Aux1010. I've PMd you.

If you live in Pattaya and have nothing to do one day then mooch on down to Bang Saray and take a look at the show house in the new row of beach houses built along the front. Ordinarily I would not suggest a visit to a show house because unless you're interested in buying it's a bit of a waste of time.

But these are a little bit special in their design. They could have built ordinary houses but they've made serious choices/compromises so that what's there is truly fantastic. Inspired by the British beach houses built in the Edwardian era they have a character that manages to be both classic and modern at the same time. I love them.

Afterwards you can go to the restaurant opposite and enjoy the deep fried mackerel with mango salsa, sweet and sour shrimp, vegetables in oyster sauce, steamed rice and choose from a huge selection of ice cream/sorbets for a perfect finish. That will cost about 600 baht.

Tired of boy bars. This is the perfect evening trip.
