Gaybutton Posted August 1, 2006 Posted August 1, 2006 Last night a close friend and I tried Monty's Enchanted Hut, located in the Jomtien Complex. As many of you know, there are three entrances to Jomtien Complex. To get to Monty's Enchanted Hut, take the first entrance as you are going toward the beach from town. If you know where the L'Olivier restaurant is, just keep going a bit further and you'll spot it. We were very pleased with it. Monty was there himself and we had a really nice chat with him. In a few days their show will be ready. Monty said the show will be "unlike anything you have seen in Pattaya." To prove the point, despite the fact that we were the only ones in there at that time except for one other customer, he had the boys stage one of the acts from the show for us. He is right. I have never seen anything similar in Pattaya. I don't want to spoil the surprise by revealing what we saw, but I'll bet most people will thoroughly enjoy it. We certainly did. We also loved the decor and the shirtless waiters. The service was excellent and the eye candy was beautiful. The food is bistro style. We ordered from the set menu. You get soup, salad, the main course, which was a choice of either salmon steaks or beef fillet, potatoes, and a vegetable medley. The potato choice on the menu was french fries. We preferred jacket potatoes (baked potatoes). Monty had no problem at all about giving us our potato preference. Dessert was a fresh fruit salad. Monty says everything is fresh. Nothing canned. That is true and it makes a big difference. Both of us enjoyed the food. My friend doesn't even like fish (he likes steak even less) but he enjoyed the salmon. I had the beef fillet and I enjoyed it very much. Everything was served piping hot and was deliciously flavorful. I told Monty that people will probably want to know if they can "off" the waiters. He said he does not permit "offs" at any of his establishments, but the waiters are free to do as they please after hours. He said that if anyone wants to make an arrangement with any of the waiters, he has no problem with that provided that such arrangements are during non-working hours. We enjoyed the food and especially enjoyed the eye candy along with it. I know of no other restaurants in all of Thailand at which the waiters are shirtless. The set menu is not always exactly the same as you'll see on their web site. Sometimes different choices are offered. If you like Thai food, which neither of us were in the mood for last night, others have told me that the six course Thai Banquet is outstanding. We certainly had no complaints about the price. The most expensive item on the menu is only 200 baht. For photos and the complete menu, have a look at their web site at: http://www.gardencentre.com.au/enchantedhut Quote
