  1. Agreed. Why would anyone want to discuss the spiciness of Thai food on a Thai forum full of foreigners 🤔
  2. 1 You either know or you don't. Yummmie 2 It truly must be the unofficial national dish of Thailand or at least most commonly eaten
  3. Eating local style food is half the price?
  4. Then there's this - Phad Krapao, egg B60 Essentially same ingredients: hamburger B120++ (no egg) Thai chilli's are not especially hot. I snack on them all the time like if wife is cooking or especially at restaurant and I'm super hungry - I eat the pik nam pla chilli's. I'm just talking about slowly nibbling not eating a mouthful. I especially love pickled chilli's which are not hot at all. These I will eat by mouthful. Always ok with Jalapeno even before I arrived here. I think the UK and N EU really suffer most from the cuisine
  5. Thai chilli's add no flavor so there's that. Tourists have limited knowledge give em credit for trying something different donchaknow It's the expat diet and long term backpackers that is shonky af Foreigners don't really eat Thai food. Maybe only if married lol. BBQ, Phad Thai, Fried rice, Khaosoi, Masaman, omelette, 711 sandwiches and the odd bowl of noodles or green curry. I can still do and enjoy five medium chilli's in som tam Thai. Proper Issan food can be withering and that's coming from someone that can eat spicy food. Getting older, I don't enjoy the heat as much. Sometimes my wife just forgets to cut it back a few chilli's and it's basically inedible for me. This afternoon just brought home minced sirloin and we had phad khapao. My absolute fave and full on go-to dish for decades. It's savory and aromatic it's great spicy but still enjoyable otherwise
  6. Then they don't differentiate. It's all just income. The point I'd made earlier with pension income is that in most cases the person will be filing taxes in home country as thresholds so low. Even if you combine super low pension with investments you gotta hit the taxable level - therefore, gotta file. Issue is moot. In most cases in US: social security is taxable as most pension income at federal level.
  7. If he's referring to teachers he would be correct with those numbers and opinions
  8. I see my mistake. On my phone** I needed to slide over to the fees. Do you see all those 'other fees' under implant? Those are commonly associated with the procedure. As someone has just verified, they paid US 2800 in CM for the procedure, 7k US. I think this is 1.5k over the top. My mother had this done for about 5500usd
  9. Apologies, derailing the thread.
  10. Oh, I'm going to be ignored by you. Sadness envelops my soul.
  11. I did that and sent you the link. There is a webpage stating fees but no fees. No fees nor hyperlinks in Firefox
  12. You're absolutely right. Don't mind me I've only lived in seven Asian countries in thirty two years. Traveled from Afghanistan to Raja Ampat and north to Korean DMZ. Spent extensive time in every South and East Asian country save for Brunei First set foot in BKK in 92. Please, tell me all about my ignorance of the country and region. Yes, CM is brokie and geriatric heaven.
  13. Yes, this is the target. Nevertheless, nothing to dissuade or assuage expat community not to worry - so, worry In the end, I think it will be much ado about nothing with tax treaties. I just don't fancy filing an additional tax form in half to deal with additional scrutiny.
  14. I've been able to make it deeper the website. When you do get to fees there's no fee there's no hyperlink. You may or may not know that many Dental operations and clinics will break out the cost for an implant. Therefore, the basic work for implant in some cases might be as low in some clinics as 50,000 k agreed. Then you have a number of other things that could be associated with the procedure. Finally, what is not included in that price is the crown which is often another 15 to 30,000. Fees no fees? https://www.indenteclinic.com/en/fee
