Surin Founding Father
Whist visiting some of my Wifes friends in Prakhonchai yesterday, I was informed that we would be stopping to visit another friend of a friend who had rececently opened a new resort on the 226 Buriram Surin road. It had a restaurant, and we would eat there I was told. Half heartedly I agreed, as I was hungry, but had been to these "so called resorts" before and had always been underwhelmed to say the least. Well I was in for a very pleasant surprise, this place is immaculate with a capital Imm. The place would seem to have been built on a money no object principle.
The Thai lady owner was not only beautiful, but also charming, with no hint of the usual Hi so, dripping with Gold, attitude that seems to effect the "new money" Thai's. This despite her obvious wealth. She showed us around the different rooms avaialble, the Restaurant, pool, fishing lake, and fuction room.
I have a penchant for old Ox cart's, and have three in my garden. They are bloody difficult to get hold of, this lady has fifty!! around the place sourced from Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia, these coupled with other old farm memorabilia were the icing on the cake for me. The Restaurant food was first class, and very reasonably priced. My photos are all taken after dark but will go back and get some daytime shots for sure.
Private seating area's next to the pool.
Lady owner at the top of the table. Upholstered chairs! and faux marble table tops.
