    I deliberately watch your feasting videos after a hard week at work,which besides makes me laugh with your chemistry with your hilarious wife,but is very relaxing.

      As an immigrant, I find 4th-5th generation Scots and Irish in Australia and NZ to be eye-roll worthy.
      They bleet about their oppressed ancestry, yet they're just as, if not more racists towards Aboriginals and 'wogs', as Brits. are.
      This channel made me re-'like them

    I love this. A restaurant with a proud chef that is making delicious food to please his customers is something to promote. You can see how proud this guy is, and he modified the dishes to cater for the table and simply charged a little extra. Amazing food, very modest prices and personalised service. Thanks.

      The Owner is just a pure Gem, we were going to have 3 mains, but there was just no way, we couldn't even finish the two. He is a little scared that he will not cope with extra customers but really this meal is worth a little wait 🙏

    Hi David & lovely Nong and your beautiful Mam ( as we say here in Dublin ) WOW what can I say that food looks amazing a little hidden gem I will definitely have to try this bee a foodie as I am. One my best friends who’s from London know him 45 years since we arrived in Sydney Australia he now lives in the Philippines and is coming to visit me in Pattaya in November with his new wife ( Honeymoon ) have not seen him for at least 5 years so it going to be very exciting, he’s a foodie as well we definitely be taken them there. The owner and family look like beautiful people as so warm and friendly love it.
    Keep up the great work Cheers Irish Paul ( only 46 days to go who’s counting 😂 )

    Best video so far, David. I think sometimes we forget to say things like that. We are all too quick at coming forwards to say this is wrong or that isn't right. If I get to Pattaya any time soon, this place is firmly on my go to list. The price to quantity scale wasn't stressed enough. All that food worked out to £10 per person. Not only were the portions big but it sounds as if they were delicious too. Thanks for telling us about that place.

      @DavidAndNong  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks so much Tony, we go here so often, but only recently ordered his Thai food and was shocked with what we received compared to the menu photos, he really over delivers, on everything. I really didnt know how much the cost was going to be and the total footage was over 90 minutes, so I had to cut so much to get it to a watchable length. Taste was on point, so much so we booked for Christmas Day and have already been back since we filmed this video 🙏
