History
Hans Banziger, after graduating as a chef in Switzerland, has had a long career as a chef in Guernsey, Bermuda, South Africa, Florida, and Tahiti. In 1987 however came a turning point in his professional carer from being a chef to hotel management and he joined Dusit Thani Hotels and Resorts in Thailand. Staying for four years at the Dusit Laguna in Phuket, three years at the Santiburi Resort in Kho Samui,- plus five years as Hotel Manager of the Dusit Thani in Pattaya where he met his wife Daeng. Together in 1999 they decided to open their own restaurant called Paradise Restaurant which quickly became a preferred and popular dining choice among local expatriates and tourists alike and was for two consecutive years in 2005 and 2006 selected as one of Pattaya’s 10 best restaurants. (Thailand’s Best Restaurants published by Thailand Tatler). At that time they decided to expand and to open their own small resort, and the Swiss Paradise Resort was about to be born. In view of the success and popularity of their first restaurant they expanded the concept and taken it into the Paradise Garden Restaurant located the on the premises of the Swiss Paradise Resort.

Food concept
Hans says, because there is much competition and choice in Pattaya’s hotel and restaurant scene that we had to come up with something different. In addition to our menu we introduced every month a different special food promotion, and the top sellers of the various promotions mad it eventually into the a la carte menu. That way our menu was always updated according to changing consumer trends and preferences. During one of our promotion we introduced Exotic meats, and with that we also found a niche market and became known as Pattaya’s if not Thailand’s only restaurant specialising in Ostrich, Emu, Kangaroo & Crocodile, or various combination of those meats. Yet, for those who prefer something more familiar there are over 30 international specials including braised lamb shank, fillet of sole, duck al orange, steaks, rabbit in red wine sauce, cordon bleu and frog legs, to mention only a few as well as over 20 Thai favorites, vegetarian dishes and a children's menu. The latest introduction to the menu is a Swiss menu featuring over two dozen Swiss specials such as various Roesti and Cheese dishes including the famous Swiss Cheese Fondue.
