Jimjim1968 Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I hate going to Tescos and only go if I am forced to. I make a point of keeping my falang diet to a simple minimum. Jacket spuds and baked beans. I buy the spuds from a stall that makes trendy crisps. They sell them to me cheap. Baked beans are 22b a can. I only go to Tops where the atmosphere is nice and not too many people. Every time I have had to go to Tesco there are about 3 cashiers (out of about 30 check outs ) and tons of sorry looking people queueing up leading back into the food aisles. And I just can't bring myself to pay the inflated prices. I can eat Thai food no problem. I do treat myself to cheese sometimes though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robblok Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Today i went to a market near my home, you wont see me going back to the carefour anymore. The fruits were superior there and so where the vegetables and mushrooms. I will however buy my meat at the carefour, it quite ok at the carefour where i shop.

Fresh fish as salmon, they have good frozen products blueberries / smoke salmon, but meats are not a buy for me. I enjoy the shopping at Top for many products (central Pinklaow) Fresh food market for duck fillet, fresh bone chicken, eggs, vegetable I like Foodland as well The places i do not like are Tesco / Carrefour / villa market Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peace. ef I just look at my Map Magic (ThinkNet), in Layers you have Makro. I could not give you direction, i know where two is, could send you GPS next time i go, but could not remember streets name. Makro have Site : http://www.siammakro.co.th/en/main.php You have a drop window with all the locations PS, i do not think the meat (chiken / pork) is any good in Makro, the one I go is very good for fresh fishes, they not all the same.
