We Had A Quiet Day Indoors,

but in the evening a treat,

 the Aroi Pub Resto, we have been to many times before, has open a new restaurant on Thepprasit Road, Soi 8,

  called the Amber,

I am not sure if this menu is just for this evening or every night, in any event a nice selection to choose from,

we were greeted by Peter the owner and a plate of freshly baked bread with blue cheese butter,

 Diana chose the seared scallops, 

 whilst I went with the sauteed tiger prawns,

  'Cheers!',

 Diana had an orange juice,

  then a real delight, we each had a complimentary marzipan cherry, dipped in Belgian chocolate and dusted with coconut and peanuts, we both could have had a few more of those, they were delicious!

  on to our main courses, 

 Diana chose the Greenland halibut, 

  a lamb shank for myself,

 the meal was excellent, we were both full to bursting, at the moment as the restaurant is only a few days old, Peter does not have a full dessert menu but there are a few not yet printed options,

  Diana could not eat another thing but when I heard they had a marzipan and almond tart, I just had to force myself! it was so nice,

 the restaurants card,

and map, I choose a bottle of red wine, Diana had two orange juices, the bill came to just over 2,000 baht which we thought was reasonable, especially that it was a proper bottle of wine that I ordered, not a cheap out of the box fruit juice as some restaurants serve by the glass and I normally drink at home! the restaurant is nicely laid out with linen table clothes, very comfortable chairs and pleasant non-intrusive back ground music, given the success of the Ario, and I can only think that it will be the same here, last night there was plenty of spare tables with just 9 diners, plus ourselves, there is inside and outside dinning areas, but just in case in the future it might be wise to book a table, 

by now it was late, so when we arrived home it was feet up and a nightcap, for two episodes of Dickensian and with that we were then off to bed.

Out For Sunday Lunch,

so it was glad rags on,

 Diana all smiles,

 as We made our way to the Aroi Pub Resto,

 but before going inside I just had to take a picture of this beauty, a Triumph Bonneville T100, would I like one? Yes Please!

  into Aroi, a nice selection of starters,

 with the ones on the extreme left and right new since our last visit here,

 for the main courses cauliflower cheese and roast potatoes,

 sweetcorn and carrots to chose from,

 the selection of meats were a choice of ribs and chicken,

 pork or lamb,

 Peter behind the carvery, gravy and soup of the day, lobster bisque,

 there is also a poc-poc counter for anyone with a hankering for a Thai flavour to their lunch,

and a selection of desserts, ice cream is included in the 349 baht 3 course Sunday carvery,

 Diana's starters,

   'Cheers!',

 after the starters we all went for a bowl of the lobster bisque,

 on to main courses,

 for Myself sweetcorn, roast potatoes and lamb,

 pork nuggets and ribs for Diana,

 We all finished with a selection of ice cream,

if you want to try the Aroi, just look out for this sign on Sukhumvit on the left, after passing Makro on your right, turn into Soi 89,

go over the railway crossing and after a few hundred yards Aroi is on the right hand side with parking opposite, arriving home with Mr. Tony we watched a couple of movies,  

then later in the evening a real surprise for both of us, Diana had cooked up some German sausages for a late night snack, delicious, We all watched another movie before saying our goodbyes to Mr. Tony, for us it was then a few quiz shows and We were soon off to bed.

We Were Out For Lunch,

as it is Sunday,

 so glad rags on,

 and we were off with Mr. Tony to the Aroi Pub Resto,

 I had a quick look at the starters,

 and said hello to the ever smiling Peter,

 the poc-poc station,

 starters for myself,  

'Cheers!',

 we were joined today by Jim, 

 and Cher, 

 the boys,

 and the girls,

 Diana was hungry!

I decided on a slice of pork and one of lamb,

 for dessert I chose a home made rhubarb pie with ice cream,

which was delicious, the Sunday buffet including soup and ice cream is 349 baht per person, but there is a small extra charge for the pie, 

if you want to try the Aroi, just look out for this sign on Sukhumvit on the left, after passing Makro on your right, turn into Soi 89,

go over the railway crossing and after a few hundred yards Aroi is on the right hand side with parking opposite, arriving home with Mr. Tony we watched some Top Gear and after thanking him and saying our farewells it was feet up for another couple of episodes and then for us we were off to bed.
