Do you want Thai for dinner? Yep. So let's go to Thailand.

So after breakfast yesterday it was going to be slack day. MrP off to the gym. Pool area is nice. Water temp perfect. Nice views over the beach. We did go for a walk.

Some nice Asian snacks for lunch.

By now we’d been by the pool for a few hours so back to the room to change and sort out dinner. There seems to be a large group of Aussies celebrating we presumed an upcoming wedding. They stayed by the bar all day and still there at 9pm when we passed by after dinner. Two noisy people - a woman with bright red hair and we could hear her cackling even in the room. And another guy. He was awol after dinner. 😉. Turned out to be a birthday. Boring.
 
So for dinner we went to Evol which is the healthy restaurant only open on certain days. Didn’t know exactly where it was so it was back up the hill for a bit. Found the sign then on the way discovered the adults pool which looked amazing.

Back to dinner. We ordered share entree then a main each. What we didn’t know was that it was also a small degustation with items not on the menu. I don’t do degustation well. I run out of room.

Breads. Warm and cheesy plus Indian dips.

Cucumber kombucha. Cucumber makes me burp.

Lettuce cups.

Coconut sorbet. Yum.

My meal was chicken. Tasty but by now too much.

MrP had Samui Seafood curry but not a real fan of the large octopus chunks.

We thought we were done. Phew. But nope. Coconut ice cream which was lovely.

So rather unexpectedly full we went down the stairs across the pool deck then back up one flight of stairs to our room.
PS botanist gin packs a punch. We had a can of tonic in our room that we used and a cup of ice from the bar which was down and up a flight of stairs. 😂
 
A couple more from breakfast today. Thought the honeycomb run off was clever.
Bakery.

After breakfast we booked the seafood bbq dinner and fire dance for Tuesday night and the Garden Tour and Thai cookery school for Thursday night. It sounds fabulous.

This afternoon we will grab a taxi to go to Chaweng Markets.
