Food review Pattaya 2022 featuring my favourite restaurants in this city on the gulf of Thailand. The dish above was only $3 AUD at one of the local food courts.

This photo blog covers the first 6 months of 2022.

It’s all about oysters

Food review Pattaya 2022

Flown in fresh from France every week. These are Fine de Clare No 2. These oysters are finished for several weeks in shallow clay ponds where they acquire a superior quality shell to oysters grown in the open sea.

Belon oysters

Food review Pattaya 2022   Food review Pattaya 2022

 The true Belon Oyster is culitivated in the Belon River, France and has the AOC protected name. Technically, only oysters from this region in France can be called Belon Oysters.

Two varieties
