Expand It's the Thai tendency to order lots kind of dishes to the table and share between all diners it can be justified when the table is full but It's becoming annoying when they are doing it when only you and your local guy are eating when it's clear there is no way you can't eat so much food only the two of you and it's a waste of food. I usually don't allow it and ask him to order a dish or two maximum for each . Phoenixblue 1 Quote

Expand I understand it and chalk it off to cultural differences when it happens first time. But if we dined before , sometimes even few times then he should know routine. Not fundamental issue and I don't mind spending money as eating together apart from filling stomach is a lot of fun but I'm opposing to wasting food that way, any way in fact.

Keithambrose Posted September 3, 2023 Posted September 3, 2023 Mac, from Gayguides, is the opposite. I invite him to come to the hotel for breakfast, before a tour, and I have to almost force him to eat. I point out that actually I get breakfast for 2 included in my room rate at Le Meredien! And he should eat what he likes. He says, 'do you think I can have another coconut juice?' Sweet, and/or polite, but almost aggravating! Same at lunch. I always buy lunch for the guide and the driver, and Mac is always very modest. I do give him a good tip! vinapu and Boy69 2 Quote

18past19 Posted September 4, 2023 Posted September 4, 2023 I really enjoyed my very first Songkran this year. no I couldnt go out much for water fights during the daytime since the heat was unbearable. but i had a great time going out at nights. music, water, half naked hot guys and drinks everywhere .. what's not to like? I was conditioned to miss Songkran every time I listen to this song, since it was everywhere, wherever i went last Songkran. I always have a plan to go to Songkran again next year. while listening to this song last night, I was just browsing through air fares and found a decent deal on Qatar airlines. I thought air fares could be quite expensive for Songkran period because of its popularity. But maybe not necessarily for flights departing from where i live. So, out of an impulsive act, I transferred my Amex points to Qatar and booked a flight. now time to look for hotels. 🙂 vinapu 1 Quote
vinapu Posted September 5, 2023 Author Posted September 5, 2023 I can see attraction to the song, I'm already humming along after watching that clip. As for Songkran it looks it one of things people have strong opinion about, including our member. Some like you recommend it heartily and there quite a few of others. On another hand there are those who profess to trying to escape for that period or going into seclusion for those few days. as for hotels, I can imagine it may be hard to get something at decent price closer to holiday so I'd be booking something at least for those holiday days. 18past19 1 Quote
