Almond meal pancakes,sugar free ice-cream, cheese dipped olives etc. The first in the world baby! ,Are you the guy from another planet? All this for 49 Baht with one staff member, for sure a carnivore (Thai bar girl), and eating most time food from a mae ka. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only rent to rich owners who own dozens of hundreds properties. This owner has few buildings and many houses + a 100 millions thb land to sell. Trust me, he is not the guy who will make any problem for 10000/thb month... He just wants easy 10000 to put gas in his cars... So no risk at all to rent this place, I am 100% sure, owner is not your usual idiot poor Thai who think that he can milk farangs... Seems to be Crown property ?!

Thian Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 I've seen those 49-59 steakhouses grow very fast, new branches all the time...but they also disappeared with the same speed. We went there once, i ordered a chicken steak menu plus a porksteak menu. Every menu had exactly 3!! french fries so i ordered more of those for 40 baht. That was fine but the issue was i had to wait for them. What i miss in BKK is good fish and chips bought along the road (not in a mall). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think cause of the ambience are buffet and set a fun mood for having a beer with friends and chat, they are always packed and I wouldnt say cheap compared to other Thai food. If you are set on a steak place, focus on the kids meals, parents will go where the kids are happy. How do you make kids happy? With a 49 Baht meal? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if you went to the manufacturers and asked them to print English lessons, geography lessons, etc on the roll of paper. Now when people walk down the shopping aisle at Big C and want to buy a few rolls, who's will stand out? You're welcome. Or print a smartphone on it and they will start chatting!

poanoi Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 (edited) so its an evolution thing to be more specific than big animal, but tbh evolution dont explain squat for me neither. maybe they see it as some sort of cannibalism Edited July 10, 2018 by poanoi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You didn't use the word lying, but you explained it. I know Indian friend's explanations on why Hindu's don't eat beef. I have worked in India before. I don't know it like a local, but I had a lot of time to sit by the Ganges on a sunday and in the evenings after work and discuss all manner of differences on my background and the local staff. I don't recall mentioning anything about evolution. You might be thinking of another poster.
