January 26Jan 26 I'm not surprised at all.Foreigners don't eat Thai food despite it being absolutely delicious and 60% of the cost of a meal of junk food.Even the adventurous ones at Terminal are eating crap like pineapple fried rice.

Was there a need for them to open a new one, when the other is literally yards away.I know some cities ban or put limits on big corporations opening up, and allow locals to run dining.When they are busy, then there is a need.I don't eat that crap but there is a need.

January 30Jan 30 Considering how some thai restaurants ripp off foreigners and tourists, not surprising to see more and more tourists catering at Burger King or McDonald's. Mainly in Hua Hin.

January 30Jan 30 I say it constantly Foreigners do not like nor eat Thai food. Many cannot take the least bit of spice.Thai food is 65% less expensive and 5x more delicious than bachelor pub grub

Never been ripped off.They get ripped off because they choose a suspect business always located in tourist traps.

I've seen them pack the food up at night, and then just lay it back out first thing in the morning - as tourists come salivate thinking it's fresh. Unless you know of a court that cooks the food on the spot.

There's also nothing wrong with getting the prepared food. When I'm super hungry I go for this option because they really heap it on.Absolutely, definitely not made the day before if by that you mean 24 hours and as long as it's hygienic so what...it's so cheap and still relatively tastyYou've got it entirely ass backwards. Made to order is the standard

The food is prepered earlier in the day (or even earlier) and then just reheated.

The vast majority of food is prepared on site and immediately. This goes for everything from phad kaprow, noodles, etcALLEvery food court on the Blue Line including Terminal 21.From T21 to Central lad prao by my count that's about 12 food courts. I eat in them allTesco food court On NutI've never been to a food courts in Emporium or any of those new malls on Sukhumvit, but I'm certain this is even more true in fancy upscale mallsALLYou obviously don't eat in food courts.

January 31Jan 31 As a rule I don't eat fast food, but when I used to do business in Krabi, I would stay at a bungalow place across from MickieD's Ao Nang.Morningtime I'd go in there for their coffee. Best 35thb coffee in Ao Nang.
