DINING OUT

Fondues - Filling and Fun

It has been some time since the Dining Out team dined with Swiss restaurateur Hans Banzinger. 10 years ago, Hans started the Paradise Restaurant on Second Road becoming very well known in Pattaya as the place for exotic meats, with Hans preparing emu, kangaroo, crocodile and ostrich. However, a couple of years ago, Hans took over a small garden restaurant and resort on Soi 16/2 Pattaya-Naklua Road, winding down the Second Road address as the lease began to run out.
