The Restaurant at Paresa Resort Phuket

"The sprawling hillside property also includes the Mediterranean restaurant Diavolo"

"Paresa’s three restaurants, all with ocean views (of course), match the accommodations in wow factor"

"Two restaurants, one Thai (Talung), and one Italian (Diavolo), share one large space that encompasses a sea-view deck built around banyan trees"

"Two on-site restaurants and a cooking school offer gourmet fare"

"And should you feel inspired to use the kitchen, daily cooking classes and weekly demonstrations are provided by head chef Ryan Arboleda, who also runs the resort’s two restaurants that serve Thai or Mediterranean fare"
