Was also at the Mango Fair Saturday morning...big crowd and lots of mangoes...We have been going to the fair for 6 years now and I still have the same question that I had 6 years ago...Where do the mangoes come from?...Some try to tell me they are local and I really doubt that...We have several trees that produce the nice large mangoes, both yellow and green and the fruit on them right now are about as big as your thumb...We water and fertilize regularly and so I still have my question...Where do they come from and if they are local, how do they get them to grow to this size this early?

Different kind? We have two mango trees outside and they have given big fruits for weeks. This is in Udon.

The main early crop is a variety called UD gold, a large sweet early ripening variety produced as the name implies, here in Udon.It's developement is hastened by extensive fertilisation and wrapping the ripening fruit .Of course this special treatment adds to the cost. This year the box illustrated containing 8 mango's was selling for 300bht .The general crop normally comes to the market during March and April, the end of the rainy season .

As for entertainment. Tonight Sunday we have Thai Boxing and the Miss Mango competition. Tomorrow the last day there is music, singers etc on stage, in front of which is the private party, with food for govt employees and their friends and helpers .This area is roped off but there is plenty of room for others to sit and listen to the music .

Were the bugs bought on purpose or just another freebee that came with the fruit trees :D

Tesco coming to Nong Wai. The Tesco Lotus chain has just signed a ten year lease on premises in Nong Wai to build a new Tesco Extra store there . Building expected to commence very shortly. \:D/

Alongside the Non Wau So resort they have built a very nice coffee shop in a garden enviroment called
Cafe de Wausor. It has indoor and outside seating surrounded by a large pond complete with huge carp. The coffee is good and reasonably priced , from 45bht.It has free wifi and seats about a 100.Alongside there is a traditional Thai wood pavillion that they are constructing as a restaurant specialising in both Thai and European food. This is due to open early next year. In the meantime the coffee shop is open from 7am-6pm .

The location is about 20kms from Udon out on the airport road just pass the NWS traffic lights .
Good news, indeed, for residents of Nongwahsaw and surrounding areas. The restaurant is open......the owner says, 6-6......they have breakfast on their extensive menu. We stopped today for lunch.....has a spicy squid dish along with a plate of clams in a very delicious garlic sauce. Topped off with lemon and strawberry slushes. Good rice, good service, and a fine cappuchino to finish the meal off. Not street food prices....but a most welcome addition to the very limited eating out our way.

The restaurant sports a most interesting koi pond.......you can buy a baby bottle of fish food and feed them by hand. Also in the pond are several extremely large amazon pla chon.

I included the photo of the koi.....not because of the koi, but because of the reflection on the water on the left hand side. I know I can see a face in there......but who's is it? John Lennon? Maybe it was the ingredients in the food.
Phone number 086-219-7902.

This weekend 4th October the annual boat race festival is being held on the big lake in Nong Wai.Unfortunately this year it is only to be a one day event , owing to the management committee's elected four year tenure at Tessabahn having expired and new elections not being permitted under the military rules .Therefore no one to do the organising. So no sponsors which means no big prize money, which in turn means it hasn't attracted the big teams from all around .So it's restricted to a few local teams taking part on Saturday .Should still be good fun though . \:D/

The new addition to the Cafe de Wuaso is now open. Nice indoor/outdoor eating, steaks, good line of European beers, ales, Thai food, nice ambiance, and a large hog on display in the dining room. For those who want to pick up a t-shirt or other biker related gear, there's a small gift shop alongside the restaurant. Restaurant is open for lunch and dinner.....until 9.....or later if there are customers.
I had ginger pork over rice, squid salad, and a lemon slushie for lunch today.....250 baht. Very delicious. A very nice addition for those who live in the SW sector outside of town.

The staff told me the owner wants to put on a Christmas dinner....turkey and fixings. But he needs to know if anyone is interested. 098-673-8600

This may have been addressed elsewhere on the forum but if so I've had no luck finding it. Does anyone know the schedule for the 2015 Mango Festival at Non Wau Sor?
