Don't agree about that. The food in Indonesia is every bit as good as in Thailand, in my opinion. In fact, it's very similar. And I personally like the food in the Philippines better. It's more like our European food, which suits me best. I prefer baked potoes and chips to rice and I don't particularly enjoy food that burns my mouth out. The food was so spicy, I almost starved during a week on a liveaboard in Thailand.  
But I have to agree that Thailand is a lovely country, even though the diving is nowhere near as good.
