no, raw onions taste nice and spicy! i love the breath stopping portion, something like eating wasabi.

in my opinion, raw bean sprouts taste yucks! i always ask for no bean sprouts in every dish. cooked ones are ok.

have, have. i can arrange for tow gay with giam hee (salted fish). :p

Air fryer more healthy

Air fryer though a lot more healthy, is also less pang.

I've tried chicken wings and tau kwah from air fryer, the shiokness not there. But then again after many drinks, don't think many will notice the difference in taste.

Godfather of Chonburi goes to jail… for now
By Bangkok Pundit Jan 31, 2013 3:35PM UTC

Police were able to arrest fugitive Somchai Khunpluem after receiving a tip-off about two months ago that he was visiting Samitivej Hospital for medical treatment, an informed source claimed Wednesday.

The tip was later confirmed with the source adding that Somchai used the name Kim sae Tang when he consulted his doctors. The police investigation revealed he usually changed routes to and from the hospital to avoid police though he regularly used the motorway.
The source claimed the investigation showed Somchai has no passport, causing police to believe that he did not flee abroad but instead remained at his residence in Bang Saen, Chon Buri. It had earlier been speculated that Somchai had escaped to Cambodia.

wah lau eh!! 2500sgd = approx 60,000baht!! cb! even bank managers don't earn so much in LOS!!

before we continue, u must specify where ur relatives stay mah. cos rural places like surin, kalasin etc sure cheaper.

u say no need pay rent, but ok la, we include a token amount for ur relatives, say 2,000baht?

so its 60k-2k = 58k baht.

58k baht / 30 days = average u 1 day got 2k baht to spend.

2k baht = approx 80 sgd.

i in sg with my wife, 1 day also never spend $80!!

You seriously DON'T need $2,500, I've posted here somewhere its definitely much lower. I am sure even with $1,500 its more than enough for 2. of course everything budget depends on your lifestyle. But then even how you spend I still think $2,000 can be way too much for here.
