Thank you !

Thank you for the thali, I will try it there.

About Vietnamese food, is Vientiane restaurant a vietnamese restaurant ? where on the dark side exactly ? 

Thanks again.

Hello, how much do you pay your vegetarian Thali around Pattaya ? And where ? Thanks.

Hello,

True. Since lazada was bought by the Chinese, they are flooded with loads of Chinese rubbish. Multiple pages of the very same crap cameras with prices from 800 baht to 2800 baht for the same rubbish. Better buying on amazon or be very selective on eBay, avoiding stuff coming directly from China an both instances.

Funny, I can't san't stop laughing, as if Amazon was better ! Full of fakes and knock off exactly like lazada. The problem is not sellers, it's customers who have no idea how to choose.

In a hot country like Thailand, one problem with the cheaper dashcams is they use a built-in battery for when there is a loss of power. In a baking hot car, batteries are much more likely to fail than the capacitor you find in more expensive models.

Ridiculous statement read everywhere but wrong. Dashcam under sun and powerbanks under sun for years, and still no problem. Stop repeating what you have no idea about.

Which part of my post was not clear to you, I wrote, " The G1W sold on lazada is not the same one that is sold on Amazon, a quick read of the instruction manual confirms this is a Chinese knock off - mine lasted two weeks"!!!

You just don't know how to choose a correct seller. I also bought it on lazada 2 years ago and still no problem.

I don't think there is a huge demand for tortilla Espanola in Pattaya.

Agree to disagree about local Mexican.

 

Tastes are subjective.

 

Why, do you think that there is a huge demand for anything ?

And if someone is smart enough to explain to people who know nothing what is a tortilla, then more people will like it and eat it. People just eat what is giver to them. If it's given the smart way, with correct marketing and advertising.

There used to be a "Tapas" restaurant in Jomtien Complex with some Spanish choices. Not  that it was exceptional but it did fail. I suppose it's true you need a core base of nationals to support most national cuisine restaurants here. With exceptions of course. There would still be scads of Italian restaurants here even if there were no Italian tourists or residents, but they wouldn't be as good!

 

A continuing mystery to me is that there isn't even one (in my opinion) "decent" Mexican restaurant in town. I think there are enough Americans to support at least one "decent" one. 

Your idea of decent is extreme, so many acceptable Mexican.

Nobody cares that the food is perfect, and actually most people understand nothing, this is why you won't the perfect Mexican in your idea.

By Spanish omelette I'm assuming you mean tortilla Espanola which is neither an omelette in the usually understood sense or a tortilla in the Mexican sense.

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_omelette

 

I've seen it sold in the deli case at Foodmart Jomtien (not saying it's good or authentic, don't know) and also Natans French restaurant in Jomtien at least used to have it. Not sure about now. When I tried it, it was not authentic in the Spanish style as butter was used instead of olive oil, which didn't work for me. 

 

I'm also interested in a restaurant version that does it authentically.

 

 

The one at foodmart is the real thing and is so good.

But don't you agree that it could be an interesting dish to sell at many places, for Thai and farang ?

it seems that you have problems to login on the whole internet if you still don't know that nobody with a brain will use courier companies anywhere in the world...

Hello, where to eat a Spanish omelet around Pattaya ?

Something so easy, that anybody can cook and that even Thai can enjoy, why not more Spanish omelets available in Thailand ? I will put this on the the lack of brain and creativity of most restaurants owners, but I could be wrong :-)

Sure sign of a weak relationship or weak personalities sending flowers to the office to garner attention from gf's co-workers. Does she not have an actual home address? Send her gifts at home not the bar she works in. So tacky.

True that it's a bit ridiculous to send anything to office.

Try Bangkok personal shopper, I use it to deliver gifts and flowers.

Thank you. Even Thai EMS is not safe to Cambodia ? Which courrier do you usually use ? For clothes and food.

Hello,

When sending goods to Cambodia and Philippines, do you usually get hit by customs or is it as easy as Thailand to never pay any customs fees ?

What is your experience ?

Thank you.

Well, so much for http://www.thailandblacklistcheck.com

 

 The website you were trying to reach is temporarily unavailable.

It's down now, not sure if the owner is scared to attract media or if too many of us visited it and broke the server ?

Poor little cat, you are devastated... and what about people to whom shiiit happens without doing anything wrong ? Stop being ridiculous !

"more of a warning to others not to overstay "  : thank you, but some of us have a brain.

So you just had an illegal business and suddenly made it legal ? Why other people make it legal from the start is beyond my understanding...
