whimsy Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 BANGKOK (AFP) — Food lovers in Thailand will soon be able to feast on their favourite flavours from around the country at their local post office when Thailand Post launches a new "yummy" service, an official said Monday.Woodtipong Moleechad, vice president of Thailand Post, said the state agency was discussing the idea of a nationwide food delivery service with famous restaurants across the kingdom. He told AFP that "Aroi Tour Thai Sang Dai Tee Praisanee" -- roughly translated as Yummy Nationwide From Your Post Office -- would launch in the next few months. "The plan is part of creating new revenue for the post office," he told AFP. "Meanwhile, people will have the chance to taste original foods." Woodtipong said the plan was for customers to place an order online or at a call centre, and budget airlines would fly the meals around the country. Dishes would include northern Chiang Mai's famous spicy herb sausages and northeastern Khon Kaen's grilled chicken, Woodtipong said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quiksilva Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Well you'd hope they'd sort those issues out if they are going start delivering meals. I can just imagine a Thai's reaction to being given a half eaten, cold meal that had been dropped on the floor! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
