Re: Daddy Deli

Guys, I've given up moderating this thread. Yes you've beaten me. However, have you considered how futile your posts are? You have written about Daddy Deli for a few days. Anybody coming along in a couple of weeks will miss your nice comments about the place - they will simply fall off the bottom o...

Re: Loy Krathong Hua Hin - 2024

I retired and moved to Thailand five years ago today. Just in time for Loy Kratong. It’s always special to me because of that.

Re: Hua Hin Restaurant News

He already has a cafe with upmarket offsales on the way to Black Mountain, beside the Be Well medical centre. I don't know how much business The Lodge has already, a very nice restaurant. Hopefully his well-known presence can attract more custom to that place. I’ve driven by the cafe several times,...

Daddy Deli

Daddy Deli is moving. I believe he said first of November. Moving in with (merging?) The Lodge. Up the hill from DaVinci School just before the turn at Pineapple Village.

Re: The Sausage Thread

Hi all. Anyone know where to find a shop that sells good smoked Bratwurst in the Hua Hin or Cha Am area? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks 🙏🙏 First place that comes to mind for me would be Hua Hin Ham, Sausage, & Meat on soi 41 alley. You can see their exact location in Google Maps.

Re: Surprise Road Hazard

I was cycling on Hwy 3175 in Cha Am yesterday when I encountered a work crew using bush cutters to clear what was mostly grass from the side of the road. Suddenly, I felt a sharp pain in my right eye. I think what happened was that one of the bush cutters flung a rock my way. Fortunately, I was wea...

This is the book I used to learn to write Thai back in the summer of 1990. It was a fantastic resource.

Re: Banking apps - scan to pay time limits?

I tried to pay my tab at Rock Zone last night at about 11:45 pm. Bangkok Bank scan. It didn’t work on three attempts. I was using my mobile data. Thank goodness I had some cash on me, or I woulda been in the back cleaning bar glasses all night! Interesting, did it say "Inelligible Payee" ...

I always use Hua Hin Taxi. 1700 baht from my doorstep near Blúport to the airport. Great drivers and way, way quicker than a bus.

Re: Hua Hin Restaurant News

As an American and smash burger..well, any burger, fanatic, I was bummed to see that Robin Hood was sold and renamed. Those were great smash burgers by a Scottish guy. The place is now called Father & Son, and they have ‘smash burger’ written on their sign. Anyone been there lately? How is it?

Re: The Beer Thread 2

One more thing (promise). I see that Gourmet Market now has a very limited stock of Heart of Darkness beers brewed in Saigon. It's crazy expensive, but worth it for a treat now and then. I especially like Kurtz's Insane IPA (7.1%), Loose Rivet New England IPA (7.5%) and The River IPA (5.7%). Accord...
