  1. Of course you had been giving anyone who complained, rightful or not, a big serve of spit, as that is the persons you are. No manner, and no respect for your customers. Horrible way of doing business. About the information above, you took out a piece of my post and replied to another or it just means that you lack class totally.
  2. You are totally missing the point I had from start. That is that food should be served and cooked in the right way. Not that any of the people should conform to me. Having an opinion does not make people change. Don´t you know that?
  3. The problem with the adjustment, is that they change the flavor spectrum to suite a broader amount of diners, as they otherwise would be considered serving to spicy food. Everything else they adjust, only serves a positive purpose for the diners. As serving a full table at the same time is standard and culinary norm internationally seen, you should not need to ask for that. You should be granted such respect automatically. After that, you just take all other points and make them disappear. As I said, you would not answer. And this has nothing to do with farang rules. If so, do you also agree with below: Thais do not have to drive careful to lower the astronomical death toll on the roads. There is no need to fight corruption as that´s a part of the culture. Freedom of speech is not necessary, as this is a part of Asia and it should be like that.
  4. Yes, based on your reply, I have a couple of questions. Let´s see if you can answer them this time, as you invited them, or are you going to talk rubbish around them? 1. Where did I disagree with that different restaurants have different protocols? Of course that can have to do with how and what to eat the food with for an example. However, it has not to do with showing respect for the diners. One way to show that respect, is to serve all food at the same time to diners at the same table, or who came together. 2. What have all that you reply with to do with, for example, getting appetizers before main courses? In Thai cuisine, there are not much appetizers, as they usually eat all at the same time. 3. If Thai people run a restaurant serving European food, should they not follow the same rules like other nations do? 4. What did you clear up this time? Your own problems with understanding, as you so clearly mentioned before?
  5. Sad to break it to you, but it is true. It´s actually a post and comment based on culinary facts.
  6. The thing is very simple here, as there are ground rules foe how to serve food world wide. It just doesn´t cut it to say that is not how it´s done here. Dining and restaurants are hospitality businesses, which have a certain code for professionalism. If diners at a table order food at the same time, they shall also receive their food at the same time, so that they can enjoy their dinner together. if the diners at the table order appetizers, main courses, side orders and desserts they should be served: Appetizers Main courses + side orders Desserts Anything else is to be seen as a bad service seen from the perspective of international level. Sure, if Thailand doesn´t want to be seen as a country who cares about their visitors and customers, that will be totally up to them. However, it can never been seen as a good service from owners, chefs or other restaurant personal who cares for there diners culinary experience. Same if you order a certain dish, with a certain which how it should be cooked, and it arrives as something that is not cooked that way, you will have the right to send it back. Sure, if you go to a very low quality restaurant out in nowhere, you might need to have more tolerance with certain mistakes, but you should not need to. I also know that we are all different, in the way how much we accept and what we are reacting on. That is also up to the specific individual. However, to get food served in the wrong way, order and/or have it served without being properly cooked can never be excused with that´s the way they do it. It´s just very poor respect for diners and only a wish that they eat as quick as possible, pay and get out.
  7. Yes, they are! But that is only when they are cooked to perfection. Almost always measured in countries with high quality food standards and diners who know the way of eating different food and in what order. After all that, it will also be very stupid to place Italian and French cuisine at same level as the others, as we are talking about two pillars in the culinary world. That was the best news I have ever heard. Please do! have a nice time wherever you chose to go. Thank You! Have you ever eaten together with people in a restaurant? Are you aware of that people order and/or like different things. There is a reason for that, and it has to do with that they want to eat what they order. It is totally normal to serve food in the right order and to serve all at the table at the same time. Just here they are not willing to, or can´t, understand or just to ignorant to see to such things.
  8. His mother tells he had been drinking heavily that evening, but the police found no drugs in his system. Apparently they are not aware of that alcohol is a drug. Maybe they even forgot to test him for that. 🤣
  9. So, Mr. Chock was not man enough for Ms. A. None of them are parents enough to care for the child. Mr. Chock is a fragile man who can´t take or understand rejection, while Ms. A runs away from her shared responsibilities. Sad how young people end up in such problems, with no understanding of reality and consequences of their actions.
  10. First, of course I believe it´s a scam. However, where is the proof. Have they checked it´s fake gold, or is it only missing proper stamps? Seems like they can never tell a story in full.
  11. Something she could have done in home, instead of travelling to Thailand to steal cosmetics.
  12. SMT System for Managing Automated Retail Funds Transfer Service for interbank funds transfer via online order submission PWD, have no clue, seems like no info to be found. KPWD is an account code from the Government of Karnataka.
  13. There are different levels of complaint. As you post, food is not to your liking. That, does not necessarily mean it´s anything wrong with it. That can mean taste, consistency etc. However, if you can show and prove that the food is undercooked or overcooked, not fresh and so on, then you have the right to complain. The bad thing is the reaction from some Thai´s, who live in a culture where they consider themselves perfect and must be without fault. That once again create the face issue, and as you complain they are losing face. There are different way to complain about food. To just say straight to their face that is bad and wrong, does collide with the cultural norms. Here in Thailand, it´s better to with a low voice or a wink of the hand politely make them attend to your issue. instead of telling them it´s bad , uneatable or wrong, just ask them to look and assume that they have made a minor mistake, and ask them to kindly tell the chef to take care of the issue.
  14. Yeah, the rest of the world now live in reality. Something they have missed.
  15. As it is a horrible accident, I can not for my life understand why they are trying to make it more important just because a police officer was involved. however, I agree with @billd766 post above.
  16. Ok, I was talking about today´s reality. So, the answer the last 5 years might differ, right?
  17. Is that your opinion, or has it been confirmed? 😉
  18. Yeah, life moves in peculiar ways. ❤️
  19. Definitely not! Just that you have a weird view of the meaning.
  20. Yes, sometimes it is, sometimes not. Depending on the driver. Many just refuse to go lower or use the meter
  21. He probably does, as the intelligence level points at that.
  22. Yeah, because it´s easy to say that for people that have no intelligence at all. It´s just to feel sorry for them.
  23. You are a very delusional guy. Still you don´t know the meaning of sexpat, and just make it suit your own purpose for babbling BS. Now explain, little MalcolmB, how can I be a sexpat, just because I am married to a Thai woman? She did not work in a bar or as a freelancer. I moved to Thailand more than 10 years before I met her. How can you be a sexpat, just because you prefer a woman from another country than your own? Now try to answer that, instead of mumbling some incoherent BS.
  24. 1. Depends on if you have one or many. 2. Guess you will have to read up on the meaning of the expression sexpat, as it depends on if they are faithful or have numerous encounters on the side. That´s because you still do not know the meaning of the expression sexpat.
  25. Exactly. That´s the reason for my sarcastic post above.
