yeah it not easy to setup production ready EKS cluster, i suggest you to use awsx package and configure first the VPC as you wish and later pass the vpc id and subnests to the Cluster resource

I feel your pain. EKS itself isn't great and bringing it up and down is very slow.

i can tell that i already configured some production ready EKS cluster if you want i can share some code with you
