A great bowl of soup.

Across from my hotel was a little thai, I guess you would call it an open air restaurant. Every morning I would wake up and as usual it would be either before the sun was up or just after. I would walk to my balcony and watch the world pass very slowly by, for in Pattaya the night time is when it seems to be on steroids. For me the quite time is the best. It seems the freshest and simplest of times, just after the sun has shown it's face.

The traffic is slow, just a few mopeds moving and every now and again one would stop at this restaurant, purchase something then leave. This went on for a few days before I made my way across the road to purchase my first of several early morning bowls of joy from this wonderfully simple open air thai restaurant. Here is a picture of one of his soups. The average cost of a bowl of soup some rice, two chicken legs and a glass of water was about a dollar and 20 cents.

I saw this place last September but never made my way across the street. I am very happy that I finely tried some of his soups, oh and his fried chicken is great too.
