Funny. Every time I go out to eat in Bangkok, it costs me 3k to 5k baht. When you have the money and enjoy fine dining & 5-star companionship, that's not too bad. LOL

Johnny , You come across as a person who likes to brag 

My dad has more muscles than your dad !!! 

No one cares

I am in the west as well and I am not a cheap Charli this is what I spend every fortnight I might have forgotten some payments so add another 10.000 baht.  So my outgoings is about 36 000 baht per fortnight . My pension is 59.400 baht .So why is living in LOS cheap?

That food at your link looks good.   I forget where you wrote that you were.  Is it Chiang Mai where those restaurants are, that served the food in the pictures?

Roadside vendor just north of Prachuap Khiri Khan city.    First time there and a nice surprise.  Definitely pop back in, as both dishes I had, beef noodles & Yum were tasty.

Thank you sir.   It looks like my restaurant hunt continues.  

Most of the western or near western food that I buy is usually in the shopping malls of Bangkok.   Usually not cheap either.   I did find one in a mall called "The Mall" that has really good food (I think they claim organic) that isn't overly expensive.  They even grow some of their own vegetables hydroponically.  My wife was in Thailand in October and was taunting me with pictures when she ate there!!
