jonwilly Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) I went past the new Kasem shop on the road that goes from Suthep to Wing 41, on left hand side. The shop was open at 08.15. Much same as original shop off Chang Moi, very bad for parking of cars and poor for M/cycles. Wish them luck for they have always given good service. john Edited February 24, 2014 by jonwilly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiniyeow Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 It might help if you put the Google map coordinates in the message as your directions leave it hard to find even for someone that knows the area well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sante Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Kiniyeow, I agree. I'd like more specific directions to the new location. I took a map from the old store but now can't find it. Am wondering if the new store is before Canal Road, on the side of the moat area than the mountains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyecatcher Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 You go up suthep road just past the end of nimmen road. Then at the traffic lights turn left as if you go to wing 41. The shop is about 200m on the left This is their place, photos taken about a month ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sante Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Thanks for the directions. I'm unfamiliar with that part of Suthep and couldn't find Wing 41 Road on Google Maps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sticklee Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Great news, hope they carry the same quality of baked goods as the Chinatown store. Closer to home for me. Happy to see this thread has nothing to do with Coca Cola. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sticklee Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 The original location is Chinatown. Heading on the one way, Chang Moi Rd., away from the moat, left at the Chinese arch about 50 yds. on the left. Sorry don't know how to post maps.

For those of you who don't have a GPS myself included thank you. All to often we here about them being wrong or useless. For those of you who like me need directions Chang Moi Rd.is the one with a Mikes burger joint on the corner by the Eastern moat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mapguy Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Given my name, I enjoy reading the various attempts on TV Chiang Mai to give directions. Some posters are really very good at it. Others? Well........ Anyway, all mean well! GPS giving coordinates (not all people know how to read them) is the new gizmo, not that it is completely accurate --- it isn't always so --- but it generally gets you in the neighborhood within about 25 - 50 meters. In a city, that can mean a lot, but just to clarify what general areas you are in is useful. Thai interpretations of "near" and "far" are wonderfully variable requiring a smile and a great deal of liberal interpretation. Actually, that is not just a Thai trait! In the end, it would seem that the prize for best directions would go to Brits who attended schools more focused on that sort of thing. Otherwise, PLEASE do not drive and read directions at the same time !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevieH Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Directions sound pretty clear to me. went there yesterday, it's a doddle to find. same good stock, new, brighter and airier shop. best of luck to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmsally Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Kasem Store = 19 Ratchawong Rd. Chang Moi. Heading east on Chang Moi Rd take first left turning after small canal crossing bridge (sportswear shop on corner). Kasem = 3rd shop on left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simply copy & paste the coordinates into google search or google maps. You will then see the location on a map on your screen. The problem I have with maps on my screen is most of them are in Thai and my knowledge of the city is not that good. Generally if they show me the old city I can trace them out or some other land mark. With out that I don't know where to start. For all I know they can be on the east side of the river or the west side of the river. That is why I like to see clues as to the locations. Also I have a hard time at times finding road signs. That is why I had mentioned Mikes. As far as the new Kasem is concerned I wish I had known that I was out at Wat Umong and pretty well went right by it. If I had known in the morning I would have stopped in as I do find Kasam a great store in China Town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
