Now I know we tend to complain about things sometimes and we often do not stop and smell the roses enough. But i am talking about little things that bring us pleasure (no not necessarily the carnal kind) that we might take for granted. Heres my point and heres something I love about thailand. Feel free to add your own. just came back from a solo lunch today. it was in a non descript food court in a building not 5 minutes walk from my humble abode. Actually the food court is quite outdated and many stalls are closed but I hope they dont close the place because the food is really good. Anywhoo, I ended up with a bowl of noodles with some slices of pork, pork filled wontons (soft), some greens with a nice broth. Added sme chili flakes for a bit of a bite, well it was rather tame but I dont enjoy it if its Thai like hot. I washed it down with an inced lemon tea-not too sweet. All this for a whopping 60 baht!!! The quality was great, the portion was fine. I am full. Thats a nice, tasty lunch for less than $2!!!! Thats outrageous but in a good way. Sated, I made my way back to my hovel and stopped at 7. I bought two some hair gel, shaving cream and some chocolate for less than 150 and the shaving cream was expensive!!! I walk into my CVS back home and buy some toilet items, and a bit of junk food and barely get back change from a $20!!!! I could be wrong but Pattaya just seems so Farang centric I noticed the cheap thai eateries a lot less than I do in Bangers. Anyway please feel free to add your lifes little pleasures........
