We can't tell you anything about the food in this resort though. Simply because we didn't bother with the food here due to its exorbitant prices at an average of 350 baht per dish. To us, that' s just too much money to pay for a single dish of Thai food and, more often than not, you really can get good Thai food at one-tenth of the quoted restaurant prices. Unless you are prepared to spend more than 2,000 baht on every meal each time, then you should give the restaurant a miss. We ended up walking out of the resort to feed our stomach for lunch and dinner at a nearby local seafood place, just about 200 metres away from the resort. It was a really good local place where prices are definitely more than reasonable. The food was so good that even for a non-seafood eater like Silver Bullet, we ended up going to the same place for 2 nights straight as Silver Bullet could not get enough of the Deep Fried Seabass with Chilli. In fact, Silver Bullet insisted we go back to that restaurant as he loved the seabass. Very unlike Silver Bullet, but hey! that's a testament to how good and fresh the seafood was. There were also a lot of Thais congregating there. The rule of the thumb is: If you see a lot of Thais congregating in a local seafood place, it usually means that they serve good food.
All in all, a very rejuvenating trip and we definitely are the shiny, happy people once again. :)
