Firefly Pool & Restaurant — Restaurant in Choeng Thale

Disappointed by the experience, mainly due to the service. They came over to take our order and we had to explain that we were still waiting to see the menus (20 minutes after being seated). It didn't improve. We ordered an appetiser (Hummus) & main course (salmon). Food was about average. Well presented but not particularly flavoursome. After trying to attract attention for about half an hour, we gave up and had to walk to the exit to request our bill.

Overall the food and service did not do justice to the beautiful setting, price or 5 Star aspirations of the...

9.8/10 Part of The Pavillions experience. Everything except ham is halal so that's the biggest turn on right there. Amazing and fresh assortment of fruits, salads, from all over the world. Make your own juice if you don't want presqueezed kind. Omelettes, pancakes, crepes, coffee, tea of every variety. Menu change every day. Got to try authentic Chinese food that I may never have otherwise ordered ala carte. My kids who never eat eggs, ate them here because of the pleasant and frankly welcoming atmosphere. The only peeve is, they shouldn't leave any fruit or salad uncovered, as there are just too many insects flying. It is to be expected since there are an abundance of...
