Once again, thanks for the welcome guys. I feel like part of the family and look forward to a few cold ones and getting to know you all better.
Raisuli,
Yes, that sounds like the place. The restaurant was nothing more than a lean to and a couple of table and chairs but certainly served up some great tucker. I remember i used to eat some kind of porridge type substance with boiled eggs in it for breakfast but I haven't seen it on any menu since. I stayed there in a 3 bed villa with 2 other mates and the manager used to sleep on one of the restaurant tables just waiting for us to return from a night on the town with one of the local girls in case we wanted something to eat or in case we wanted a seperate room. Those were the days, no bar fines (not at the places i visited anyway) and no joiner fees.
Interesting though regards your thoughts on what is on the site today. dogblower advised that Hyton Leelavadee is constructed on the site. i guess i will check it out when i am there in April. Whatever is there, i might spend a night or two there at some stage just for prosterity.
In 85 there was no such things as digital cameras so i only have a couple of pics of the place that i took with my old 35mm and i'm not computor savy enough to scan and reduce them to post them on here but if you have anything, i would love to see them for old time sake.
