Day and Night, Momo Cafe, Courtyard by Marriott, Surin Beach, Phuket, Thailand

In taking the advantage of my Marriott Gold card for the dining benefit and making use of the complimentary dinner set at any Courtyard, this MoMo Cafe became my canteen.

1. the entrance. 2. MoMo Cafe have many table setting from poolside to the main hall. So you wouldn't find it too formalised.

3/4. good for the kids and Courtyard Surin and Kamala are good for families.

5. Momo on the main floor. 6. Italian herb bread with crushed olive. Pretty good.

7. Iced coffee (Illy). No doubt about the quality of Illy. 8. MoMo burger - THB260. Also good and I like it the way you decide how much veggie to go with the burger.
9. Wood grilled half spring chicken - THB220. The spring chicken is an imported frozen ones and it's a bit too frozen and kept for a long time the frozen smell was still there. They should put more rosemary to take that out. I then told the waiter about it and surprisingly, they got us something impressing us at night time though they weren't aware that we would come back.

10. OK, we made use of the dinner set voucher. You can choose Thai set or Int'l set with dessert and tea/coffee. Before the meal, we were asked for some drinks. There we had watermelon frost to cool off the heat from the afternoon. 11/12. at night.

13/4. wheat bread and crushed olive.

15/16. chicken and beef satay. Very nice. Not too burnt but aromatic. Very juicy inside.

17. the condiment with satay. 18. Tom Kha Gai. Very fresh coconut aroma but a bit hot.

19. Tom Yam Krung - also quite hot and quite surprising to taste such hot food at this kind of int'l hotel standard. 20. mixed veggie stir fried. Pretty nice and not too salty.

21. Pan fried sea bass with hot and sweet/sour sauce. Of course, when it said it's hot, it's really hot, but good with going with rice. 22. mango sticky rice. Now it's not the season for mango; so no complaint. The sticky rice is good though.

23. Iced lime tea. 24. the lobby.
