Carol, La Playa didn't have a bo bun nem salad two weeks ago. I love that salad from Dreams so would have ordered it. They had a Thai Beef Salad but it was different than what was served at Dreams. They do offer the same fried Thai spring rolls which are just as fabulous. The beef salad was also very good just different.

We used the beach and ate there 4 days of our second week on the island. Always a pleasure to see Bruno and meet his new staff (new to us.) They were awesome as was Bruno's business partner, Thomas.

David rarely gets off the beach to eat and the fact that he joined me three times up on the deck says a lot for food and service as he typically would rather lay on the lounge chair or go in the water than take time away from his sun bathing/water fun. This is what he likes to do.
