In other words just bland stuff that has no spice or kick to it or stuff that's mass produced and microwaved (like a TV dinner). Come on that's a load of rubbish, find one other person that thinks that? pretty decent inexpensive food, just child meal size often that's the negative 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they don't like to see the dishes being washed in a small bowl of filthy water or have dogs wandering around them, or cannot communicate with the staff. Not so difficult to figure out.... CC's is cheap food compared to most Western food places. I still can't figure it out ????. Someone washing dishes does not bother me, seeing a dog is Ok, I can point at the menu or ask for help or even learn some food names in Thai, and I don't have a mysterious disease that prevents me from liking Thai food which is some of the best in the world according to many people. Any other excuses? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any other excuses? I know quite a lot of guys who don't like Thai food. So for that reason CCs becomes their regular go to place. I personally do not want to see dogs wandering about as it is a hygiene concern.... Also a menu written only in Thai is not going to work. Don't lump me in with that group, I eat nearly all Thai food... but I can see people becoming regulars there, like in a pub back home. which was the original comment of yours. Seems a popular place each time I stroll past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pomchop Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 One of the busiest restaurants in soi buakhaow from morning til late night day after day. In spite of naysayers on here there are obviously many many customers who like the food prices and service just fine. Count me as one of them.

It would be number 3; they have opened a 2nd branch on Soi 5 in Jomtien. Pretty busy during Immigration opening hours, not sure about weekends, bank holidays and evening hours.

Any other excuses? I usually eat Thai food and dont mind the dogs etc. I just think Thai food has been ruined by their sugar addiction. Whatever I eat has that same taste of too sugar. All the flavours that made it famous are gone. I ask them not too put it in but sometimes I forget or they forget and I cant eat it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
