Re: Meat Loaf

Big lead story on CNN so here in Udon's version of "World News" seems appropriate.

Re: Suit and Tie Beautiful Dress

Recently wore a suit jacket (no tie) at Chef's Table during a cool evening birthday celebration. Felt appropriate especially as the beautiful food arrived.

I wont be wearing one to Brickhouse or Country Grill however, my Udon uniform of Bermuda shorts suffice here.

Re: Papa Farang's

Your cheesecake fan came Saturday at 14h30, 15h15 and 16h00 to find the gate locked and guarded by your not so fierce pooch. Was tempted to use the honor system, pay and grab, but decided against it.

Re: Grass fed Minced Beef..Aussie or NZ..

Alfie, cross the highway going into Nongsamrong, immediately look on left at the row of shophouses on that corner, turn in, park in the parking lot (not on street). It's there with a small sign easy to miss. Signage was not intended to get retail trade, in that it succeeds.

Re: Grass fed Minced Beef..Aussie or NZ..

Panfood might have it Alfie, easy to miss shophouse on left just as one crosses the highway to enter into Nongsamrong from Nongprajak. I was also empty handed at Makro this week, bumping into Papafarang who sent me to Panfood. We enjoyed some NZ grass feed ribeyes from there, and believe I saw mince...

Re: Where are The Best Salad Bars ?

At Sizzler...yummy. In a soup mug I layer quinoa, white beans@, salsa, red onions, sunflower seeds, balsamic. Then dump and mix on a salad plate. In addition to a green salad, plus plate w Cole slaw, potato salad, beets, pumpkin salad, bit of chicken. Then a soup, finally fruit or dessert.

139 baht.

Re: 4 Rai Land for Sale, Near Central, 1.5 Billion Baht

Asking vs getting. Will be really interesting to see. How and what return can an investor get on that amount? Say a developer put 600 condos on it. 2.5 mb per unit just to pay for the land. Ain't likely. So what else??? Nirvana Beyond housing estate near the park sold many houses? Asking prices were...

Re: This Week's Shopping Deal

Beans beans their good for your heart The more you eat The more you.... When the pandemic began, I stocked up on canned baked beans, as my son used to like them. They are still on our shelf, as I also learned I prefer cannelini beans and black beans, or canned lentils, which I always rinse out of th...

Re: Where are The Best Salad Bars ?

139 baht for all you can eat soup, salad, pasta if one wants, fruit, dessert, is the price at Sizzler if only ordering salad bar. (M-F) 199 baht weekend's as they load up extra proteins.

Seems a great value and healthy choice to me. If vigilant just use balsamic and avoid creamy dressings.

Re: Where are The Best Salad Bars ?

The certain place in Central that begins with "S" is the only salad bar I know of here. It is excellent especially if one gets creative with quinoa, beans, veg etc Ice Style Salad in Phuket Town (google it) would be worth copying here, they weigh your salad and have a dozen sauces to choose from wit...

Re: Bellinee's UD Town branch

The branch overlooking Nongprajak Park, next to the museum, was finally vacated with signs and fittings removed.

Some uproar about "why did a corporate outsider get that prime location?" Closed it down months ago.

Will be curious to see what replaces it and pays the rent.
