KhonKaenKowboy Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Isn't there some type of cash and carry store near the original Sunrise Tacos, with decent case prices...preferably Heineken/Tiger? And howabout that wholesaler at Patpong? short walk from Sale Daeng..a shop house with a mountain of beer and excellent prices. Near Foodland, but can't recall exact soi. Or should I just buy at Food land? Is their a mini-Tesco around there? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buick Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 the place by sunrise tacos (soi 12 ?) was converted to a nightclub awhile back. assuming we are talking same spot, you can strike that one off your list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhonKaenKowboy Posted April 3, 2017 Author Share Posted April 3, 2017 yes, that was it...what was the name of it? Is Foodland still over on Soi 5, is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lamyai3 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Don't do it. If it's in the fridge, you'll finish it off.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buick Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 i can't remember the name of the place on soi 12. it was a not chain, like foodland, etc... i used to go there with a friend of mine. he has a car and would stock up on booze as there was a parking lot right in front. i think the lot got turned into a larger seating area for sunrise taco and maybe another bar or restaurant. i think the club is closed or will be closed real soon. that whole plot is going to be redeveloped into condo or hotel. obviously foodland is closeby on soi 5 but i'm not sure about parking there. carrying a case of beer on the BTS could be tough !! you really earn your beers that way.

MrJohnson Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Order online at TESCO and have it delivered to your front door. Takes the pain right out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tesco is so sloppy, they would probably bring me beers that were a year old. A case of cans on the BTS is pretty doable. Even a case of large Heinekens...the frig uses less energy, when full....

Tesco delivery is spot on in my experience and if you don't like what's delivered you don't have to accept it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup - I second that. Tesco home delivery is excellent, website system is well set up, easy to pick a delivery time, and as gdgbb says - you can refuse anything they bring for a replacement or refund. You can also get free delivery if you're flexible with your schedule and check the delivery slots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhonKaenKowboy Posted April 4, 2017 Author Share Posted April 4, 2017 Will try that from my home turf in CM. Guess I will give Food land a try for Songkran. Tiger prices have actually fallen here...will be interesting to see what is offer in BKK. Those 490 ml Heineken's seem to really hit the spot.

(just kidding of course....we all dream of a girl like that...haha) I for one and hoping for a Midnight end to the Songkran parties....will be a perfect reason to head back to the "loom" for some cold ones. I priced some of these rooftop bar places....sheeeet! Surprising there aren't more "jumpers" with bar tabs like that. The tax and service charge alone wouldn't really be a cheap date.

I usually go once a year.. Valentine's Day. About 1250 baht for a couple of drinks... Ouch. The best view are the river hotels in Bangkok, Millennium Hilton at night my fave.
