's of convention, small parties from small thai companies. Only reason its not as big as you'd think is that if you're an idiot or a drunk driver, there seems to be a mandotary turn at boat lagoon from the right or middle lane,.

The young chef he had 3 years ago left to open his own restaurant. Wonder where it is....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDRIDER Posted August 30, 2011 Author Share Posted August 30, 2011 You know people come here in yacht, some are very expensive, and some can afford to buy a condo cost up to 130 Mill, maybe just maybe these people want some great food and they don’t mind pay for great food,,,,,,,,,,,just a thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDRIDER Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 I don’t believe it, bought a baguette this morning, i saw no baguette in shop but they came with one from kitchen, surprise when i came home, it was from yesterday, it was 08.15 and the shop was open Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaiIand Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 Les Anges is definitely not going to stay open for a long time.. Businesses that cater to thai can stay open with bad food but not business open for foreigners with money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
