If anyone of you is in town and may be sick of Thai food and craving for western cuisine, a good and reasonable priced restaurant will be Paris Bangkok that serves authentic French fine dining cuisine. Its ok if you are not dressed up as this is Bangkok and people are very forgiving.

The dining area - the blue tank on the left is where fresh Mediterranean crabs are kept


Smoking and EPL area


Private rooms


A fine Gironde Bordeaux


Had 3 starters - cheese ham puff


Fresh French oysters flown in daily


The taste of the Mediterranean is, well you just have to try this to know


Foie gras terrine


Had two mains - a live French crab


Simply boiled and eaten with mayonnaise


Deep sea sole baked with lemon - the texture of this fish is unlike the normal Asian sole, its got more body and not easily broke up

It seems like you are driving and enjoying the scenery based on about 400 km a day, which is about 4 to 5 hours of driving a day.

Yes the haze was very bad..

When i go up wat doi suthep, which is high up in the mountains, the city view was so hazy. Cannot really see the city from the mountains. And it was only halfway on the mountain.

Everywhere we go (in chiang mai) we can see forest/plantation burning. Some are burning just next to the road...
