On our recent trip to Pattaya, we went a number of times to Central Festival, a newly completed shopping mall right in the middle of Pattaya city. The kids loved it as they had so many outlets for food. So, this blog will contain visits from the few times that we were there.

View at night...well lited up.
The mall is well designed and have all the major retailers there (not counting the numerous food outlets). It has also a great sea view and with all the night happening places just right next door. This mall is just perfect for those with children and not wanting to be walking around outside with all the go go bars, etc.
We had dinner one night at the Food Loft which is an upmarket food court. The decor is very chic and it had around 10 "stalls" serving various food. The quality of the food is not bad.

My son's lamb shank. Not bad.
My other son's mixed seafood and meat pasta. He said it was yummy.
My daughter's noodle soup. I had some and it was good.
For dessert, our family's favorite in Thailand is Swensens where we will share the earthquake. (8 scoops of ice cream) Yummy and reasonably priced as well.
Nice deco and cosy.
Count the scoops and cherries....yummy. Not forgetting the whipped cream.
The second time round, we had a fondue and some sundaes. equally great finish to a meal.
My daughter's coloring...well, can't blame a doting dad, right?
One thing you won't see in Malaysia is KFC selling beer in its outlets.
Also, Secret Recipe selling beer and RED ROSES....wah.
During the last night, there was a huge storm just after we got into the mall. The wind was so strong that the glass doors facing the sea was pushed opened and we could feel the rain and wind in the mall. Water was also leaking from the plaster ceiling.
It was quite hilarious to see the security personnel and cleaning crew wiping the water and trying to keep the doors closed until someone thought about bringing keys to lock the glass doors.
We also had Japanese food at Fuji restaurant, one of the larger chains in Thailand and as usual, good food at reasonable prices.
Until the next time, cheers.
