Best Restaurant of 2008 contender
Telephone: 076 290450-1
Open: For lunch and dinner
Address: 249 Prabaramee Road, Patong. About 1.5 k from the Novotel towards Kamala, on the rise at the northern end of Kalim Bay
Style: Thai and International tourist treats
Price range: Not cheap but not excessively expensive, either. Chicken in pandanus leaves, 120 baht; Sea mussels in garlic butter sauce, 130 baht; stuffed pork in wanton, deep fried 100 baht
Specialty: Seafood mostly. Squid, blue crab, tiger prawns, whole fish. But there are western standards such as cheeseburgers, too (150 baht). plus set meals available for two.
What the management says: They say we have good food and the best view of Patong Bay
What Phuketwan says: Pan Yaah has one of the best locations on the island. From here, you can look back at a dreamier Patong. During the day, it's possible to see the tuk-tuks scurry back and forth around Kalim Bay and calculate how long it will be before the number of yellow ones overtake the red ones (563 years) or enjoy the jet skis making patterns in the water. From this distance, you can't hear the noise and they seem quite harmless. At night, all lit up, Patong looks special. And who could disagree? Pan Yaah is a big restaurant that does well from being in just the right spot. The food is pretty good, too.
How to find it: Head north from Patong, go past Kalim beach, then as you head uphill, Pan Yaah is tucked in on the left.
Parking: Two bays, one right beside the restaurant and the other along on the right-hand side of the road.

Eat regularly here..Great spot and certainly better value than Baan Rimpaa ..Not bad food and reasonable value...could improve as some dishes sometimes disappoint..probably over-faranged ! 7/10
