Fat Belly Pattaya: Recognised for Excellence

Not all restaurants have to earn a Michelin Star to be considered excellent.  One quick glance at the online reviews and ratings for the eatery, and you’ll see that there are more than a few people enamoured with the brand.  It’s not just the menu or the atmosphere which entices people here.  It’s the way everything is cooked and served!

A growing trend in Pattaya, and indeed Thailand in general, is a sense of ‘home cooking’.  Lots of local foodies and tourists alike are getting enthused about authentic, home cuisine.  Therefore, an increasing number of restaurants are straying away from processed or easy-cook recipes. Instead, they’re choosing to make plenty of dishes and treats from scratch.

You only have to look at the reception Fat Belly Pattaya has received on TripAdvisor to see how highly visitors rate it.  It’s received the coveted Certificate of Excellence!  What’s more, it has also been recommended on the popular tourist industry site Restaurant Guru.  That’s a great accolade and one which should put the eatery in good stead with the locals, as well as the competition.

An Impressive Menu

Regardless of what you may expect from a restaurant in Pattaya, the menu at Fat Belly is impressively diverse.  It’s also pretty surprising!  Whether you choose to sample their traditional dishes or something a little more international is up to you.

The cunning twists on international cuisine are something you need to check out.  Who would have thought that you could order sausage and mash from a restaurant in downtown Pattaya?  How about a Thai take on nachos?  This, pun intended, is only for starters.

Sample soups, Thai style kebabs and skewers, mixed grills, burgers and more.  The restaurant is also well-known for its impressive line-up of BBQ delicacies, meaning that if you like your meat sweet and tangy, you’ll be in hog’s heaven.

Fat Belly Pattaya is an impressive diner as it is so diverse.  While other Thai restaurants and pop-ups may offer mainly regional dishes, this is an eatery which isn’t afraid to think outside of the box.  Do make sure to take a look at their full menu online before you go.  Do also take in the fantastic bar here, with a selection of local drinks and twists on old favourites.
