I just tried lunch at Thai Chi. It was pretty good. I can't remember what I had but it tasted Thai to me...the atmosphere is very relaxing, the service is superb. Not an overly extensive menu but most menus have too many choices anyway. A bit pricey, for sure. Not a place for me to eat every day but a great place for a treat.

sl- I stayed in Phuket town and rented a suzuki jeep. It takes less time to travel across the island than to get to the industrial park from Garveys.

Patong is too crazy for me...not bad to visit but I wouldn't want to live there. Rawai is more my style. I may try Koh Samui next time. I have friends there who can show me around.
