    80baht Spaghetti Pattaya Thappraya Road

    Well I had vowed never to return to this place as after about 10 years of charging 80baht for spagetti they upped the price to 90 baht, but last night I relented and returned to savour their fine foods.

    This place is on the way to Jomtien from Pattaya and is at Jomtien Nivate where the famous Jade bar is, anyway there was about 30 customers there so it was pretty busy, service was really fast and the food as good as usual, here's a pic of my carbonara, I think it was about 130baht.

    Pattaya Restaurant Guide




    There are 2 ways to eat spagetti, the chop it up into little bits way, which I might add is frowned upon in Italy, or the twirl it up way, but believe it or not there is more to this than meets the eye, now I twirl it up and it has strands hanging down which I just slurp in whilst getting bits all over my face, a professional twirler gets it into a nice round ball of spagetti and therefore doesn't end up with half his meal on his chin, here's a proffesional twirler





    Now that is a class act.

    Next up was the escallopes, I thought he had ordered snails, but actually they are thin slices of pork cooked in a wine sauce, I got to admit I wish I had ordered them





    4 main dishes and 2 drinks for about 500baht, now that cant be bad

    Edited to add daytime picture.

    But the sauces go so much better with Pasta. Try a penne noodle, you can spear those babies with your fork.

    Well my eight year olds can eat penne noodles with any kind of sauce and dont have a problem one. You can always ask for a bib, and an extra roll of toilet paper.

    I think you're supposed to put the sauce over it. It tastes much better then.

    When are you in Pattaya Snaffy? We're due a gathering down there in the New Year, and it would be great if it coincided with your visit.

    Well I nipped down there again last night to show random chances how the city boys live, obviously out in the jungle where he lives they don't have too many Italian restaurants and he mainly eats insects and other stuff like that, well he said there were a lot of insects in Nakon Sawan so I assume thats what he eats, we got there about 7pm and we had to wait to be seated, the place was absolutely packed out, after a couple of minutes we joined a table, the nice old chap who sat next to RC gave him his bread, I think he could understand English and heard RC mention about nicking his bread, you know how violent these Welsh can get, got to admit yet another superb meal at bargain prices.

    rc's Lassagne, which I nicked some of and was great.




    and my spagetti bolognaise.

    DD if you really must eat spaghetti you might as well learn to do it properly...switch fork and spoon if you're right handed, take some strands in the fork, not too many to begin with, and wind it against the spoon, yes the inside of the spoon, that's a nice lad, thereby creating a lump of spaghetti with at worst an easily manageable strand or two hanging down. Otherwise stay in Phillistine mode and gross out your dining companions.

    who needs a bloody "H" in the word spaghetti, we all know how violent and nasty you Welsh people are, just take a look at this news report from last week.

    124 Drunken crazed Welshmen arrested yesterday for parading through eituysdfm jdfgvgahwcvhasvn zhdzs square where they threatened to kill and burn down any Englishmans house, all the charged were charged with carrying an offensive car door, English police were concerned about this uprising of sheep shaggers and believe the nasty violent Welsh are invading England to steal car doors.

    The Lassagne was great, much bettter than it looked and much better than having to eat bugs everyday, first time I've ever had to wait for a seat at a resteraunt in Thailand, tried to drag my folks there but I think it looked a bit low-so for them
    I have more than the average number of arm and legs

    The reason the Lasagna tastes so good, even though the noodles are overcooked, is that he uses real ricotta cheese. Other than the Montien on Wednesday nights, it is one of the most authentic Italian places around here.

    And you get to look at lots of hooker eye candy while you eat.

    Not to hard to make your own Ricotta, If you can make some good Cottage Cheese that is, then press it for a little while,
    It worked for me, not aas easy as just going to the store and buying it, but I don't know of a store here that sells it, for sure none in my area.
