So many restaurants we visited and so many we enjoyed. Papas house was special because of the atmosphere, the proprietor and the food. The atmosphere included an eclectic mix of antiques, exotic plants and wildlife. | |||

This is Matt and I at Papas House. Next is a pot of Butterfly Pea tea of Karens. The tea is blue like the flower but when it's mixed with lemon it turns purple. I think that's passion fruit on the end as a dessert. | |||

This is another favorite restaurant near the first school I taught at. The owner had a daughter who I taught science to for a semester. Some of the tables have a bright tile finish. There is a ramp to bring motorbikes into the restaurant. There are a couple of large ceramic pots with lotus flowers in them. | |||
