argus1949 Posted February 29, 2004 Share Posted February 29, 2004 Francois, sad to hear but some people don't like competition. Keep this in mind when you do business in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foggy Bottom Posted February 29, 2004 Share Posted February 29, 2004 I was drinking round the corner when it started - it took me 1 minute 30 seconds to get there with camera in hand ..... the fire brigade beat me to it Well done the boys in the red trucks Te fire appeared to have started in the kitchen from what I saw before the owner pulled down the roller shutter, which the firemen then had to demolish before they could get in to put out the fire - clever thinking not, by the owner. at least five fire trucks attended and over 30 firemen, local press were on the scene within 5 minutes, the presence of the farang deputy editor of one news publication being noticeable by his absence - despite living only 4 houses away and being an early to bed type.

mrmnp Posted February 29, 2004 Share Posted February 29, 2004 "Jewish lightning"? Denying fireman quick access suggests it, however he may well have been trying to deny oxygen to the fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Judge Posted February 29, 2004 Share Posted February 29, 2004 The close location of anyone from a local "news" magazine means it is almost definitely a setup. Untrustworthy maggot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
francois Posted March 1, 2004 Author Share Posted March 1, 2004 a fire like this this one is too stange to be a real accident ... they had kept the same cook as before, and as many knows, a kitchen after service is ready-clean for the next day, how can a fire start there as it has been cleaned and re-setup for a good restart? we also have seen in the same street some people being kicked out by the owner, for one reason, they started from nothing in a place ... well.. "not ready" .. and the business ran nicely, and so the owner got it back to rise the price of the rent, from 8,500 up to 12,000 baths a month, nice! isnt'it? lucky our friends could relocate in the same area and cheaper! this poor guy just wanted to take back this restaurant running pretty good, even in raining season, kept the same cook, the same menu, just made clean and renovated a bit, and then ... ppfff gone like argus said, be careful ... francois ps: and S### I lost a nice place I used to go for diner sometime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
