Disappointed. Mostly salad and meat content really low. Is that the same even at Taco Bells in America?

Lame. Don't know what all the fuss is about then.

 

I mean McDonald's aren't the biggest burgers but at least you are satisfied after a McDs

After any ordinary McDonald's burger my reaction is always a severe lack of satisfaction and "yeuk, why did I bother?"

And yet they are doing a roaring trade on our soi.....anything up to 10/15 Grab bikes sat outside at any one time.

I've found all the fast food to taste better in Thailand than in Canada and is way cheaper too. Mcdonalds, KFC, pizza hut, burger king, but have yet to try tacobell since I don't really like anything there.

Ever since TBT dropped the pork choice from their menu, I've basically stopped going.

 

For me, their ground beef is tasteless and has no beef flavor or texture that I can discern. And I don't much care for ground chicken tacos or burritos, especially from TBT.

 

And of course, still no frijoles...   No, hardly any resemblance at all!!  ????

Wow Canada must be expensive. I think with the exception of KFC, everything is either similar or cheaper in Europe.

We must be considered civilsed now.

Taco Bell.

I live about half a block from a Taco Bell and have never been there.   I read the posts on this board from people getting all excited that they were in Thailand so I decided to give it a try.  I can't understand why anyone would get excited about eating that garbage anywhere, much less in Thailand.

 

To me, Taco Bell in Thailand is nothing like TB in the US. Here in the LOS TB is bland, small portions and overpriced.  I tried it once here and that was enough to show me I won't be a regular customer.

That's probably because you are in Thailand eating incredible tasty food.  Not in the US where Taco Bell is considered a delicacy by murican standards.  I could see the beef options tasting being better in the US but not the chicken.

typical meal at fast food is $10-$15 in canada for 1 person, ie big mac combo 

Their menu seems sparse compared to Taco Bell in the U.S. .  And priced higher from what I've seen.  I only eat the TB vegetarian stuff, which is OK and reasonably priced.  I've eaten more bean burritos than I care to remember.  One burrito and about 15 packets of their hot sauce (which isn't hot.)

Burger King much better. At least in Spain.

What's ironic is that even Tim Hortons tastes better in Bangkok. My favorite is yuzu donut.

 

I find that McDonald's v doesn't taste better than in Canada. The burger meat is better and you can choose really awesome salad instead of fries.

Yes of course we mericans consider TB fine dining ????

I'm curious as to how you can grind chicken meat so fine and why you would want to do that with prime chicken breasts - I assume they are using prime chicken breasts.....................

 

Also there is no point in going in and ordering as there are always grab bikes waiting and likely you will have to wait while they compile party sized orders for one or more grab bikers.

I haven't tried tim hortons yet but i'll have to give it a shot now that you've mentioned its better, hard to when theres dunkin donuts and krispy kreme haha, tim hortons is always on the flash deals for grab 

 

I didn't really try the burgers yet from mcdonalds, mainly oreo pie's/nuggets/fried chicken, a 10 piece nugget combo in canada is like $10+ with taxes, absolutely absurd how much mcnuggets cost in canada.

Oh yes... Chicken is really cheap in Thailand compared to Canada.

 

 

 

so over-seasoned... I really hated it.

 

Taco Sunrise is much better in Bangkok.

havn't really ate at a&w too often in my lifetime, is that the place with the horse radish sauce?

 

carls jr is pretty decent, don't have that in canada

Apparently ordering anything other than the Crunch Wrap is a "boomer mistake".

I haven't seen that sauce. It's home to the baby, Moma, teen, papa & grandpa burger family. Best known for A&W root beer 

Taco bell and Sunrise tacos are both insults to real Mexican food.  Coyote's use to be so so' but heard the portions are small now,  the only real Mexican food is Charlie Browns off Sukhumvit .....    imo

If you are looking for decent Mexican (and no, I wouldn't call Taco Bell decent or even Mexican!) you should try Que Pasa, up near Nicha Tani.

Arbi’s is the one with the “ horsey” sauce and the roast beef sandwiches, pretty good although some say their bread tasted sweet.

I did like their market fresh sandwiches, not available in LOS unfortunately.

Should have opted for Taco Bueno instead of Taco Bell.
