Veranda Restaurant in Phuket - Russian cuisine and Thai adapted
The proposal to visit a Russian restaurant in Thailand (and in Phuket, in particular) usually divides tourists into two categories. The first ones laugh «I haven't had enough borscht at home?» , and the second are moaning with happiness «God, finally a normal meal!». Moreover, the first category easily passes into the second one after a week of tom-pits, pad tays and muu-pings. Veranda owners reacted to the timeless holivar with a simple decision - to take the best from both cuisines. Veranda Restaurant in Phuket is a successful combination of Thai and Russian menus in one room. This is the case when chili fans and dumplings bored can eat at the same table. Simultaneously.

Veranda Restaurant
This establishment can be called a Russian restaurant conditionally, because the menu includes not quite traditional Viennese schnitzel with French fries, Bavarian sausages or lasagne. The menu of the Veranda restaurant in Phuket is a mix of the most popular dishes from around the world, including our dumplings, dumplings, cabbage rolls, pancakes and other names that caress the ear and stomach of a Russian person in a foreign land. From Russian, there is still a bearable «great and powerful» from some waiters and - cartoons that are played on a large monitor for the kids. By the way, there is a separate children's menu for them on the first page..
Dishes of Russian and European cuisine are at the level of seafood dishes, but this is traditional for any foreign country and personally to me the price tag did not seem to be somehow over-bullied or unfair. Veranda Restaurant is a place where Russian dishes are prepared practically without deviating from traditional recipes. Knowing the problems with Thailand's products in this regard, where the flour is not the same, and the salt is different, and you will not find a suitable mayonnaise, I declare that the quality of our dishes at Veranda is more than worthy. Plus - they offer set meals, where small portions, but generally enough for a full snack. In the heat, in principle, you don't eat much.
Veranda Thai cuisine is slightly adapted for compatriots who are not ready for the true power of the dragon and cry like children if Tom Yam is made for them «like thai people spicy». So chili is added to Thai dishes quite a bit, like in a Thai kindergarten, and it comes to people «with a bang». As well as dishes from the grill, which are prepared from the heart and are obtained from the chef very tasty. Veranda restaurant in Phuket is almost the only place where you can eat barbecue, which is Real Barbecue, and not sour-hot-sweet meat with a smoke aroma.

I took myself a cutlet, mashed potatoes and kvass :)
The room is air conditioned, which is good news. The tables are separated from each other by partitions and in general the interior is not Thai, but closer to European. Although I don't suffer from Russian food, it was fun to go in and eat something familiar from childhood. Moreover, my friends went there and we met there. Puree and cutlet are as they should be, kvass is also ok.
Information to visit
Opening hours of the Veranda restaurant in Phuket: from 12 to 22. The earlier, the fewer people, and in the evening there are such options that you will be offered to sit down with the already accommodated guests. The place is popular, people have trod a wide path, so you have to be more democratic and reduce your comfort zone. If necessary, you can order food from the Japanese restaurant Tokio Seafood across the street from Veranda. You should not come to the restaurant with your alcohol, which, however, does not stop some simple-minded tourists, who can shout to the waiter across the hall and pour water into a glass under the table.
The restaurant has underground parking, but it is used only for VIPs and for the needs of the restaurant. Since the street is one of the busiest, it can be difficult to park cars, so look at the place 100 meters to the right of Vernada - on the territory of the Karon temple (except Tuesday and Friday when the market starts here). There is also paid parking near the entrance to the temple. Alternatively - drive near the Family Mart, well, opposite the Veranda itself or Tokyo - if you arrived by scooter.
