PHUKET: A cook at a small restaurant in Koh Kaew escaped with minor injuries yesterday (Dec 13) after a hose from a cooking gas cylinder came loose and set on fire the kiosk where she was cooking – and set alight a nearby power pole that was starting to shower sparks.

 

Snr Sgt Maj Wiroj Noothong of the Phuket City Police was called to the scene, on Thepkrasattri Rd northbound, at about midday.

 

Police together with Koh Kaew Municipality firefighters and Kusoldharm rescue workers arrived at the scene to find local people together trying to extinguish the fire.

Not according to this OP, but if you go to the Ph News story, yes, it says that it was the cables and not the pole which was burning.

Now unless the cooking station was made of flammable material instead of stainless steel, how could it be destroyed.

Stainless steel melts at around 1,500C. Perhaps she was cooking some very hot food?
