caf Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 I went to charlies and walked out due to old tw4t on another table telling me "I couldn't sit there as Bob was due and he always sits there". All the other tables were taken. I know it wasn't Charlie that said it but he heard it and never said anything about it but he did shrug his shoulders. Ive been to Piggy's twice and enjoyed the food but Ive not been in a while so no idea if its still has good. Ive been to the chilli belle once and thought it was terrible, thats about it on MY experiences on F&C in Chiang Mai others obviously have other opionions and it would be a very boring world if people always thought the same. i agree cahrlies is a bit of a clique; this thread is about his friends giving him a leg up. views on similar establishments are apparently not welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caf Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 This advertising stunt is becoming like a pantomime The effect though may not be as intended by Charlie's PR boys. Piggys - although some posters are claimimg it is closed or does not exist - seems to be doing rather well in terms of getting new customers. Quite active whenever I drive past Pratties at Rimping seems to attract both Thai and Farang so obviously he ain't doing badly either. You don't have to be sheep and follow the TV clique.

Eazy-Going Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 dont really know what the fuss is about personally its only Fish n chips Crikey, it's like the Cod wars all over again, all of this is giving me a bleeding Haddock.... Sheesh, what I would do for a nice piece of lightly battered Grimsby Haddock right now, with mushy peas, scraps, salt and of course, has to be a drop of sarsons, (other brands are available), malt vinegar from Steeles chippy in Cleethorpes, bread and butter on the side and a good Northern brew to wash it all down with...bloody lush man!!!

realthaideal Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 I'm with the others.... I'm betting the shutdown sequence is already initiated,... it's just that one of the mod's just has to take some time n log on - probably off living their daytime lives still. And UG's at dinner somewhere fun. For a thread about the end of an era, it's high time for the end of this lengthy thing ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naboo Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 I've purposely avoided this thread as I have nothing nice to say, and you know what my mum said you should do when you have nothing nice to say..... ....but should I decide to open my mouth, perhaps the closing would hurry along rather more quickly.

gotlost Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 And UG's at dinner somewhere fun. I was on my way to check out Pratties - as I keep hearing good things - but it seems to be closed on Mondays. It's usual in the uk for chippies to close on mondays. that may be the reason here, but i don't know. One reason Pratties is closed on Mondays is there is a Thai market in the parking lot of MC Plaza every Monday. At noon today there was hardly any place to park. So for customers to vista Pratties it is hit and miss on that day and he does need a day off. The restaurant does not rely on tourist for its customers It is supported by the local expat and Thai community in that area . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

realthaideal Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 I wouldn't shoot this thread between the eyes for being an advert thread, as all the fish n chips shops seem to have been given fairly equal voice/ coverage. That's been good. Makes me crave some actually. And when you hear an Englishman wax nostalgic over proper Fish n Chips back home and the sauces and weather and the ale that washes it down, it all seems to make even more sense. But at this point, the topic's more than exhausted.... for at least the next 3(?), 6 (?) months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
