Papa David's 2 - Coming to "The Dark Side"

[Gaybutton]

I had a pleasant surprise today. I was on my way home, on "The Dark Side," driving up Soi Khaotolo from Sukhumvit. I spotted a big sign, "Papa David's 2." It's the same Papa David's restaurant so popular in Jomtien. Now there will be one on "The Dark Side" as well. From the outside it looked like they'll be ready to open in about two or three weeks.

 

If you're not familiar with Soi Khaotolo, the easiest way to find it would be to go up Tepprasit Road to Sukhumvit. At the traffic light make a left and then get immediately into the right lane. Only a few yards up you'll come to a right-turn-only traffic signal. Make that right. That's Soi Khaotolo. Go up Soi Khaotolo, pass the railroad tracks, and then about 200 yards or so further up you'll easily spot the 'Papa David's 2' sign on the right.

 

Excellent! For those of you in the vicinity, now we not only have a Continental Bakery out our way, but very soon we will also have a Papa David's.

Great. Now you can eat TWO breakfasts every morning!!

 

If you had a choice, which would you prefer if you only had one choice?

When we were in Vietnam there was an American guy with his Thai wife staying at the same hotel. We got talking and he lives east of Sukhumvit and I mentioned "the dark side". he got a bit defensive about it. I was surprised.

Continental Bakery, although the Papa David's menu does feature some items that Continental Bakery doesn't have. But if I had only one as my choice, it would be Continental Bakery. Of course, once Papa David's 2 opens up, I'll have to give it a try to see how it compares.

 

By the way, those are not the only breakfast places available out here.

 

Personally, I rarely eat breakfast in the first place. When I do, most of the time I make my own at home. I would say I only go out for breakfast about once every two months.

I have no idea why. "The Dark Side" is probably the most rapidly growing and up-and-coming area of Pattaya.

 

It reminds me of the old joke people would say, many years ago, to those who they perceived as gullible: "Yes, and I have some swamp land in Florida to sell you." I wish to Christ I had bought it. Half of Miami and Ft. Lauderdale is now located on what used to be that very swamp land. Where I live, on "The Dark Side," you wouldn't even recognize it if you compared it to ten years ago. There was nothing out here. You should see it now. It doesn't take much imagination to visualize what it will be like and what will be available on "The Dark Side" of Sukhumvit ten years from now. How much you want to bet that within ten years, perhaps less, something similar to Central Plaza will be open, or at least under construction, out here on "The Dark Side"?
