Yes, The Nest on Soi Diana, used to be called Robin's Nest. Never had a bad meal there. Probably one of the best restaurants in the area. A little bit on the pricey side compared to other restaurants on Soi Buakhao. But you get what you pay for. Thank you. Enjoyed the video. Note: It's always the skinny guys who eat the most.

Inflation prices in full force here in America. Fast food burger meal cost $12, fuel fill-up crosses $100 easy. Can never go wrong with meat and potatoes, if you ask me. Looked wonderful! Nong Nuy broke the #1 rule of ordering BBQ....never eat BBQ if wearing a white shirt. She stayed crisp and clean throughout the entire meal. She must be a magical unicorn!

A little bit different when you had an all you can eat Buffet. Back in the day,

Came to the nest for Sunday roast. Told me so beautiful. The lam was not even cooked properly. Almost raw. When you have to send back food it takes all the enjoyment out of finishing. They can video as many set up costumes as the want it don't change that I had to send my food back

Thanks for this David. Pre-covid I used to eat regularly at Robin's Nest on my holidays including the Sunday Roast (it used to be buffet style) but didn't try 'The Nest' when I visited Pattaya earlier this year. Glad to see the new management seem to have kept up the standard. I'd be interested in your opinion as to where is the best British style Sunday Roast in Pattaya - this one, The Sportsman or somewhere else? Cheers

@DavidAndNong

Жыл бұрын

The Nest seems very popular Phil, even still. I'll be honest never tried the sportsman for a Sunday roast. Our go to place is on the Darkside, Suggestions Restaurant, especially important is they have a garden, so wee Friday has a mad 10 minutes. In town, I would probably head to Robin Hood, the luxury carvery is really exceptional, however, I can never do a buffet any justice 🙏🙏

Looking at the 'after' plate makes me think your mum always said "Well, at least finish your meat", just like mine did... 555 I had 4 coffees and IIRC a club sandwich (slight hangover) at the old Robins Nest in late December 201p, which was very good and the whole menu looked good. Looks like The Nest is continuing the good value & quality.

Best breakfast is very very subjective. So many price ranges also. These are probably the most talked about breakfasts. Kungs, Devonshire, Robin Hood, Time, O'Garas & Tropical (darkside). If you did a poll, probably Cheap Charlie's would get the vote, however I'm not a fan of their sausages 🙏🙏

I'm amazed that you couldn't finish the meal as you've eaten much more in previous visits to other eating establishments. Robin's Nest - named after the owner Robin, a really nice Welsh bloke, who now owns The Hungry Hippo and before that Chunky Monkey. I don't know if he is still the owner of The Nest, now that the name has changed.

Great videos, David. But all you seem to do is walk around, eat, eat, eat, and say hello to a friend or two. Is this your whole life, there? And once you've taken a video of everything, what's left? Is there no more to your life than this? It's the same with Bangkok Pat, JWINTHAI, and a few others.

Glad you enjoy the videos talladale. Unfortunately Nong has at most two days off work per week. I say at most because if she has appointments she still goes in. So she worked last Sunday afternoon and when we finished this video we went to the salon supply shop for colours she had run out of ....and she went in for two appointments. I on the other hand walk my dog around 7.30 each morning, then answer my YT comments until Nong wakes up around 8.40...breakfast around 9.30 (normally eating out) then she heads into work. During the day I also take care of my Mum's shopping and usually help friends out with anything they need doing. An afternoon (very short) I sometimes spend shooting pool, until 5 when I walk and feed my dog. Nong gets home around 6.30 and we either cook or head out somewhere for a meal. Tuesday we play Killer Pool, Friday I'm out making cycling videos, Saturday I spend about 3 hours editing and usually about 6 hours spread over the Monday to Wednesday. Between all this I do the shopping and cleaning/laundry in our apartment. Sometimes on a Saturday night we head into walking street or LK Metro...trust me the time flies by. Sorry it seems so mundane, but our eating out videos is really us deciding where we are eating that day, plonking the camera on the table and then catching up on what has happened over the week. 🙏🙏
