Maybe you’ve been out to Huai Wang Nong, a man-made pond just east
of Ubon Ratchathani airport. Not long ago it was mostly deserted but
now it is home to an ever increasing number of restaurants, resorts and
homes.
Lily On The Pond
One of the newest eateries is Lily Restaurant and Bar. A prodigal
daughter of Ubon and her Swedish husband return to Isaan after 20 years
away. Most of the time was spent in Phuket but they also lived in Sweden
for a few years.
As part of their new life back in Ubon Ratchathani they decided to
open a business out at Huai Wang Nong. The decision to use a new
restaurant as the foundation anchoring them at home was easy, as they
had operated an shop while in Phuket.
They named the new restaurant, Lily, for no reason other than they
like the name. I further gave it the name, Lily On The Pond. It is a
small quiet place that has the privilege of being near the water each
and every day.
What’s on the menu?
The offerings on the menu at Lily are mostly Thai dishes. However,
there are several westerner selections as well. Lily Restaurant might be
the only place you can find Swedish meatballs in Ubon. Along with the
meatballs you can also find Fish & Chips, Cordon Bleu, Steaks and an
assortment of salads.
The promise the proprietors will make to you is you will get good
food at a reasonable price. The environment will be clean and pleasant.
You can enjoy the view of the pond while you enjoy your lunch or dinner
with your companions.
Lily Restaurant in Ubon is open daily from 11:00 to 23:00. It is
small open air structure, nicely decorated. There are tables outside as
well if you prefer.
Sweet looking bar at Lily
There is no public transportation that runs at Huai Wang Nong so when
you drop by Lily you will need your own transportation or get a taxi or
tuk tuk. Two songtaew lines run close but walking would be required.
I have eaten there several times and always enjoyed my meals. You
should go enjoy a lunch or dinner there soon. Try out the menu and say
hello to welcome some new Ubon Ratchathani residents
