Thai Marché bon appetit
November 20, 2018by David Herd
Superb decor & very good food
Thai Marché bon appetit
Thai Marché bon appetit, a fabulous new addition to Pattaya’s restaurant scene. Diagonally opposite Terminal 21 it is part of Tiffany’s the Transvestite Cabaretwhich has been operating for 40 years.
Chic and sophisticated
The decor is quite brilliant, certainly as good as anything I have seen in Pattaya.

Showing a selection of deserts & fruit juices.
A spectacular spiral sculpture.
Upon entering this upmarket cafe restaurant your eyes are immediately drawn to this fabulous spiral sculpture that stretches towards the ceiling.
This dish was absolutely superb, 10 out of 10.
Sadly I can’t remember exactly what it was called, just show the waitress this photo. 🙂
A very interesting taste, 9 out of 10.
My preference is usually 2 or 3 entrees rather that a large main meal, I’ll definitely be ordering this one again next visit.
Fresh spring rolls only B100 or $3 USD.
Quite tasty but the sauce was a little too spicy for me. 🙂
Mango cheesecake, YUM!
Rather small but well worth B95.

I’m a sucker for deserts, especially mango & sticky rice.
Open kitchen featuring all day snacks.
An ideal spot for coffee & cake any time of the day.
Part of the food preparation area
It’s always nice to be able to see the chefs at work.
I think I’ll be a regular here.
The restaurant along with Tiffany’s is part of the nearby Woodlands group.
My 2nd visit was as good as the first time.
Tried some different dishes & they were all excellent. Deep fried spring rolls with crab meat,
These dumplings were to die for. 🙂
What a fantastic colour. 🙂
Mango & sticky rice is an iconic Thai desert.
A wonderful way to finish a terrific lunch.
Chicken Satay
Very tasty & cooked to perfection.
Thai Marche & Tiffany’s
Right on 2nd Road Pattaya opposite Terminal 21. It will look a lot better once those ugly wires are put underground.
My history, particularly over the last 30 years is dominated by overseas travel. I sold my home in Australia October 20th 2011 and have have been living in Thailand since then. I don’t know where the time has gone? It seems like you go to sleep one night, wake up the next morning, and 20 years have flashed by. Not sure how many years I have left, however I have enjoyed a wonderful charmed life, and if it all ended today I would leave this world with no regrets.
I was born in Sydney halfway through the last century, started my travels in the 60s with the usual U.K. Europe adventure at the age of 20, back to Australia and worked in Sydney, Melbourne & Adelaide in Sales & Marketing with multinational companies including Sanyo, Canon & Remington.
Engaged to be married 3 times and never quite made it to the alter, finally realized by the mid 90s I was not cut out for "long term relationships" so I moved to the Gold Coast in Queensland in January 1987, worked for a couple of banks as a Financial Planner, I took a year off work in 1998 to travel and never went back to full time work again, after 25 fun filled years on the Coast I packed up and moved to Thailand.
What is the purpose of this blog? Well I really want to use it to record my travel experiences & to display my photographs, give and receive travel tips, comment on places I visit, restaurants I eat in and use it to replace the autobiography I intended to write, apart from all that it helps me fill in my day. :)
I moved to Thailand mainly because I wanted to keep travelling while my health allowed me to, there are huge advantages being closer to all the places I want to visit.
Cost of living in Thailand is around 35% of the cost in Australia, plus flights are 50% cheaper because you are much closer to everywhere. ????
Consequently I am able to travel to many more places compared to living in Australia.
Having said all that, it is & has always been my intention to return to Australia when my travelling is finished, I predict this will happen around 2021.
