Kaoboi Bebobp Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 I thought simple simons was an not a good breakfast. Last went there a year ago and my picture was exactly the same. I found it tasteless really. In Jomtiem, my out and out favourite place for breakfast is the Sketchbook Cafe. For more farang food, Linda's is good, the new German bakery near to Winchesters is good as well. Pig and Whistle is dependable and tasty. I went to Simple Simon's a couple of times after immigration visits. I agree with others, it was tasteless. I find that with a lot of breakfasts in Thailand though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven100 Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 I stay at the Ravindra Beach Resort where the full buffet breakfast is extensive or when I fly into Bangkok I stay at the VIP room in the Sheraton and I think the breakfast is included in my VIP suite room...... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BugJackBaron Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Kai Loua ( heated egg interior in a cup) from the friendly sidecart vendor for 10 Baht.The standard of Western breakfasts, in tourist-trap Jomtien is appalling. Better British breakfasts can be found in Bangkok or Chiang Mai. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lou62 Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 For English B'fast I've recently eaten a couple of breakfasts at the Caddy Shack opposite Punch and Judy, Threppasit Road, Soi 8, ok it's not strictly Jomtien but not too far although you'd need transport. Small B'fast costs 110 bt with two toast, one egg, two rashers of bacon and a very nice sausage, tinned tomatoes (apparently you can ask for grilled fresh tomato if you prefer but I like tinned) tea or coffee. Good quality tasty ingredients. The large B'fast is 140 bt but I haven't yet ordered that. This will be a regular for me now for English B'fast having tried most of the rest.

KittenKong Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 The sausage quality can be a deal breaker. Most people seem to have their own idea of what makes a good sausage. The ones at the Irish Wolfhound are quite good, I think. Surely not the world's best though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnyscot Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Rich man poor man for me, if price is irrelevant id opt for the pig and whistle at the bottom of the hill on the right side before turning to beach direction, great choice and food was good, if its still there that is, last time for me in jomtiem/patts was early this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustJomtien Posted April 6, 2015 Author Share Posted April 6, 2015 (edited) On the recommendation of Thai Visa readers I visited the Rich Man Poor Man Guesthouse on Jomtien Soi 5 for their breakfast and it was a very enjoyable so thanks for the tip. Any other suggestions for a great breakfast in Jomtien are most welcome. I've written up a review over here.

Any other suggestions for a great breakfast in Jomtien are most welcome. I've written up a review over here. rich man poor man breakfast.jpg Back Fabrik, the german bakery in Jomtien 2nd rd. has the best breakfast that money can buy, 195 baht for the classic breakfast with eggs, sausages, freshly baked bread from the bakery, ham, salami, butter, jam and honey. And it includes orange juice and coffee. It's not American breakfast but compare it with rich man poor man and I think you will be positively surprised. Also their farmer breakfast is very good. Especially if you're a bread lover nothing can beat the quality of the German bread. Edited April 7, 2015 by balo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KittenKong Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 (edited) Get off at JBC front entrance and walk through from there. Back Fabrik is just at the rear of the JBC building. This Google street view image shows where it has been built since the Google photo was taken. https://goo.gl/maps/R2TX5 Edited April 7, 2015 by KittenKong 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This guy is a real artist when it comes to his baked breads. I was happy buying the small loafs at Food Mart and thought they were pretty good but this guys stuff is in another league. It's nice he will sell you a half loaf. Just ask. And don't forget to pick up the nice German butter he sells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
