Where Can I Buy Used Honda Click around 10.000 TBH
Sticky Rice Balls replied to Barley's topic in Chiang Mai
I doubt you would find a decent one for 10k Ive always bought Honda Dreams-95s for that 9000-10k They are workhorses and easy to fix...Not sure if the Mee Chok weekend motobike market is still going on-covid Otherwise the Motobike shop on Wulai rd right at Cm gate where sat walking street started--left side Guy named BON owns it--speaks english -that guy would know as that job is his life--Id say I have 10k and I need a Honda CLICK He has tons of bikes but tended to weed out older ones for newer ones but nice guy-----Chinese thai--wears glasses..."Bon" His mom owns it too I think and shes always nagging him for more cash on sales so If you find him pull him aside ???? The shop is next to the hospital--right side--cm gate--outer side to the left of Wulai rd..tons of bikes in a open shop Sidenote a rental shop would likely sell you one during slow covid times but not sure how dogged out those may be... -

Agreed--any good cook knows to use cheesecloth to "flavor" a soup and to remove it after--unlike thais...makes it so frustrating when eating thai soups

555 Yep I was a Chef in CNX for a Hiso market and I cooked live in store...I too remember the Heinz sauce and the "sweetness"..had to cut it with other options to balance it...same as the mayo--needing a western mayo(best foods) and the thai mayo(ugh)....thais and their sweet stuff!!! But the theory of the hot spots in your mouth--sweet-salty-spicy-sour makes sense for the condiments on a street stall shop--which makes the taste buds fire on all cylinders....but all about "balance"!

Would agree--pretty much financial for me and always has been --been in LOS since 2008 and return home to work but come here to spend it Housing Food options Healthcare So basic human needs which are way too $$$ in the states where ive been cooking for over 30+yrs I was even a Chef for Whole Foods Organic market--where I couldnt even afford to shop-but got to eat what i was cooking I like the thought of access for all in LOS....everyone can eat healthy--but have to "CHOOSE" to... I think of the locality..the rice, and effort to plant it--the fruit right off the trees--the local butcher shop--local markets and enjoy eating a simple grilled chicken(normal size) or pork steak with a side salad and fries for less then 2usd Vegetarian options, fruits I never tried back home or ones that are imported and $$$ and taste like <deleted> Only the rich can eat well in the states and they make it so easy to eat <deleted> food--thailand is just accessible to me for ready to eat options--fruit lady---soup from stock, slow roasted pork leg, fresh ground chilis for curries..etc, cheap veggies And where I am up north in CNX there is such a variety--indian-western-japanese-vietnamese-thai-mexican-burmese-etc--all affordable I recall coming home after first trip to LOS in 2008 and wanting thai food-spent 15usd in pad gra prow(basil chicken) and it sucked and was $$$ I lose weight without trying when i return to LOS and gain weight when i return home to the junky processed boxed <deleted> that is western diets for the poor As noted being culinary trained and a working chef, alot comes down to WHO is cooking your food, same as who is giving you a massage! ????
