    I had a hot date with Frankie at the one near Mike's Burgers in Chiang Mai.

    The food was good, but they haven't a clue how to do proper chips.

    Nice corn tortillas Thing the brand is "El Charro" small ones like you get on the taco carts and carnecerias perfect for a nice carne asada taco. I think food land may have 'em. if not, ask 'em who sells them in your neighborhood:
    ชื่อ-บริษัท : บริษัท เอล ชาร์โร เม็กซ์ไทย จำกัด Company Name : El Charro Mex-Thai Co.Ltd.

    Anyone that orders a chicken burrito and can say their food is good is hardly an expert.
    They do just about the best Mexican I've ever had in Thailand though. I'm not sure that real mexican food would be all that profitable here though. most folks are looking for semi-decent tacos & burritos and refried beans & red rice. Miguels does that very well. If you're hungry try the huevos rancheros there.

    I just heated up a few of the above mentioned tortillas and poured a couple of scoops of my black beans in a kind of bean/tortilla soup. Damn that was good!

    I think Menudo and Pasole' would be a hit in LOS considering the amount of drinking goes on in the cities and the villages. Sunday morning treat.

    Nonthaburi you mean? Thought there was a campus in Bangkok also, could be wrong though.

    Probably wouldn't go all the way out there for Mexican food though unless exceptional...

    Heard of Menudo for that but never seen anyone eating Pozole for a hangover, thats for a special late nite gig, specially if you use the whole pig head like it is supposed to be made.

    Supposed to be the tripe in Menudo that does the trick on a hangover belly.
    I don't think the Hominy in Pozole would set to well on a tender gut.

    Mexican restaurant in ko chang

    I was surprised to find a decent (not great, but decent for thailand) mexican restaurant in Ko Chang on my trip there a couple weeks ago. No idea of the name, but was close to the Plaloma cliff resort.

    Charlie Brown on Soi 11 Suk opens at 5:30 I think Tuesday to Sunday. It was Great! Just like in the US. Now run by a Brit who took Thai citizenship.

    Senor Pico, Rembrant Hotel, soi 18.

    Very nice, menu reasonable but you'll end up doing 3-4 grand on Heineken and tequilla.

    New place, LOS CABOS, Asok station, Suk Soi 14

    LOS CABOS

    Sukhumvit Soi 14, walk 50 inside to see it on the left... ( Asok BTS )


    Very nice place, well decorated and solid furniture, prices not cheapest but no VAT or surcharge, price is what you see next to item, i always appreciate this...

    It is actually the soft opening end of december, and at my first visit some items took a bit long to be done, the most annoying was the staff coming every 3 minutes telling it would be coming shortly, we did not care as we known it is not Mac Do...

    Was good, will probably be very good in short...

    I used to go once a week to the Mexican restaurant called Que Pasa near the International School of Bangkok.

    They have Mexican, pizza, corn dogs, tasty burgers, Dr. Pepper, Mountain Dew, and the service is top nothc. The staff is always there to fill your soda - its free refills. Free chips and salsa with your meal as well. They have a play ground for the kids and you can buy pinatas for a birthday part as well.

    Oh an Timba, if you are tuned in - I think this would be the best location for a place if you ever have a go at it again.

    The place is crawling with farangs and it seems they have a bit of scrill in their pocket as well.

    I have yet to be there for breakfast, lunch or dinner and the place not be packed out.

    Worst Mexican in Thailand and ridiculously expensive to boot.
