Can we assume that Tuesday is the last night for Pao? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can we assume that Tuesday is the last night for Pao? No we can't assume that. Pao is closed tonight and you can take that to the dumpling bank. Rumor is that the "Golden One" may come out of retirement to announce the grand reopening date, but don't quote me on that!

I know that is what the SIGN says. But I rather seriously doubt that the place is actually opening tomorrow Oct 2. They are normally closed Mondays. Probably best to wait for a post from the owner and/or someone who actually SEES that they are open again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asiantravel Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 (edited) I was there about seven weeks ago and they had closed the restaurant for one month . So then two weeks ago I turned up at the door to find that sign saying they were away for another month? Is it just me or does anyone else think this is an extraordinary way to run a restaurant business? Edited October 1, 2012 by Asiantravel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also doubt its going to re-open Sep 30 / Oct 2nd / 1st week of Oct as its the Autumn Festival and anything remotely Chinese will be shutdown for 7-8 days. Shame, as I am dying to try this place - authentic Chinese cuisine in Pattaya: our cup runneth over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They normally would not be there at that time, even if opening. But the point is they haven't even taken the sign down saying they will be back on the 30th what I've learnt from this is if they do come back I'm going get their phone number and I'm always going to phone before going there from now on! Looking back at the beginning of this thread this pattern of closing for long periods has been happening from the beginning and you can no longer rely on just turning up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted October 3, 2012 Author Share Posted October 3, 2012 My feeling is that the sign is a mistake and the real date is more like 10/30 than 9/30. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asiantravel Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 (edited) I have his number. I'll shoot him a text and ask when they will be open again. It should be interesting to see the response you receive. My theory is they have gone to look for a new location not just in Pattaya but even in a different country. I may be wrong and indeed I hope I'm wrong but when I was there there were never more than two other tables occupied and because of that he had time to engage in conversation with me. Anyone else that chated with him will know they were not particularly impressed with Pattaya. He expressed his disappointment that the customers who did like it there didn't come more often and it was clear that he was certainly not enamoured with the location in terms of getting passing customers. I just believe even though there are a few loyal supporters like us posting in this thread there were simply were not enough to sustain his business. I don't agree about the hobby versus business either because anyone with those sorts of culinary talents wouldn't be wasting them as a hobby.

Jingthing Posted October 4, 2012 Author Share Posted October 4, 2012 Publicity is publicity which is always good WHEN they open again, which I predict will be in the same location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
