			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The city meets this demand admirably with a plethora of venues dedicated to satisfying the needs of the hungry and thirsty. A large number of establishments are aimed specifically at tourists, while others continue to provide the same fare to the same Thai clientele that they always have. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>For lunch, fast food lovers will find the City Grill restaurant on Walking street a good call, with its excellent selection of burgers, hot dogs and similar fare, while Bob&#8217;s BBQ &amp; Grill makes some pretty awesome Wagon Wheel burgers and tasty barbecued ribs. In addition, a branch of the famous chain Subway is located on Pattaya Klang road and sells the usual impressive selection of hearty sandwich creations.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>For a lunch with a distinctly English flavour, Patâs restaurant on soi 3 is well -known for its fish and chips, pie and chips and Sunday roasts, while the Queen Victoria Inn on soi 6 has favourites like shepherd&#8217;s pie, ploughman&#8217;s lunch and Cumberland sausage with mash.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Come sunset, hunger will be creeping up on you again and itâll be time to find an evening dining destination. The selection in this category is a good deal wider than that of lunchtime venues, with many establishments only opening their doors for evening business including many Thai eateries of the roadside variety. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>The stalls of Thai food vendors are ideal places at which to find cheap and authentic local cuisine. As long as you donât mind the absence of competent English speakers and the grit and grime of the roadside setting, these stalls are great places to enjoy an evening meal.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>If you still want Thai food but in a more pleasant environment, then Somsak on soi 1 offer authentic cuisine at affordable prices, while Baan Thai on Central road presents a nouvelle cuisine approach to Thai food (and its prices reflect this). For dining alongside live performances, head for PIC Kitchen on soi 5 or Adam &amp; Eveâs at Sabai Jai Village, Sukumvit road.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>International options in Pattaya are plentiful and include French, Belgian, German, English, Italian, Mexican, Japanese and Indian. While international establishments are invariably run by Thai staff, the proprietors are generally foreign and on hand to oversee operations. </p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>Pattaya has a good selection of French eateries among which is Mon Ami Pierrot on Walking street and Au Bon Coin on soi 5 (the latter having the better reputation of the two). At Klein Vlaanderen on the Pattaya 2nd road customers can enjoy authentic Belgian cuisine, as they can at Patrick&#8217;s Belgian situated at the Diana Arcade. Italian food is best enjoyed at either Duilio&#8217;s on Central road or at Little Italy situated opposite the Royal Garden Plaza. <a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" href="http://www.1stoppattaya.com/hospitality/restaurants/"> Pattayaâs finest restaurants</a></p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>For a good curry of the Indian variety, Ali Baba on Central road or Sher E Punjab on Beach road should fit the bill, while Yamato on soi Yamato is a safe bet for Japanese cuisine. Daidomon at Big C and the Royal Garden Plaza also offer Japanese food although they have a chain-restaurant feel. Finally, if itâs tacos and chili you are after try out the Mexican cuisine at either the Tequila Reef on soi 7 or the Blue Parrot on soi 2.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>After dinner, the appeal of an ice cold beer or wine cooler at one of Pattayaâs watering holes may well encourage you to set off in search of the best spot at which to enjoy a pleasant drink. Depending on the kind of character you are after, you may want to take advantage of the cityâs abundant girly-bar selection, a booming scene which dominates the main drinking area known as Walking street.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>It is however possible to avoid the venues associated with this scene. Kilkenny&#8217;s Irish Pub, for example, is a great little place to enjoy a drink with likeminded individuals, as is the Bamboo Bar on Walking street. On Beach road, the Hard Rock CafÃ©, Hopf Brew House and Rosie O&#8217;Grady&#8217;s offer pleasant ambiences with no skin trade associations. For a pub with a traditional English atmosphere and beverages to match, try the Queen Victoria Inn on soi 6 of the Pattaya 2nd road, while Shenanigans, located on the same road, is a cheery Irish style venue.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>To be entirely sure of avoiding the riff-raff and not having to be accosted by flirtatious young Thai ladies, visitors are advised to seek out the bars at the cityâs respectable hotels such as the All Seasons on Pattaya 2nd road, Sheraton in Pattaya Hill, Royal Orchid Resort in North Pattaya and Marriot on Beach road.<a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" href="http://www.1stoppattaya.com/hospitality/bars/"> Best Pattaya bars</a> While these venues are unlikely to raise the roof, they do offer quiet and upmarket settings where drinks may be pricey but the atmosphere is anything but cheap.</p>
<p>&#13;</p>
<p>These hotels and others of a similar rating all have their own restaurants and itâs worthwhile considering enjoying a high quality meal of either Thai or international food in one of their dining suites before retiring for a relaxing drink in the bar.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Walt Disney World, Universal Studios, Sea World &#8211; Florida is the capital of fun when it comes to educational travel. Even meals in Florida promise more than just the normal opportunities. Venues such as Arabian Nights and Hard Rock Cafe are just a few of the restaurants that provide memorable dining experiences. These places also provide unusual educational offerings.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Producing a magical combination of fine dining, horsemanship, and legendary storytelling, the Arabian Nights Dinner Theater is focused around the marriage celebration of a prince and princess. Located in Kissimmee, a short distance from Walt Disney World, Arabian Nights features beautiful horses from around the world in world&#8217;s largest indoor equestrian center. Here, guests celebrate the birthday of a princess with daring equestrian stunts and colorfully-costumed riders in a performance that uses the latest technology in effects, sound, and lighting. Visitors are also treated to a bountiful meal served by palace servants. Guests even see The Black Stallion, courtesy of the Walter Farley family, author of The Black Stallion. Special educational programs are also available.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
When Universal Studios brought a new kind of theme park to Orlando in 1990, it encompassed more than 400 acres and brought Hollywood, television, and movies to life. That magic is still alive and well. Here, visitors take in an incredible array of rides, shows, movie sets, and attractions. On-site educational programs, as well as music performance opportunities are available to enhance the Universal Studios experience. The Hard Rock Cafe Orlando, adjacent to the Hard Rock Live performance venue, is the largest Hard Rock Cafe in the world, decorated with the world&#8217;s largest collection of rock &#8216;n roll memorabilia. The multi-level cafe serves up classic American cuisine. Hard Rock specialty merchandise is for sale in the gift shop.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Located in Downtown Disney at the Walt Disney World Resorts, the House of Blues combines southern cooking, live music, and folk art to create an original dining experience for student tours. Designed as an authentic Mississippi juke joint, the restaurant offers its popular Sunday Gospel Brunch, featuring an all-you-can-eat buffet complemented by live gospel performances. Tours of the restaurant&#8217;s art collection can also be arranged.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Sleuth&#8217;s Mystery Dinner Shows invite student group travelers to bring their investigative skills and appetite for an adventurous evening of whodunit. Each of the theater&#8217;s interactive dinner shows, performed by the cast at Sleuth&#8217;s, centers around a murder, and it&#8217;s the audiences&#8217; job to solve the crime. The evening begins with an introduction of the characters over appetizers and salad. After guests become acquainted with the colorful individuals involved in the story, the show begins, including a suspenseful murder. Over a choice of entre, participants use their deduction skills to discuss likely suspects, the motive, and how the crime was committed. After dinner guests may interrogate the remaining cast members. Following the mystery dessert, the murder is revealed.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Taking a journey back to the 11th Century, group tours embark on adventure and a dinner at Medieval Times in Kissimmee. Inside the medieval castle, guests get an unforgettable history lesson in the guise of jousting duels between knights on powerful stallions, thrilling swordplay, and a feast fit for a king &#8211; eaten with 11th-century utensils &#8211; your hands. The audience is encouraged to cheer for their knight while he competes in games of skill and accuracy. The Kissimmee location is the only one to also feature an authentic medieval village.</p>
<p>&#13;<br />
Travel to the Amazon without ever leaving the country. A visit to the Rainforest Cafe in Downtown Disney Marketplace combines a great meal with environmental education. Dedicated to the preservation of the rainforest, the restaurant utilizes its elaborate interior design to introduce visitors to the wonder and beauty of the rainforest. Surrounded by lush foliage and cascading waterfalls, guests dine as jungle animals, such as elephants and gorillas, come to life and thunderstorms boom in the distance. An on-site educational program is available to student groups which includes a safari through the cafe, focusing on endangered species and saltwater fish life.</p>
