WE HAVE RENOVATED OUR BUNGALOWS!

• Wireless high-speed internet connection is now operational on our premises. No longer do guests with laptop computers need to hassle with noisy and ineffectual internet cafes. Hangout in your hammock while surfing the net, e-mailing friends—or even getting some work done.
Best of all – IT IS FREE for guests staying with us !

All bungalows have:
• Mini refrigerators
• Working desk.
• Your own hammock on your balcony.

Our Sea View bungalow has hot shower and 4x3 meter balcony, big glass sliding door.

For more info check out OUR BUNGALOWS.

Many of our cooking “students” have commented: “This is the best and most beautiful food we have had on Koh Lanta—and even in Thailand. Why don’t you have a restaurant?” So, we decided to take that advice and started our own small beachfront restaurant last year with very good feedback.

Starting November 2007 you can also enjoy a meal or cocktail in our newly built Tree-Top restaurant, where you can relish the sunset breeze while peeking at what our cooking “students” are creating down below.

The Time for Lime restaurant will serve dinner every day except the first of every month, from 6 p.m.-10.30 p.m. We will have a daily “surprise menu” in addition to a small fixed menu.

For more info check out OUR RESTAURANT.

You can now enjoy a longtail boat trip with a REAL local fishing sea Gypsy,  captain Bow (the husband of Kor: one of the girls who work here)
He will take you along the west coast of the Island.
- You can see and stop by 6 different beaches, enjoy the swimming and the sun
- You do your own squid fishing (Mr. Bow knows where to fish)
- Enjoy delicious thai and fusion food prepared by Time for Lime, packed in organic banana leaves and served in coconut bowls (no stair-o-foam box with fried rice here)
- Chilled Italian wine and beer is available to purchase on the boat for a reasonable price.
- BBQ the squid when returning to TIME FOR LIME, plus a crash course how to prepare fresh squid and make a spicy sea food sauce, that accommodates the squid – totally yummy!
- Water, fruit and of course safety gear is on the boat. (children under 4 years is not allowed, sorry)
We will offer:
DAY TRIPS
SUNSET /  EVENING TRIPS
- Price 1100 THB PP, minimum 4 people. Maximum 6.
- Special requests are accommodated, e.g.. Trip to Phi –Phi, Ko Ma, Beach Cooking Class.

For more info EMAIL US.

A relaxing, and almost meditative, experience.
Location and time: Time for Lime beachfront, 4 p.m. to 6 p.m., while enjoying the sunset, best accompanied by a glass of chilled wine… or maybe a Mojito?
Cost: 600 Baht.

For more info EMAIL US.

Again after many requests from our guests (“where is your cookbook?) I have finally managed to realize that dream. A contract has been signed with the publisher CAPPELEN in Norway for the Norwegian version of the cookbook. An English version is also due out in 2008 under my own direction. Publishers are more than welcome to show interest in this, or versions in other languages

The TIME FOR LIME book will feature a large range of recipes, from good, authentic Thai dishes to refreshing Fusion dishes, all contributed from TIME FOR LIME, our neighbors and friends. The book will also include stories about our guests, staff, adopted dogs, and perhaps funny memories similar to your own from your visit to Thailand.
 
The book will also be a helpful guide for those who have not yet had a chance to visit “the land of many smiles,” both food-wise and culturally.

So, if I get my way, it will not be just another traditional cookbook.

If you have any comments on this concept, or you are interested in the book, please e-mail me at Time for Lime so I can send you availability and ordering information.
