champers Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 There's no shortage already, of course, but I'll start it off with Harry Ramsdens (fish & chips chain restaurant), just as long as they sold babbies eds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tolley Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Easy, Trader Joe's First thing that came to my mind too. Second one, a little more cheeky. http://www.goodvibes.com/main.jhtml GOOD VIBRATIONS On the food front, I would love to see a QDOBA Mexican chain food place open (rather than Chipotle). I was in NY a couple of weeks ago and tried Chipotle. The serving size would feed a family of six in Thailand. I couldn't even finish half of it. Food was average to okay. I certainly wouldn't be racing back for it thou. I did like the Burger store Bare Burgers. I wouldn't mind seeing one of those in Thailand.

lou62 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Would love all of them (I'm English) but I'm all for choice the more places we have to go the better. Some may not know it but Cracker Barrel would do well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avidflyer Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 QDOBA Mexican chain food would be nice but I suppose Jack in the Box would need to establish its self first. Carl's Jr. has a nice jalapeno burger, BTW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uty6543 Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 None. I was very disappointed when I first saw a Tesco here although they are an excellent retailer. I came to Thailand to enjoy a different life style with different foods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edd Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 (edited) Any UK supermarket BUT with the UK stock. NOT Watered down range. I'm afraid places like Tesco must get a Thai to decide what to import into Thailand. WRONG. Just copy what you sell in the UK. We are the same people and Taste's here as their. This is not Rock science. So UK/US Supermarkets pull your finger out. Edited September 1, 2015 by edd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lgking Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Hooters is already here I believe in Phuket. Pattaya would be a natural. Aldi is the 'parent' company of Trader Joe's, but run nowhere as well as Trader's. Every time I visit an Aldi in Europe, I am highly disappointed. And British retailers such as Waitrose, Tesco, M & S...forget it. 50 years behind the times. When it comes to retail...nobody does it better than the Yanks.
