Jomtien - Enjoy Andre's (very good middle of the road fare)

[ChiFlyer]

I got to chatting with a guy who does pool laps in the morning about the same time that I do. Actually, he does laps and I paddle around a bit, but I am getting stronger at what I am doing. I guess that is what counts. The pool at VT2 is really good IMO and one of the things I look forward to for a potential move to Jomtien is having year round pool access. When here I do one hour in the morning and another hour in late afternoon.

Anyway, the guy recommended Andre's to me saying it is not Cafe des Amis, but it costs a hell of a lot less. I went tonight and fully agree. I had duck with orange sauce and 1/2 carafe of very drinkable wine for under 600 baht. This place is not top of the line, but it is very good for the value. I was not crazy about the duck (not rendered enough), but Andre's has a deep menu with what is reported to be good Thai food as well.

Oops, forgot to say it is on Thappraya Soi 6 alley. If you get to 6 and Thappraya you can not miss it.

Some pics.

Yeah, I've been there a few times for Belgian food. It's pretty good.  I see here they have daily and weekly specials now. Thanks for bringing this place up. I forgot about it.

I used to visit Enjoy André once a week until about half a year ago, when it began sliding.

André himself is seldom there (tour guiding in Chiang Mai) and leaves the business to his wife, Mai.

Aha.

Well, I haven't been there for years. Oh well.

Would be great if someone would post menu

Can't find one on website or Facebook page.

BTW, is it an outdoor place with a roof rather than an enclosed airconditioned one?

Could be a bit uncomfortable at times.

It is al fresca, but with plenty of fans. The menu is quite deep. Something for everyone, including what some have said is decent Thai food. I like the place, but am not gung ho on it. The meal in the pic was under 600 baht, including the 1/2 carafe of wine. The wine was decent.

Thanks.

Always good to know of different places.
