Tasty Meals 100B or Less

[Fired Up Paul]

9 Food Coffee and Drink

Where it is: Soi Boomerang (pretty much diagonally opposite Hideaway - if you find Hideaway, you can't miss it)

What it is: It's a small Bar and Restaurant. The Bar Closes at 8-9 or later depending on customer demand.
Restaurant closes at 7pm, thought that can sometimes be stretched if you are a regular and probably always with prior notice.

Ambiance: There are around five high bar stools at the bar and 4 or 5 tables inside. Think outdoor bar more than higher end air conditioned restaurant. Still much more comfortable than the food court at Treetown with generally better prices.

The Food: A variety of Thai dishes, most between 50-80B. My go to is the Garlic Chicken, with rice. The food is always freshly cooked and the wait is normally short.

The Staff: Gael is the host and she is a scream - she always has a smile on her face and is very quick to joke. So is the Cook, just a slightly toned down version.

The Drinks: Drinks are dirt cheap making this a great place for pre-big night out dinner and drinks.
Smoothies are also a highlight and you can also get almost - barista level coffee - Gael's Uncle is a Barista... but he is in BKK 555

Be On The Look Out For:
If you order a traditionally spicy meal and want the spice reduced, be specific as not spicy can be interpreted as 5 chillis instead of 7.
So specify eg, "No Chilli's", or "1 Chilli", etc.

Thanks for this, sounds like a good feed…..I’m feeling more buoyant than I have for a while about a visit to Patts this year.

I guess you’ve had to hunt around for cheaper meals after the extortion of a week ago.

100% yes.

Though it is not a venue known for it's ladies and doesn't really have a line-up.

Been there several times and cannot fault the food. Gael is a scream.

$49 for a smoothie (even with two bananas) is a bit strong

I love the smoothies ... 49B not dollars.

Otherwise get a SML for 50B... hard to find them for that price outside of 7/11 or supermarkets.

To me in Pattaya, Terminal 21 food court has the best quality food at lowest price, taste better than these popular street stalls and even cheaper. And most importantly looks very clean. I can always have a meal, usually 2 different food items for 100 less, after so many times eating there at all different stalls all different food, still no need of imodium.

good call. even including 10 baht each way for the baht bus its still great value. can get 2 items, water, and pay the baht bus for 100baht. and ITS AIR CONDITIONED!

I just ate there Terminal 21 food court today, went to the Malay roti shop, I had a bowl of Malay chicken soup(very tasty soup with potato and chicken legs), a chicken briyani rice, and 2 plain roti for 100 baht less. Very tasty, I was so full, had to walk the mall 3 rounds to burn it off.

GREAT thread! 

Sadly, I generally spend like a 2-week millionaire, but it's great to see some quality low-priced options!

I like to have the Fish n Chips for 40 Baht and then follow it up with an original roti for 12 Baht - sometimes I will have an ice-cream (10 Baht, 1 Scoop, 15 Baht 2 Scoops).

The Roti is to die for!!

Agree, this place has to be one of the best food bargains in town, good portion size and quality food at dirt cheap prices. And I've learnt instead of saying not spicy, to saying no chilli.

Thank you for this post! I have been watching the Asok Terminal 21 food court videos on YouTube and was hoping that the Pattaya one had a similar restaurant as Larmoon Biryani. I hope that this one is still around when I visit in December.

I had a Michelin star meal today for 60Bt in BKK, see my TR for more details.

going south on buakaow it's on the right just before the junction with Soi 15.

if on Soi 15 heading towards the avenue shopping complex it's first turn on the right by the hideaway bar/restaurant.

boomerang is an L shaped soi. named after an aussie run guest house on the angle of the L now Naughty Club or naughty something

[Fired Up Paul]

It is well worth visiting for the large number of Gentlemen's Clubs and a great Italian Style Pizza joint - which, of course will cost you more than 100B.

Perhaps if you settle for a bottle of Aqua minerale but a great place indeed.
