Nev, you are possibly mixing this forum up with some other one. You have never been on "mod watch" here. That is 100% guaranteed. No one has changed your status since you joined.

Never eaten there..the place I am referring to is about half way down the plaza area to Beach Road, on the right. I am not saying it's one of the best, but it's one I've enjoyed along with the others mentioned above.

Seems to be the case. We've got stocks of everything except Schweppes Lemon, which my staff tells me is still hard to get, at least as of last week.

You were never "screened" or restricted in any way on this site.

Yes, that's it! Thanks.

Did you look at the map? It's Sois 10 and 11 at both Beach and 2nd Roads. Maybe they are sois off Beach Road. Anyway, between the two sois, there are no buildings...only a drive thru (paved) area that goes from 2nd Road to Beach Road...there are shops on both sides, but no buildings in the middle. I call it a cutover because you can drive between the sois to and from Beach Road. I know you've seen it a million times. Work with me on this.

Every restaurant mentioned in this thread, with the exception of the "hole in the wall", would qualify as a superior Thai restaurant. I also like a restaurant not mentioned above that is between Second Road Sois 10 and 11. It's on the right as you go thru the cutover from Second Road to Beach Road. I don't know they name, but they suit my pocketbook and palate. It is in the center of the map below: View Larger Map

I think the place is average at best. It got a huge boost from a couple of well read trip reports, but doesn't have much to recommend it other than that...well, it's cheap. There is no way whatsoever that it would qualify as a restaurant with the "best Thai food" (topic title).

They were in the bar 4 hours or so, and they never interacted with anyone else. The Russian ladies were dancing, some of the hostesses were dancing, some couples were dancing, and they just avoided any contact with anyone else in the bar. It's like they are in their own little cocoon. I tried to get a picture of the two best looking ones dancing, but they refused my request...I think they thought I was coming on to them...which I wasn't...well, maybe if I thought I had a chance Every Russian group I have seen, and there have been only a few, pay when they are served. They don't let a bin run...ever (that I have seen). So, after they left, I asked my cashiers if they tipped when they paid. The cashiers and bartenders nodded their heads vehemently and said "Yes, very good". I had only seen them order draft beer, but the service staff told me they were having shots as well, and every order, they tipped 20-100 baht...for example, the bill was 350 baht, they paid 450 baht. Consequently, the staff loved them, cause they got lots of tips. I hope they come back...I wanna get some pictures!

We've got four of them ( one guy, three blonde girls) in FLB now, dancing and drinking. Two of the girls are pretty good looking.

I've found Thais to be quite willing to jump in front of non Thais in the lines at the mini-marts. I haven't noticed them doing it to each other, but then again, I wasn't watching.

While you're emailing him, you might ask him to show FLB on his map of Walking Street bars.

I've been thinking I need to spend some time taking public transportation to get more in touch with things out there. As it is, I use my own transport, so I don't come in contact with these people except to see them crammed into baht buses coming down from Pratumnak Hill. On second thought...nah.

Is he meant to sit on that?

You ask a lot of questions.

You've undoubtedly already paid for the product. Your merchant is not going to be thrilled about reshipping it to you. I just can't see any benefit to declining delivery.

Would that have been 9/11/11 (Sept 11) or the following day?
