flamingtodd Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 (edited) I was searching in Mumbai for a Hookah or Shisha pipe for my house. Can anyone tell me if it is legal in Thailand? If so, does anyone know where to get the flavored tobacco, or the original tobacco? Mumbai has recently banned the pipes because of the new smoking laws, so I have to travel this weekend to Puni to find one. (I have uploaded a picture in case you aren't familiar with the name) Does anyone own a pipe? Enjoy smoking a Hookah or Shisha Pipe? todd Edited July 21, 2008 by flamingtodd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuban Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 If so, does anyone know where to get the flavored tobacco, or the original tobacco? Many muslim coffee cafés dotted about the place - suggest you ask there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samuian Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Anybody? As for the Tobacco, check the Arab Cafe's 'n Restaurant which do offer Shisha Service - they will point you in the direction or sell you one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenl Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 Just bought a complete sisha set at an Arab restaurant in Patong, including the Apple tobacco I prefer. Todd, they also sell tobacco there in different flavours. On 200 Pee Road, about 100 meters after Diving World on the right hand side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naam Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 if shishas (in Egypt sishas) are not available you might consider a nargileh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevenl Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 would you mind mentioning the price, to have a base for haggling? They import their new ones, which means the choice is very limited, if they are willing to sell at all. I paid a hel_l of a lot, 6,500 Baht, for a second hand one. Good quality though.
