• Buffet is amazing!!

Watch closely for the Wellness center sign on the highway as the driveway is on a curve on a hill. 076-330-600 Beautiful place set on the side of a hill. You look down the mountain to the ocean far below. Friendly efficient service > with one exception. I asked for water, on the bill was the ridiculous charge of 120b for the one small bottle of water! The waitress said that is correct. We looked at the menu. It showed a glass of water for 15b and a bottle of water that was 60b (already crazy expensive) then an “Italian” water for 120b. Why did you bring me a 120b bottle of water with no checking in with me? She said they were all out of the other water. I told her I did not feel comfortable with paying 120b for water and asked that the price be dropped. She said that she would not. What a disappointing end to what was a very enjoyable experience up to that point. I felt mistreated and don’t know if I will ever return, in spite of the good food. On to the food > Started with a dish called “Path” 250b – Exquisite taste!!! By far the best vegetarian dish I have eaten on Phuket Inland so far. Often I will find a really tasty dish that makes my mouth sing for the first few bites but then the novelty wears off. Not this dish, every single bite was a very pleasurable experience. It is made with pappardelle, garlic, king oyster mushrooms, and luohangue. Wow! Thanks to whoever came up with this dish! Spring Panini 170b (Not cooked on a traditional Panini grill, just a sandwich on a bun really) Multi-grain bun was light and tasty. Veggie ham, veggie mayo, lettuce, tomato, and onion. Very good but not near the level of excellence of our first dish. “Mindfulness” 220b – raw zucchini spaghetti, basil pesto, tiny traces of hemp protein, and almonds. It was okay. In spite of the water incident returned to try their buffet. What a spread!! Yellow Curry > superb! Ratatouille > yummy! Pumpkin Soup > sweet but very good Stuffed Tomatoes > okay Potato, Dill, and Olive Salad > delicious! Bean Salad > very good Papaya Salad > yummy Carrot Salad > good Cucumber Salad > okay Dragon Fruit Salad > okay Kimchi Salad > I am not big on fermented foods but this was very good Mango Salad > Wow! Wrap made with white flour > no thanks Pizza made with white flour crust > tasted good but where is the whole grain flour?? Potato Gnocchi > superb flavor but made with white flour Fettuccini made with white flour > okay
