Businesses You've Found

[mca]

We've all been to places where you've vowed "I'm never going there again" but giving credit where it's due where are the places you'd go to again regarding service, etc. I live in Khon Kaen but please feel free to add your own town's "gems"

Last weekend I went to the fairly new small nursery opposite Big C next to the big bank to pick up some stuff for the garden and while my wife was browsing noticed a little traditional Thai massage place. Not wanting to spend hours waiting for my wife and seeing as I've got slight back pain I thought I'd give it a try. Friendly old Thai granny running the place, nice and clean, aircon and I have to say the guy who did my massage was one of the best (if not the best) I've ever had. 280 baht for 2 hours which I thought was ok. Been back twice this week!

Driving past NE university I saw an Italian restaurant. I don't usually go that side of town so I'd never noticed it before. Pretty authentic food and very relaxing. Really thin crust pizza which I like and proper salami etc. I think the owner is a westerner due to the authenticity of the grub.

Any more?

The White Elephant German resturant and bar at Roi-Et

It was a few years ago but they served the best meat balls on mashed potato that I have ever had. I still think about it now and have tried to copy it.

Whilst visiting prasat, Surin, on a visa run I always stop by the Lelawadee, Harleys bar and Garys place.

I would like to add castle howchow resort at kranuan knon kaen run by a guy called howard.

lovely place biggest pool in issan i go once a week for a swim and only 55baht to do so,and has hot showers so on the way out i have a good scrub as at home i only have a cold shower installed.

has great food too.

and howard is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet.

there are a few in our village, one a resteraunt that cooks excellent thai food so my wife can cook her issan food and i can buy from there if she does not feel like cooking.
