I feel like I'm finally getting over something I probably picked up a couple days ago after walking in some flooded waters on soi Buakhao. After not eating for 2 days and shitting every time I took a sip of water (I ran out of tp whilst I used the bum gun the whole time). I ended up puking one afternoon on a completely empty stomach That was fucking horrible. Then I had hold and cold spells all night. Good thing I'm not on one of those 4 day trips. H1N1???? nope.

Renovations at the Pattaya Beer Garden
steamer replied to PattayaPete's topic in Bars/Gogos/Business Owners' Forum
Never, ever had issues with the staff whatsoever. -
I think there are many ways we get scammed. I was at a "hole in the wall" type resto and ordered from a menu that had no prices. I ordered 3 typical items to go and my bill was 370. I knew they were just charging fallang prices and Thais would never pay that but what ya gonna do? Tonight I ordered at another resto and this time there were 2 of us and we also had 3 items plus rice as well as 2 cokes, a water and a mango shake. Total price was 290.

Who says you can't get a good burger in LOS?
steamer replied to 9cisco999's topic in Restaurants and food
fries, bun, pickle, lettuce, onion, coleslaw and tomato look great. Pattie looks dry and tasteless tbh. -
Have you ever been stopped by Customs coming INTO Thailand ?
steamer replied to chatkeow's topic in Idle Chit Chat
Once, now that I think about it. My bag had an awkward protrusion due to over stuffing but the guy just frisked the bag an let me thru. Kinda piss poor attempt at keeping out contraband if you ask me. -
The Drunken Duck Opening of Our Restaurant
steamer replied to THE DRUNKEN DUCK's topic in Bars/Gogos/Business Owners' Forum
I've learned that if a place caters to the English and/or Aussies that you'll be lucky if the food is edible let alone tasty. Special or unique is not in the cards whatsoever. -
If you don't need a pool then try a new place just around the corner. (just behind the Family Mart on Soi Lengkee) It's called the Miracle house and it's less than 1000 a night. (I paid about 800 pn in low season.) Oddball and I just had an extended stay there and we wont stay anywhere else now. http://www.tripadvis...i_Province.html

Cambodia taxi plus tuk tuk services
steamer replied to channyhim's topic in Hotel and Accommodation Questions
Prices are the same as quoted from drivers recently at the airport. Seems fair to me. The only time I felt truly ripped off in Cambodia was when I didn't get proper change from the immigration thief's. -
Saw Skyfall today with oddball at Central festival. It wasn't good nor bad just bleh. The film stopped for 3 minutes just as one character said "don't cock it up" Ahh, movies in Thailand.

I've never seen this rule enforced anywhere but if one loads up their plate and just leaves it then I have no problems if the restaurant chooses to charge for the uneaten portion.

Had a few steaks in Patts and most were average to poor. Au Bon Coin (Jomptien) does make a good steak but the best one was last week at the Beefeater. Their sides need some improvement however.

Call Apple at Miracle house. She's on Lengkee and her hotel is brand new. She can monitor her hotel from her phone and I'm sure she could tell you if she's satisfied or wishes she went in another direction. 6638413029

DK Car & Motorbike Rentals(2 New bikes now available)
steamer replied to PoolHustler's topic in Transport in Thailand
rented from a few different co's and not one has asked for a IDP. Most do get a copy of my passport tho. -
Tried it once. I'm used to better back in Canada. (huge Viet population where I am.) My Thai girl thought it was fine but she had never tried Viet before.

Private Dancer A Gogo
steamer replied to Private Dancer's topic in Bars/Gogos/Business Owners' Forum
The place seems to be coming along nicely. Was there when it just opened and was very disappointed to see a communal towel in the restroom. It didn't take too long before it was replaced with a proper air dryer tho. -
Pattaya October Storm Watch - Gaemi coming
steamer replied to MM's topic in General Discussion about Pattaya
I was occupied that night heard the rain and thunder but didn't think too much of it -
Was looking at a Starbucks bit on 60 minutes a while back. They claim to have over 50,000 possible combinations available. You may find the price higher than you'd like but if you can't find something decent to drink then it's not Starbuck's fault.

Archa beer in a can is only 70 baht. much prefer that to a draft of dubious origins. -
tried it today. not memorable for any reason No tartar sauce batter was thin and tasteless chips were raw in the middle (I used to work in a chippy and know all about double cooking chips) fish portion was generous chips portion was small decent value @140 but would rather pay more for better. the menu claimed there was free delivery rather than the D2D up charge of 50 baht was still picking away at it when the waitress just took it away from me without a word. I guess she's used to people who don't finish their food there. Went to get a Lamb Kebab on LK metro afterwards . I'

I think I will later as I've had my fill of F&C's lately. Tried the sizzling seafood hotplate and it wasn't very good at all. 240 plus 25 for rice plus 30 for coke. 310 including tip. just lame chop suey and nothing at all like this.
