One Pattaya restaurant that offers good food at a tremendous value is the Happy Buffet at the Apex Hotel.  It’s one of those all-you-can-eat buffets. Whether you’re in the mood for Western food, or you’d like to try out some different Thai dishes, the Apex serves up delicious entrées that delight any palette.

The most popular meal at the Happy Buffet is breakfast.  For a mere 110 baht you’ll get to graze at the 100-foot-long buffet counter until you’re stuffed.  The buffet opens bright and early at 7 a.m. and it usually starts to get crowded between 9 a.m. and 10 a.m.  The buffet closes at 1 p.m. It’s a popular place to bring your long-time date from the night before down for a nice breakfast sendoff.

The buffet comes complete with beverages including coffee, tea, orange and pineapple juice, as well as milk.

The Happy Buffet offers an entire selection of fruits, salads, and vegetables.  There is also a wide choice of pastry and bread.

Your Thai girlfriend will enjoy a choice of at least four Thai dishes, as well as a large cooker of white rice.

The offerings include the standard American breakfast items such as fried and scrambled eggs, French toast, pancakes, bacon, sausage, and ham.  They also have a chef on hand who prepares made to order omelettes.

The only downside that we could see was the fact that they only had two toasters available in the fresh bread section.  Toast is popular with almost all of the foreign patrons and unfortunately there is usually a waiting line for the toasters.

One successful strategy for getting toast is to head straight to the toaster as soon as you arrive at the buffet. Plunk in your bread, and then head on to the rest of the buffet.  Just about time your plate is full with other items, your toast will be popping up out of the toaster.

At 110 baht which includes your beverage, the Apex Hotel Happy Buffet  is the best deal in town on breakfast.

The Apex Hotel is located on Pattaya 2 between Soi 12 and Soi 13.
