Turkey-express For Xmas!

[thaigerd]

I know it's still a bit early to talk about Xmas but I am starting already doing some plans.

OK, here we go:

My idea is to create a TURKEY-Express from beginning December untill the 28th. People can order a whole freshly roasted turkey for their office xmas party, for at home or even small guesthouses or bars.

The turkey will be delivered i a foam box with a real turkey gravy, old fashioned stuffing, roasted potatoes and brussel sprouts. Delivery time can be between noon and 9pm every day.

All food for this TURKEY-Express will be cooked in the most hygienic and HACCP controlled kitchen on the island.

What do you think?

Your thoughts and additional ideas highly appreciated!

skip the Brussel Sprouts and I might be in for it! Maybe an option f mash potatos ? ... candied yams?

[geoffphuket]

Sounds good to me

Will you need a work permit for this

Oh...and welcome back Gerd, we've not heard from you for a while

Thanks for ur reply JD,

I will have many options of course:

red cabbage, peas&carrots, potato dumplings may be even goose for the Germans here.

Many more ideas to come!

Gerd,

A little off topic, but where do you get brussel sprouts on Phuket ?

[jdinasia]

I could see a service setting up for weekend "roasts" working pretty well too! ...

Bars/GH's/small hotels etc

Gerd,

Fresh one from Australia or frozen from a company in BKK, both very good quality, the aussie ones are a bit expensive and need a lot of labor.

I'm saving my pennies for a Honda Jazz

I did this for a friend of mine in Nanai Road/Patong he owns a small restaurant, huuuge success!

Just 4 weeks ago, but a bit risky for me(workpermit) and it's not nice to work on my day off.

But a good add. idea, thanks!

Sounds like a great idea Gerd!

I won't be back until 16/1 and we'll have to catch up for a drink again then.

Are you rearing these birds then – have they got names? I wouldn’t want to think I was eating Doris at Christmas

[donna]

Old Croc - are you coming over especially for my happy birthday? Sweetheart you are!

[Chantal]

Excellent idea Gerd!

Unfortunately would not be able to order as I have already booked for our staff/customer Xmas party.

[Goldenbead]

I usually order a turkey from Don's but if you are doing it with all the trimmings, I will order one from you. Please keep me posted. I am interested!

Sorry to ask you: How much do they charge for a turkey?

Thanks!

Gerd

[Goldenbead]

Cannot remember but it isn't cheap! Will try and pop in there and ask a question and get back to you. When you order, everything is seperate so it is extra for gravy, stuffing etc. Will let you know.

Definitely, can't do Christmas without it. Are you going to do ham as well?

[Mr Jones]

Don't invite drug addicts round for a meal on Boxing Day.

They may find the offer of cold turkey embarrassing or offensive.

sorry

Sorry for my late reply, just coming back from a food exhibition in BKK.

I will try to have many more possibilities: Goose, Ham etc.

As soon as I have some more news and updates for the turkey-express I will let you know here.

Perhaps a roasted Max instead of a turkey?

Anyways, good idea.
