Best Sunday roast these days?

Hemingways soi honey on Sunday. 230b for pork...

It seems that Nickeys is very popular, is it going to be difficult to get an empty table on Sunday lunch or dinner time?

No way I'd risk leaving it til 6pm at Nicky's 2pm is about as late as I go for my Takeaway Large Roast Lamb.

[Jonsintown]

My current two favourites,

Nicky's on Soi Bukhaow and The Sportsman on the more sane of the Soi 13s

Last 2 Sunday’s I’ve eaten at the Queen Vic and Robin Hood. Both more than edible but Robin Hood edges it.

Is Queen Vic buffet?

For all restaurants in Pattaya that serve British-style Sunday roast dinners, the earlier you can get there, the better, especially if it's a buffet.  All restaurants prepare a limited number of dinners to serve and if you go too late, they can be sold out.  I always tried to hit a buffet as soon as the restaurant began serving it so the food would be fresh and hadn't been standing out too long.

Just been to Nicky’s.  Amazing.  

I ordered the large trio. 

If there is a better plate of roast on the planet I’ve never seen it. 

outstanding.  
 

red wine glass was generous and tasty also. 
 

wow

Got the SR Carvery from Sportsman today, delivered by Foodpanda, was able to get 130B discount so came in at a very reasonable 320B. It was an awesome feed, have soup, ham chicken and pork left over for tomorrow.

Must add, star of the show was the beef. Only criticism was there were no mashed spuds. 

Not sure if that was a one off discount.

[Dutcher]

Would you guys say that there is any difference in the roast quality when ordering on a Sunday compared to any other day of the week? Generally speaking for the restaurants in Pattaya serving roasts. Because my understanding is that a roast is traditionally eaten on Sunday.

^^^

     I'm traditional so no idea.  

[jimboh]

During Covid, I regularly had the roast dinners delivered from Sportsman, as Hungrynow did some great offers and must say, no difference from SR.

Sure do miss Hungrynow

Just been to Nicky's ...yikes, probably the biggest meal i've ate in a few years lol. No need to try other places, everything perfect.

Takeaway Large Lamb Roast from Nicky's......real oven roasted (not fried) potatoes.

This is Pt 1 i.e. half of it.

[Edge]

 

Pt 2 The second half of my Takeaway from Nicky's (added peas).

Is that supposed to be gravy or Mint sauce--looks like slime?

Quite sure it's Mint. And I fucking love the stuff with lamb.

Yes, a touch dissapointing, especially compared with the old retox offering. I just figured it was the post covid/inflation effect. 

I'm not fussy at all, so its all enjoyed, but some enjoyed more than others.

[jimboh]

Must say, I do find the menu/food in both Hemmingway's, uninspiring.

Robin Hood is bloody good.  I do the 700 THB option which has all you can eat starters (shrimp cocktail, pigs in blanket, etc), all cuts of meat/vege and as much dessert as you’d like (usually 3 choices). 
 

little more expensive than say the vic but quality is superior at Robin Hood in my opinion 

[davetherave3311]

This is really going to be a trip of firsts for me. Never, ever, ever, have I ever been abroad where I could get a traditional Sunday Roast. They look bloody good too!

Part of me is saying 'Why the F are you travelling half way around the world to eat a Sunday dinner?!'

And then there is another part of me that is saying.. 'Go on. Eat it. Its only one day a week'

I did live abroad for 11 years. I missed gravy and salt n Vinegar crisps. There was no way to get them where I was unless someone brought them over for me. So I do understand.

Yorkshire puddings in Thailand. Its quite hillarious actually. Bloody brilliant.

Tried Nicky's today and was very impressed.

Had a large plate with a trio of meats, lamb, beef and pork and was very impressed.

I got this email from Kinnaree:

             

                       

I don't know if it's the same offer as pre-Covid, but it used to be the Sunday roast was free if you had a high-enough tab.
