July 8, 200422 yr What do you prefer, bacon and eggs with toast or fishpaste fried rice with sweet sausage (kao pat kapi)? Croissant with milkcafe or pat-ong-go(fried bread puffs) with warm soymilk? What is the strangest breakfast you had here? My strangest was a ricesoup with crispy dried fish and bbq scorpions on a sideplate.
July 8, 200422 yr Croissant with cafe or eggs and bacon is fine with me, but i will most likely throw up if i see fish in the morning on my plate. Afternoon evening no problem, just not in the morning.
July 8, 200422 yr Bacon, eggs, sausages, mushrooms, fried tomato, fried bread, black-pudding, two slices of toast & butter... fresh pot of china tea. Start each day with a good meal
July 8, 200422 yr Advertising your product? Looks as good as Crazy Dave's in Soi Chaiyaphum, Pattaya. My usual with the family is Kha tom muu, but on my own I either have nothing or call in CD's. But next week I'm in Singers again and get brekkie for free in the hotel. The downside is that the next meal will be about ten at night.
July 8, 200422 yr Wot... no black-pudding Harry Palmer, please look before you leap....what is that dark stuff right in the middle of the plate? right. in. it. Hockey Pucks, thats right.
July 8, 200422 yr The last time I was back in the UK we went for a breakfast at the local greasy spoon cafe. They advertised a breakfast as the "undertakers friend", it had all the above plus cheese on toast and bigger portions but swimming in a sea of fat. After living here I couldn't face it.
July 8, 200422 yr That's the best looking breakfast i have seen in thailand. Would hope it tastes as good as it looks. Bring on the colesterol !!!!!!!!!!!! angie
July 8, 200422 yr Wot... no black-pudding Harry Palmer, please look before you leap....what is that dark stuff right in the middle of the plate? right. in. it. Hockey Pucks, thats right. C'mon ... someone has changed the image. Earlier on I distinctly recall there being two fried eggs... they reminded me of so many Thai girls
July 8, 200422 yr Author There is a decent version of the 'undertaker's' at a local cornercaf in Barnet, where I will make myself sick in about 3 weeks time. My Thai family would live on that portion for 2 days, and I'll have to make sure to make it more digestible with a couple of pints of real ale in the adjecent pub before I collapse. After that I'll be gorging myself with a potatoe and cheese bake with chips and mushy peas, and a pot of Yorkshire tea which you can stand your spoon in, if Virgin trains will permit me to reach my destination in the North before my return flight.
July 9, 200422 yr if Virgin trains will permit me to reach my destination in the North before my return flight Wow you can afford to take a train in the UK. How much did you win on the lottery? To donate to Mr. Branson's new helicopter fund buy a ticket Monday morning Piccadilly Manchester to London Euston,180 miles, absolute bargain £100 and as an extra non optional extra you get to stand up.
July 9, 200422 yr That's the best looking breakfast i have seen in thailand.Would hope it tastes as good as it looks. Bring on the colesterol !!!!!!!!!!!! angie Well you ain't seen my breakfast yet. Coincidentally it matches the number of posts you have made. "69" is the breakfast of champions. When my wife asks what I would like to eat (and before I get a chance to reply) she says "I talk about fooood"
July 9, 200422 yr I think I have more Thai breakfasts than Western.. But for Western brekkies, here's a sample: Brekkie (How do you upload pictures by the way?? I see only buttons to link to existing web pages.) Cheers, Chanchao
July 11, 200422 yr My favorite breakfast, especially after a night's piss-up is a big bowl of Jok!. With lots of ginger, fried garlic, corander, couple raw eggs and the rice just soft enough. Life dosen't get any better!

Why are trains so expensive in England? Makes the Skytrain seem incredibly good.
July 11, 200422 yr <deleted>! Why are trains so expensive in England? Makes the Skytrain seem incredibly good. Not only that with the amount of accidents that have occured since they privatised and subbed out the maintainance contracts to shall we say questionable contractors you might like to take out some more life insurance just in case. As the Potters Bar crash a while ago the announcer said the train now arriving at platform one, two and three is coming in sideways. At least here the trains run a bit slower but you can get some decent food and a beer without taking out a second mortgage and also you stand a very good chance of getting to your destination in one piece.
July 11, 200422 yr <deleted>! Why are trains so expensive in England? Makes the Skytrain seem incredibly good. EVERYTHING is expensive in UK, pays for the EU and the dossers. A pint of beer is about THB150 and that's a good price! If you want bottled stuff then you're looking at THB190-200 for 330ml. One reason why I'm selling up and coming to Thailand.
July 11, 200422 yr Normal breakfast in this household is a bowl of weetbix, cornflakes and a cup of coffee. Eating spicey food first thing in the morning is just too much for me
July 11, 200422 yr Go to the Munch Shack on Second Rd, Pattaya, near Walking Street! Great English breakfast there!!!!
July 12, 200422 yr I'm surprised no-one said it yet..........Vegemite on toast !! Definitely breakfast of champions !!!
July 12, 200422 yr Author For me, Boon Me got it right. Either that - a bowl of jok with an egg stirred in; or bread with cheese and coldcuts with coffee, while in Thailand.
July 12, 200422 yr stroll: I will be in Barnet, off and on, in September and October. Where exactly is the cornercaff that you recommend, please? Where do you go in the North?. I am from the place that made Jowett Cars (Idle, between Bradford and Leeds), where they still make fish and chips as good as you'll get anywhere (and a bit cheaper than most places).
July 12, 200422 yr As posted in the Pattaya Topics forum, had brekkie in 'Fatties' on Sunday. Not impressed. Crazy Dave's is better. Not tried the Munch Shack lately, even though it is much nearer. Will do when I get back from Singapore in a couple of weeks. Ah, Garden Hotel b&b - with scrambled eggs, beans, bacon, sausage, ham, fried spuds, but NO BLACK PUDDING . And across the road is another hotel with pretensions of being an English Country House - with a dinner to match. I will put on ten kilos - lots of running when I get back, and swimming. It's a hard life.
