Jingthing Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 New York pizza on 3rd road near Buffalo bar Sent from my GT-S7562 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Try the meatball ponzone there (same same but different from calzone).

Jingthing Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 (edited) Casa Fellini. I think there might two locations, same menu. South Pattaya in one of the sexy sois. And Rompho Market Jomtien (newer I think). The pictures of the pizza looks nice, the prices are HIGHER END. I only mention because I heard the pizza highly praised elsewhere. I'm off the pizza and I think their prices are too HIGH anyway! I was surprised to see the place at that Jomtien market. It seems to mostly attract more budget oriented people.

I still find the price level weirdly high especially in THAT location. Like I think I noticed steak items in the 1000 baht range.

Jingthing Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 I don't know. It just seems a slummy location to go to a spendy shophouse restaurant, that's all. Good luck to them anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seasia Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Has anyone tried this place? Volare Rest cafe & friends While I'm not a fan of tripadvisor, I pass this place regularly and the people look happy. People commenting the pizzas are great. Photos of two of them on the link. One of them has a promising CHAR. The other one has some serious LEAVES action going on! http://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaurant_Review-g293919-d3948817-Reviews-Volare_Rest_cafe_friends-Pattaya_Chonburi_Province.html Hi Yes, twice. First visit had a salad, cold cuts platter and tortellini, all very good. Service good, house wine OK. 2nd visit, same starters followed by a prosciutto pizza, the pizza was fair to good. I thought the prosciutto could have done with being slightly higher quality I will go again sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaaSaparot Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 I tried a new pizza place in Jomtien today , Balilla Pizzeria in Soi Chayapruek , up 400 meter from beach rd, on the left side . Italian made pizzas and prices around 200 baht for a good medium size pizza. They opened 3 months ago. It was better than other pizzas I have tried in Pattaya. They also have branches in Bangkok and Chiang Mai . If you're staying in Jomtien you should go and check it out. Friendly staff. http://balilla.asia/ Find it hard to take any restaurant seriously that has Haiwaiian(sic) Pizza on their menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiu-Jitsu Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 (edited) This might sound weird, but here goes. A poster here has used my mention of CASA RIZZI to fuel a vicious personal attack on another thread, suggesting I am pigging out on pizzas all the time. I do know a lot about existing Pattaya pizza places from my PAST over MANY YEARS but the truth is I have only consumed one pizza in well over year, a very thin crust, VERY minimalistic pizza at CASA RIZZI, really limited cheese as well, described in detail here. I skipped my next meal. Perhaps one reason I was upset that they didn't serve me the pizza as described on their menu was that I so RARELY consume ANY pizza. One pizza in over a year, you REALLY want it to be the THING, yes? I have no plans to eat another pizza anywhere in the foreseeable future. So when I comment about my impression of pizza at La Bocca and any other place, it is from the PAST, unless otherwise noted. BTW, even in my "pizza pigging day" pizza every two weeks was pretty much the max. Also I have not had fish and chips in SEVERAL YEARS. I am not representing pizza as a healthy food. I think it's not so bad in moderation for non-fat people. Fish and chips is horrible food for everyone. There it is. Truth and transparency with pizza commenting, you get that from me! Cheers. But often a load of carp thrown in for good measure. Like your comment above(highlighted in bold). Utterly narrow minded. So many variations of fish and chips available, with the preparation and quality adding more variables. But in your haste to sound like quite the bon viveur, you end up sounding like a crashing bore. Tone it down eh? Edited January 12, 2014 by Jiu-Jitsu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tone it down eh? The chips are worse than the fish. I suppose there are some health food versions of fish and chips, but they wouldn't be deep fried, and what's the point of fish and chips that aren't deep fried? Anyway let me know if you know a local that does a healthy version of fish and chips. Otherwise, not really bothered by your strong tone. I've been called worse. Before noon today. I am what I am, you are what you are. Cheers! Edited January 12, 2014 by Jingthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manarak Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Oh those judgemental posts, people complainign about hawaiian pizza and others slagging off fish and chips as being horrible - no mention of taste, just that it's fat and unhealthy, LOL. We will all croak, get over it... Now back to the subject: I heard that a newish restaurant located just right of Friendship makes good pizza for a reasonable price (120 baht). Will check it out as soon as I get a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will check it out as soon as I get a chance. You forgot people, who judge food by price alone. You think "touché" but you are mistaken. Food has a price, and the price alone can be judged on its own. I'm not sure how much you can tell by price. Typical restaurant markup is 3 times food cost. Cheap venues have lower overhead so can markup less, and vice versa for costly venues. If you know basic food costs then sometimes you can tell a dish can't possibly be good at a low price. A pizza costing 50 baht can't possibly have much cheese, or much good cheese on it, cheese being so expensive here. So you can only get clues. If something seems priced very high, you are right to suspect a rip off again if you know basic food costs, unless there is some food ingredient that is super expensive. For example, a pizza that piled on good cheese in Thailand would need to be high priced. Similarly to dim sum, I don't think it is possible to deliver decent dim sum in Thailand at 20 baht a plate!

Jingthing Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 That's the French bakery/restaurant there, I think. Not new. Maybe the pizza thing is new. Not sure. I think it is possible to do a decent minimalist Italian style thin crust pizza, tiny if any cheap cost toppings, for that price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michaelaway Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 A friend ordered a Hawaiian pizza from Pizzeria Balilla on Soi Chaiyapruk the other night. That's not a combo I would order (and I was im lao, so I didn't try it) but it looked pretty darn good: like a minimalist Italian style pizza... I'll order from there soon.
