Popular Food Stalls Removed From LK Metro

There have been a removal of multiple food stalls located near the Soi Buakhao end of LK Metro.
The stalls, which had been present in the area for many years and had many regular customers, were reportedly removed for multiple reasons including at the alleged request of nearby business owners concerned that they could block the visibility of their venues.

To be fair, the stalls were technically on the street and not standalone buildings, which is likely what the powers that be used to remove them after the alleged complaints.

It was not immediately clear where the affected vendors would move to. Reactions on Pattaya social media groups were quick and mostly negative, with many commenters stating that they had enjoyed these stalls for many years and were a major part of their nights out on LK Metro.

TPN Media notes that it was not immediately clear if the city or a different organisation had ordered the removal or who exactly had complained about them.

Let me add another perspective to the discussion.

I too had heard good reports about some of the food and some of the vendors. I asked myself a few times why would I ever want to perch on a stool (if there was one spare) eating amongst the hussle and bussle of Soi LK. Add to this the mad bikers and the MB taxi parking a few metres away? And all of this with cannabis wafting on the breeze.

The answer. Never.

This was the wrong place for vats of scalding oil and drunk tourists out to get a fix.

Oh yes. I think Mr. Buzzing Pattaya was a Chow Mein Charlie fan and that in itself was no recommendation.

Much rather walk around to Soi Lenkee and sit down in Jolly Frier (if it's still there)
I think that you will find the Jolly Friar a part of history now but the same Soi has a dozen places with all sorts of food.

As far as I am aware the nearest thing to the JF is Sharples in New Plaza. More food on the plate than I can handle but very tasty.
