A couple of my friends have just returned from a few days away in Pattaya. They told me they are seriously considering moving there due to the abundance of 99 baht breakfasts on offer. They say they can't get them in Bangkok. My question is this-What is so good about a 99 baht breakfast?

It's a Baht less than Roi Baht.

Simples

They must be skummy friends you have their Julia.

Those 99 baht breakfasts are really for the creeps of society......low so stuff for drunk tourists and their hoes.

Classy folk go for the 119 baht breakfasts.

I guess perhaps the word "friends" was a bit exaggerated. They are neighbours. I never pay less than 300 baht for breakfast

Did they visit Konying's breakfast emporium?

What ur saying is, that you pay too much for the 119 baht breakfast.

Did they visit Konying's breakfast emporium?

Is that one of the places that's a bit slow to bring the 1 baht change?

I understand you have to wait at least half an hour.

I have no idea where they went ATF-all they said was that the place and proprietor were dodgy, but it was 99 baht well spent.

They said that despite asking the waitress numerous times for their change, none was forthcoming.

It's a familiar story with some establishments on the seedy side.

This Digital Pikey tries to make a living out of 99 baht breakfasts. How sad is that?

Can anyone enlighten me as to why these types of establishments appear to be popular?

Be fair. They need that 1B to top up the miserable salaries the pikey owners pay them to produce and then serve such slop....

Well Julia it's a double sided scam. The owners hope that you will buy a few beers or an extra tea/coffee and the punters steal the ketchup and other condiments and sometimes the cutlery too.

It's a lose lose situation.

Thanks ATF. After looking at the Peter Dickinson reviews, the photos he provided looked like great advertisements for food poisoning. Are the owners from any particular race, and based on said photos, do the owners actually eat their own 99 baht breakfast?

Sometimes I have a muffin for breakfast, I think that costs about 20 Baht, then again there's no way to be sure as I rarely go to the 7/11 myself.

These guys are so mean they probably live off the leftovers, if there are any after the plate lickers have finished.

My aim is not to spend more than 100 Baht a meal. (I will consider 110 Baht if the meal looks worthwhile). I have purposefully eaten two 'Full English' breakfasts priced at 140 Baht and one at 180 Baht.

I'm laughing so much now I think I may have an accident....Sterling stuff!!!

What a sad sack of sheet....imagine being so lame as to rate these scummy breakfasts. Lol

There seems to be no mention of whether the change was given or not.

Clearly Peter wasn't giving a comprehensive review. How could he miss such a thing?

Maybe somebody should contact him and ask him to be more thorough in the future.

Indeed. Worse still, fancy making an issue of spending 140B and 180B

Maybe 'angry' kurtramsbottom is the platelicking reviewer of said slop....

Could be, but with his disposition he would more likely to be the reviewer of grindhouse establishments. Also, I doubt he can afford 180 baht breakfast, or a camera.

scrambled egg, sausage (not a hot dog), bacon, baked beans, juice, cup of tea, toast, butter and jam.

no grease in sight. lubbly jubbly 110 baht

If I share one with my wife will we get 50 satang change each?

the price my dear - the price nowadays almost nobody is looking for quality

Unfortunately you are correct. Most wouldn't care if they're eating roadkill as long as the price is right.

I had a breakfast yesterday 295 baht, was i ripped off?
