Oops, sorry Mr. CC.

Note to self:

Don't post:

1. When in a hurry

2. Without the specs. on.

Great to see you and your lovely family. You now have your own pizza expert at home! The soft drinks were a real treat for an English soft drink enthusiast. I look forward to some more.

Until 31 March, buy one large pizza (30cm) and get free a can of either Leo, Chang or Archa.

These are the large pizza prices, all cooked in a wood fired oven:

Marghareta - THB170
Hawaiian     - THB200
Salmon       - THB260
Bacon         - THB200
Mushroom   - THB200
Vegetable    - THB200
Salami         - THB220
Seafood      - THB250

Optional extra toppings or invent your own mix.

18cm pizzas are also available.

Top Cafe is also renowned for its very extensive and reasonably priced Thai food menu.

Here, too, are some examples from the Western food menu:

Fish, fries and peas                                   - THB130
Pork chop, fries or mash, peas and gravy - THB160
Pork steak, gravy and salad                      - THB89
Beef steak, gravy and salad                      - THB99
Burger and fries                                         - THB110 with onions and cheese extra
Beef or pork spaghetti bolognaise             - THB99

Unbeatable!

It's advisable to book ahead for tables after 6.00pm

I should add a reminder that Top Cafe offers also a range of hot and iced coffees, brewed from locally roasted quality Arabica beans, smoothies and alcoholic and cocktails - all at very reasonable prices. The menu is the most extensive in the area.

Most dishes are available for take-away.

Nookie Bear (Paul) delivers Western food to Top Cafe for clients by arrangement. There is also a range of locally made bread and pasties available to order.

In addition to Thai customers Top Cafe has a steady and growing foreign clientele and its reputation attracts travellers from many continents who are passing through Pak Thong Chai.
