healthcaretaker Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Any local can recommend where to find any outstanding restaurant or street food for local food other than those touristy seafood restaurants ? Which part of which road can I find the most cafes with a/c ? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

healthcaretaker Posted February 23, 2012 Author Share Posted February 23, 2012 Can I assume you are mostly looking for Thai food? Yes, thank you. I prefer Thai food but foreign food can be taken too if it is specially outstanding and not costly or out of the way. For Thai food, I am willing to go anywhere for it as I have many days there. I love the basil leaves fried with minced meat or crispy pork. I must have it every 48 hrs, even as a snack or between meals.For cafes, I prefer western types but not those inside a hotel.

Jingthing Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 I like Boat Restaurant on 2nd across from the sex sois for pad krapow. Ask for it spicy if you want that. The trouble with Thai food in general in the tourist areas is of course the tourist trap mentality of most of the places. To get closer to the real deal you generally need to move away somewhat from the main tourist areas. For example from 2nd and Pattaya Klang, start walking on Klang towards Sukhuwvit. There are a number of small Thai eateries that cater to both Thais are more localized foreigners. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it at the Citin Garden Pattaya Resort, somewhere 2 -3km east of walking street, just before reaching Sukhimvit Road ? I found it it at Google Map but google map occassionally have mistakes.Where is "from 2nd and Pattaya Klang" ? I have problems with Pattaya adresses, so many 2nd, or soi 2 or tai 2, it's confusing. I am only familiar with Royal Garden Plaza, the intersection where you change songtheaw to Jomtien and the newer and bigger shopping mall with viewing platform to see the sea(what name is this ?) Any newly developed areas with night market or more a/c cafes ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Boat is in between Pattaya Tai (the baht bus queue to Jomtien) and Royal Garden on 2nd road, east side. You are right sex sois is an imprecise phrase given there are a number of sex soi clusters in town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is what i seen in googfle map stated in #post5 correct ? Is Boat very near to Sukhimvit Road at the Citin garden Pattaya resort ? Boat isn't really anything special. Not aircon. I just like their Pad Krapow. No, it is nowhere near Sukhumwit! It is on 2nd road between Royal Garden and Pattaya Tai (south Pattaya road). Sorry, best I can do. I'm sure you can find Royal Garden Plaza mall. (The mall with Ripleys Believe it or not.) Edited February 23, 2012 by Jingthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, I gather now that it is in Pattaya Sai Song, somewhere just south of Royal Garden Plaza(less than 500m away) before reaching Pattaya Tai; and the Boat Restaurant at google map is a different one. I presume i can find the word "Boat" in English at their place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
