Big Joes?

[mattcodes]

Has it moved? Opposite Bangrak market (the road that goes to airport) there a building with Samui Homemade foods and a big joes sign? But no frontage just looks like a storage lot, cant see kitchen, or where the entrance is meant to be.. weird

The last time that I went there - it was in the same place as before (the old Monkey Theatre Road), but that was a couple of months back

Nalak as much as Steve wanted to keep the name and the brand it died with Joe. It was a legal decision not a marketing one mate. As far as most people here are concerned it still is and always will be Big Joe's hence the Big Joe sign above the Samui Homemade Food one.

You are way,way off the mark. Joe was, and remains extremely highly regarded here and H2ODunc's post explain exactly why the name had to be changed.

With all due respect, can we just stop having threads about Big Joe and the follow up company.

Thanks.
