Saan Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Anyone know where I can buy one? The flat surface type not the small ones that are jaffle like. I have tried Tesco but they only have the afore mentioned. Any recommendations as to brands available in Chiang Mai would also be appreciated.

butterisbetter Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 check out central in central airport There is no Central department store at airport plaza. It's Robinson's. Actually, the Central Dept. Store at Central Huay Kaew offers the best selection in Chiang Mai of high end appliances. You can also try Bakersmart and Yok which each offer good selections of appliances both for consumers and restaurants. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sticky Rice Balls Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 I did see a professional double panini maker at the massive 2nd hand warehouse before the highway overpass/adventure hotel they have tons and tons of stuff but IMO seems when a thai buys used goods they think they can sell it for brand new prices...

harrry Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 You may like to check Makro handong...on the first floor there is a section selling some commercial type Champ appliences. They may have something that suits you. Chinese made...adequate for many jobs and cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMKiwi Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 I am looking for a stove top, non electric model that is simply hinged and has long handles so that you can even use them on open fires. if anyone runs across them, please let me know........... Ahhhh, you'd be after the old toasted sandwich maker! The were normally made of alumimium and could do 1, 2 or 3 sandwiches at a time. Brilliant to use when camping. Cant say Ive seen them over here yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rice60640 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Actually you only need a cast iron grill pan and a brick wrapped in aluminum foil to make panini on the stove top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoffel45 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 I have a Moroccan neighbour who makes panini. We could send him to you if you send the fare? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been slowly trying my best to escape the 'electric krap appliance trap' and now grind my coffee with a hand cranked grain grinder and other appliances as well that will outlast me. I have seen a version of the one you posted here years ago with red handles, but I can't remember where it was?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elektrified Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Actually you only need a cast iron grill pan and a brick wrapped in aluminum foil to make panini on the stove top. One of my favorite places I used to go to in Europe for panini made it with a set up just like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiang Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Breville do make Panini Press and Grill but I am not sure if they will have it in stock in their Chiang Mai store. You can find Breville store at JJ Market on Asadathorn Road. The shop is right next to Rim Ping. or contact Hillkoff (their distributor). I am not sure if I am allowed to give out phone number though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cut and seal into two triangular toasted sandwiches. Looked good to me, but first I'm going to exhaust my search for a manual thing done over a stove or other fire.

triffid Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 Yeah Bakermart has them. I was just in today... Made a wasted journey relying in this post whose position in the thread implied it was referring to the manual non-electric kind. Bakersmart has nothing like that. They have the electric sandwich makers, which of course are available at umpteen other places too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are toasted sandwich makers. Panini makers are a different ball game altogether. We ditched our "Breville" since getting the Cuisinart panini maker. Easier to clean as well.
