nivram4491 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 I live near Kad Farang and I am wondering if I can get some feedback as to the quality of the food of the new Subworld at Kad Farang from someone who has tried the food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NancyL Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I wonder if we can get a ten-page thread going on the merits of a small subsandwich shop that few of us will ever visit. Here goes -- my favorite place to get a sub is the Subway in the basement of Kad Suan Kaew. Their daily special is a good value and I always run into people I know when I eat lunch there. However, the bottled water is a little overpriced at 15 baht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses G. Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 IMO, any water in a restaurant that is not FREE is overpriced, unless one requires an individual bottle. The big bottles, that supply dozens of glasses, cost almost nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bangmai Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I think Subway on Nimman is better, and I will be going back, when the 49 thb sub returns in the low season. The one at Star Avenue was good, too. Walked out of the one at Night Bazaar several years ago, after they put about three teaspoons of tuna on my 15 cm tuna....As far as Subworld; maybe the people coming out of the Game are too broke to buy a sub after paying 95+ for a draft.

Papayabokbok Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I will admit i live LOSO and try to get by one a shoestring as im not working and i have no income coming IN as a retiree might... In that statement i have become creative...i simply have a tea kettle--the crappy stainless steel ones that was 140bt...work fine..i have tea daily...also i have made oatmeal, boiled eggs, veggies, hot dogs, as i found a vietnam vendor selling tiny rolls..perfect for my weenies!...anyhoo... I used to live in the sticks so 7-11 -tesco express....i would get eggs at tesco--mayo--bread and make egg sandwich..also some spicy brown mustard at tesco extra for my weenies....tuna fish...peanut butter and jelly as if i was home late and needed a snack other than crappy mama cups.. My idea on the sandwich would be go to tesco or rimping(ugh)if you;re Hiso and but the meat you want and get the bread or roll u want and the fixings at salad bar..ive seen them at tesco...in other words make your OWN tasty sandwich the way you like it...seems to me it would be better and cheaper... Anyhoo back to the barbs and jabs..dont worry about me--i will find the door myself.....dont forget the slaw/chips! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phrafarang Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I use the Subway near the bus station and more recently the new one near Mae Chuk, foot long BMT on Parmesan with cheese, not toasted. Its a good snack for the drive home from CM but rarely lasts further than Doi Saket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phrafarang Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Any Subway aficionado knows what a BMT is, five slices ham, twelve slices of two different types of Salami, four slices of Cheddar cheese with salad, Caesar dressing and salt and pepper on a fresh baked, twelve inch long, Parmesan bread roll. Currently on special at 198 baht including two soft drinks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wha Ho The most expensive way to buy vegetables in all of Thailand would be to get them from the salad bar at Tesco. The same for bread Rimping has. Tasty but not cheap.

BB1955 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) I went the other day , had a great meatball sub , got ome for the wife too and brought home . Mine were real good better than subway and cheeper . The place was very clean and the service was good . There was a lady there training the help she was very nice and made a good sub . As far as the price I felt ti to be very fair . I ll go back for sure . Edited January 18, 2015 by BB1955 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Konini Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Powdered milk would put anywhere on the Do Not Visit list. Horrible in tea and unthinkable in espresso. This is rather a odd business practice if the place is hoping to get a secure a big farang clientele though isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last business there was Wraps, they failed as well, heard they moved to Makro. The lady owner used to hate my guts. Real piece of work. That premises needs a juice bar or the likes.

WinnieTheKhwai Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Just needs a cheapo burgers & fries stand. ( That's both cheaper and better than the new McDonald's there.) Fish & Chips also okay. Or something with burritos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the point is make your own--buy the roll or bread anywhere..also your veggies--if u need one tomato--lettuce---i am good with just red onion and mustard.....heck-i just ate nom tok moo and they gave me a crapload of veggies..lettuce too--or any vietnamese joint...you get it with takeaway....
