Displayed prices are for multiple nights. Check the site for price per night. I see hostels starting at 200b/day and hotels from 500b/day on agoda.

  1. I use Kayak.com and set it to send me daily reminders of the prices. When the prices start to go up, I buy.
  2. I was there this past May and decided to stop in every bar on the way back to my hotel from the town center where they were having a jamboree. It was only a couple of blocks, but I was well wasted by the time I got back to the hotel, LOL
  3. Also, don't forget to ask Doug, "Where ya at darlln'?" when you go to Bourbon. That is the standard greeting in N'Orleans.
  4. The most AMERICAN thing you could come across in BKK is Tony Roma's or Bourbon Street. I love Cajun food, but always have to tell them to "kick it up a notch" when serving me, as I like it spicy. When it's good, a compliment is to say "We're cookin' with gas now !".
  5. Again, not MY problem. Not meaning to be insensitive, but what I'm saying is, I just don't have that problem. I got sick once in all my years in LOS, rancid Buffalo meat. It only kept me from work 1/2 a day.
  6. Wow, you guys are good at naming people I've never heard of lately, LOL
  7. Yes, they bathe and brush their teeth in the Ganges as half-cremated bodies float by. It's ok though, the food is hygienic enough, but I could eat damn near anything w/o getting ill. I think it's the ONLY country left on Earth that still has Leper colonies.
  8. Depends on what part of India. Down in Madras/Chennai they like it mild, but up closer to Kashmir it's the way I like it, hot, Hot, HOT ! I had a divine Vindaloo in Chennai that was making the locals all teary-eyed.
  9. Maybe, but was it widely baked and consumed as it is in America?
  10. Here's CNN's complete list, although I don't agree with a few of them: Po’ boy Frito pie Apple pie BLT Barbecue ribs Indian frybread Buffalo wings Lobster rolls S’mores New Mexican flat enchiladas New England clam chowder Fried chicken and waffles Popcorn Baked beans Peanut butter sandwich Fortune cookies Cioppino Potato chips Maryland crabcakes Macaroni and cheese Grits Meatloaf California roll Wild Alaska salmon Chicken fried steak Smithfield ham Biscuits ’n’ gravy Jambalaya GORP Cornbread Banana split Fajitas Jerky Twinkies Pot roast Cobb salad San F
  11. The stuff Bourbon Street sells would classify as American. Cajun or Creole to be exact. Here's what CNN had to say about it: http://travel.cnn.com/explorations/eat/best-usa-travel/top-50-american-foods-513946 Key Lime Pie Tater Tots Sourdough bread Pot Roast Twinkies (newly revived) Jerky Banana Split Cornbread Jambalaya - there's that N'Orleans influence again Biscuits and gravy etc. etc....

  13. I'll have to give the new Bourbon Street a whirl next time in BKK. I used to really enjoy their Mexican buffet almost weekly when they were on the Square.

  15. Repeat for clarification, the KFC in the LOS is the bee's knees.
