Baan Kaeng Homemade Thai Cuisine
The kitchen here cooks Thai food the way a family would at home, not the way a beach-road menu thinks foreigners want it. That means dishes built from scratch, proper recipes, and seasoning that hasn't been sanded down. If you've been eating pad thai with ketchup in it for three days, this is the correction.
Prices sit in the mid-range bracket, which for what you get in Pattaya is fair rather than cheap. The room is casual and low-key, fine for eating alone and fine for a group of four. Don't come expecting a view or a design statement. Come because the food is the point. My advice is to ask what the kitchen recommends rather than defaulting to the dishes you already know, and to be honest about how much heat you can handle before it arrives.

Tips for Visiting Restaurants & Food
Learn the Spice Scale
Say 'mai pet' for no spice, 'pet nit noi' for a little spice, or 'pet mak' if you want it Thai-hot. Most cooks will default to a toned-down version for foreigners unless you specify otherwise.
Follow the Crowds
The busiest street stalls are almost always the best — high turnover means fresh ingredients and a recipe that locals vouch for. An empty restaurant at dinner time is a red flag.
Ice Is Safe
Factory-made tube or cylinder ice (used in virtually all restaurants and stalls) is made from purified water and is safe to consume. You don't need to skip the iced Thai tea.
