Description

Nothing less than a mega resort-restaurant decked out in Bali-contemporary style over a 15-rai area. With its capacity for up to 600 people both indoors and outdoors, eight KTV rooms for 10-40 people, it’s not exactly boutique but every single section is actually waterside. The sophisticated lighting creates a convincing illusion of intimacy. Live music performed by in-house bands starts at 7pm. Expect Thai pop rock, commercial pop and inter songs, plus lots of golden oldies. Sit, chill and chat with your pals in what may be the new standard for the typical suan ahharn.

---------------------------------

Waterside is what is known as a "resort" restaurant-because it looks enough like a resort for the owner to call it that. Built over a large swamp, the sprawling eatery is constructed of wood and surrounded by lots of small trees. Fish swim happily in the water below. It is an open-air restaurant, but it also has a large air-conditioned room and a karaoke room for people who, really, are better off staying at home. A nice place to spend an evening with a group of friends. Stick to the seafood.
