I have looked in the past, not available, only wine coolers at a ridiculous price. Commercial too big?
Good Luck
Two big = no worries. i've got loads of space.
i'm also looking for a gas grill.
JJ, you should be able to finds loads of em. Even a small shop in my Ampore has them. Same stuff you see in small mini marts all over the country. Not expensive.Quote:

You pay the company 3000 + and they give you the cooler. You're then committed to sell their products - a bit.
I could go this way but I'd rather just buy one and not be committed.
Not at all. The ones I'm talking about are stainless locally made coolers. About 4,000 to 6,000 baht. I had one lasted several years. You'll find them in the smaller shops in your nearest town. Certainly CM will have them.Quote:

^ BRILLIANT. I'l check it out. Anyone in CM have a source. It's a bit far but they could always stick it on a bus. Any Chiang Rai links.
What about a grill. Gas is good, electric could do. A good size though.
Sorry, thought you were closer to CM. Chiangrai will have same. Roiet has at least four small shops that sell them. Might even be one in Chang Kong around the market area.Quote:

Jeez janda, and I thought I was thick :) any way, on with it. The problem with those commercial types is that they chew thru the juice, I imagine its the the glass door andporr insulation, but a put a double door version in my house and I reckon it got thru 500 baht a month by its self, two years ago, maybe 800 bt in todays prices.
^ you are :)
But seriously, yes. The juice is a factor. A big fridge would work but I don't need/want the freezer bit.
It's not a major drama.
Any ideas for a grill. One you can put 8 burgers, 36 rashers of bacon, 12 halved tomatoes and a pile of mushrooms under. Plus a bit of black pudding and a few snags. :)

Great photo.
Looks like a Dalton Brekky.
I sold a commercial double door fridge in perfect condition several months ago for 5000 baht. There is a point in me telling you about this - after I sold it me electric bill went down. It was almost 6000 baht less a month than when I had the thing. It was nice to have as I could see all my cooking ingredients. I had fruits and veggies laid out on the shelves on one side and meats and other stuff on the other. Was great to get things nice an organized, but expensive for electric.
Another thought. Must be plenty of suppliers of the small refrigerators used in hotels. Too small?Quote:

That's a huge amount for a fridge! Are you sure?Quote:

The grill is the next thing. I like grilled food. I can't be assed with charcoal etc. Maybe an oven with a built in grill. Hmmm could be good. Prefer just a big commercial griller connected to a gas bottle. I can build a frame to put it at a decent height.
Shit, they must be available somewhere.
Toasted sadwiches, done the right way..... yum.
Let alone the steaks ribs etc.
I know its a thread fcuk, but I'm off to but a new fridge on Sat. I read other posts about LG having crap freezer doors and Big C being crap altogether. So going to Tesco and looking to spend no more than 13K. Also Samsung have drainage probs so I've heard, any brands worth considering?
What you need is a aaaaaaaaahhh senior moment, can't think of the name but those overhead gas driller things that restaurants use. Perfect for your needs.
Got one of the big imported LG, perfect it is, 3 yrs old and not a problem but its Korea built, dunno about the local made stuff.Quote:

Question is where do you pick one up at a fair price. Doubt I want new. Second/third hand and a 100bht of cleaning, a gas bottle and away......
Ye haaaa
or
aaaaaaghhhhhh
:)
We bought a "Sharp W Deodorizer" - big grey thing thing with large freezer up top and enough room for the misses to live in. About 12,000 from Tesco 2 years ago, delivered and set up.Quote:

A point o note though... keep it full. We keep frozen water bottles in the freezer bit and the fridge is always full. Saves a huge amount on fuel. But, hey, you probably know all this.
I want a grill........................
So, where do I get a commercial type gas grill thing?
^Ask Timba where he got his made
^ Yeh, I might do that. The bloke's terribly busy though.
I know the guy here in udon that makes the BBQ's makes them, he made one for the Irish clock and Steve is very happy with it.
Ok, sounds interesting. Any idea how much?
Thanks.

Anyone got one for sale? Second hand is good. It doesn't need to be huge.
So, anyone got a Salamander grill for sale?
That's the problem. We had a used commercial drinks fridge for the center (broken or you could have had it for free - plus transport JJ), really nice efficient & bright, but very expensive to run! :(Quote:
