farang bars? - where, where...? Next you'll be saying there's a decent restaurant that serves roast lamb and trimmings!
Get the damn passport. It makes everything so much easier.Originally Posted by ralphinlaos
Is it BKK Grill?
There is "Tong Dee" on the corner up from big C, wooden outer, open sometimes, they have good food in there. the pong yang kam steak house is good, but 10 minutes outside of town. I made it to golden pond a few times and hit neds once in a while while i worked there. some really good tom yum noodles on the road that runs parrallel to the main road Macro i son. basically turn left onto the side macro road and hit the noodle spot on the right hand side. i use to eat at the school i worked at a lot, good stuff for like 10 baht. they put up the pizza company after i left.
Tong dee (good gold)...been there, but when I asked for steak knives instead of the regular blunt instruments the waiter said they don't have any, then commented to mrs that farangs are too demanding.
Ended up doing a takeaway of the 2 x 3/4 leftovers, went for a haircut and gave it to the barber.
Used to frequent Greeen Corner two sometimes 3x daily when I was marooned in SK...now eager to broaden my horizons.
Btw definitely wouldn't recommend the restaurant couple of hundred yards from GC, the one with tables made of converted sewing machnes...crap food, crap service, crap crapper.

So we yust arrived in nakhon phanom.
we stay in our house yust opposite the airport 15 km from the city.
everything went very smooth until now.
we are looking for a reliable local builder who knows someone?
Well, sjeng, I've been wondering about you. Nice to know that you have arrived in Nakhon Phanom - just in time for the nice weather. When you get the urge to roam, come on over to Thakhek for a day or two - quiet and cheap and friendly.
Have you had any luck on finding a builder? What are you building - a new house?
Take care -
Ralph
