Delicatessen

[cmjantje]

What are the best deli shops in CR. and where can I find them. Last question, what do they have?

Delicatessen you will mostly find, also in Chiang Rai, in shops carrying a sign with the text 'delicatessen'.

I hope you really don't expect me to go there for you with a piece and paper and spend hours to write down all they have, do you?

It might be a better idea if you would go there yourself, make the list and present it to us, when you are at it anyhow.

Start for instance tomorrow with the 'delicatessen' in the soi next to the Italian Restaurant Da Vinci.

Then you take a break for a day and do the 'Delicatessen' opposite Wat Klang Wiang on Friday.

I mean, you don't have to do it all on the same day.

Take it easy, you could do the Swiss one also next week. There is not really a hurry...

You could also do the Swiss one first and the Dutch later, it's up to you.

Enjoy the goodies!

I finally got to the Wat Klang Wiang deli on the weekend Limbo, the ham and bacon is very good and they also do a cheese kransky style sausage that is very nice.

I never saw any bread, does it have to be ordered ahead?

I like the lady who served as well.

The smoked salmon isn't stupid either! Not to talk about the liver pai, the old Gouda, the incredible sausages and the rest ...

Soon cmjantje will produce the list and then we will know all about it.

Coming home after shopping one needs an iron discipline, otherwise the delicaties will not even make it to the fridge.

To those it may concern:

This little 'delicatessen', also serving good German, Lao and Thai beer, Genuine Cider and all kind of nose-warmers is closed on Sundays and Mondays.

The rest of the week it opens at 1 pm and closes when you are friendly enough to leave (unless this is before 8 pm).

Concerning the lady that runs the shop:

Yes, she is a very nice lady with two lovely children and she is very good looking on top of that.

Everybody (and her husband in particular of course) likes her as well actually, so you can consider yourself normal 555..

Concerning the bread:

The bread could be used as a letal weapon. Even if you would drop it on somebodies head from only the second floor,

that person would never be able to add 2 plus 2 anymore and come up with the right answer. You need a saw to cut it.

There is also a softer one for people like me. I am very grateful for that...

He doesn't always have it though.

In this little row of six small shophouses there is one other shop, less than ten meters from the Swiss 'delicatessen',

that might be interesting as well for many of us. It is a rather Swedish oriented barbershop, where an evenso charming lady cuts hair,

which can, of course, be considered quite normal for a barbershop.

The difference with other barbershops lies in the speed with which it all happens (all for the very modest amount of fifty Baht)

and the enormous satisfaction of my misses, when she saw the result.

So from now on I will combine these two shops when it is time to do so.

Maybe I'll just stay near here on my visit...sounds like a winner to me.

When I read this I think CR is a better place than CM!

The adress from Dutch, anyone has it? Wat Klang Wian is in my PDA.

It may be not such a bad idea to make a list with things you need to know and where to buy stuff.

Thank you all for your replies.

Two months ago I moved from CM to CR. I live somewhere near Wiang Chai. A road Without night lights so you can see the stars, well water so nice and clean that you forgot what water tasted like etc and still 25 minutes drive to Big C etc. But we have everything here... the only thingI treat myself wth are those deli's. All the rest I have.

Oh BTW, anyone knows where to buy office furniture? I need a cabinet to hang maps if you know what I mean, we call it a hangmap but I cannot find a translation on the net.

Wiang Chai is a nice little town. I like that little lake between to the school and the temple. We pass through there weekly as we head to town. We are another 40 km to the east.

Inserted is an interactive Chiangrai map.

Can somebody edit it with some names and adresses?

Thanks in advance!
