Another special occasion for celebration tonight.
Goes very well with the dozen French oysters that restaurant brings in every 2 days

That's quite some zinc nutrition you put under your belt. Hope you put same to good use +5555 :p

Leo is for lower class people?

Let's just say Leo's popular with the masses. Very affordable (can't remember el cheapo price). Only thing, I hear they put plenty of "additives" (like perservatives). Chon kaew

I was distracted by the battles being waged in the forum last night reading them till I feel asleep.

Dinner main course was mackerel pan fried then with white wine sauce

Dessert is French classic creme brûlée with a Thai twist, in a small pineapple

I like china beer like Yuan Jing and Harbin. For jap beer Yebisu and Sapporo. Is true that Leo is for lower class people?

hehehe. yan jing and ha pi is good. take 10 yuan can buy many bottle. still got change some more when return return empty bottles. think i can go hainan for retirement liaoz.

leo is a brand by singha to counter attack chang beer. used to be a lo so beer but became very popular. the most popular drink in my kopitiam. scond is chang follow by singha.

Hello Pi Jlokta, thank you. I have learn and pick up many useful informations about Thailand from this thread with the most contributions from big brothers Pi Joetys and Pi Chon. Both have earned my deepest respect.
I'm from the old cantonese school so I also dedicate another one of my lifetime bestest song from 郑少秋 to Pi Joetys, Pi Chon and all bros in Thailand thread. A very motivating and inspiring song, hope all bros will like it ya.

Here you go buddy. Wine is inexpensive here. Food is 100% French cooked by French aalso inexpensive. Like the dozen oysters imported from France every two days its it 1200 baht. Each plate of foie gras is less than 600 baht most places is 750 baht.

Actually, I read a novel about panzergrenadier and thought it was a cool nick 'cos I was in a Panzer unit during full-time NS. :-)

sorry, i need to correct you. unless your NS unit use the centurion mbt (not likely) or now the Leo2, then can consider panzer unit. a panzer battalion consist mainly of tanks, with small number of panzergrenadiers in it. if u Ultra/bionix AI trooper then you are a panzergrenadier in a panzergrenadier battalion.

since u like panzergrenadier then why nick only panzer? i doubt anyone here "chopped" this nick.

hehehe. thanks for the choi siu fong song. me also from old school. i play 80s-90s canto/hokkien/mandarin songs at my kopitiam on every sunday.

paiseh paiseh, on the entrepreneur thing, really paiseh, cos' all along, i never really work hard lah. just invest and let the professionals run the show. however this kopitiam a little different, work really hard. never have i work so hard in my entire life. :( before i open this kopitiam, really kiao kar yeo lampar. but open liaoz just cheong liaoz.

also lucky to met a few helpful friends, including some from this forum who give me solid advices.

 

[chonburifc]

I stand corrected. Yes, technically speaking I was in an armoured unit consisting mainly AFVs with Tank platoons, so that doesn't qualify as a pure Panzer battalion.

As to why the shortened nick, it's because I'm too lazy to type panzergrenadier for every login and I usually log-out after forum sessions ;-)

khorp khun khrap

Clothes maketh the man, i.e. sometimes dress up a bit to show the part as a towkay is part and parcel of social life :-)

Remember reading before a novel where the character was a member of royalty, he said how people recognise him as royalty was how he carried himself and the clothes he wore... :-)

:-)

hehehe. actually at my age, doesnt really matter. also good cos' by dressing sloppishly, straightaway filter out many undesirable elements eg. those who judge others based on appearance thanks tee gong, so far so good.

Pi, from Aug to Oct which month is the best time to visit Pataya and lar kopi at your kopitiam har?

Hehehe...maybe by then you also have live band in your kopitiam too ya, the "Xin yao" style.
