Good one buddy. No I am not working for TAT (Tourism Authority of Thailand). I have been in Thailand as an expat for 13 years now as a screw salesman for the construction industry.

Do you sell screws with a left hand thread and a right hand thread ? I've got the metric screwdrivers to fit them both but cannot get the screws.

Oh I'm only into roofing self-drilling-screws and it comes in only one direction for all.

They have brothels specifically for construction workers?

I am afraid I don't know the answer to this question.

Very interesting evening yesterday evening having Japanese and Italian.

Started at 5.30pm went to the Japanese street, a side street of Silom famously known as Soi Thaniya. So had early dinner in Sushi Tsukiji



Street as usual is very busy with many karaoke girls inviting customers to go into their joints





This is Thainiya Street




Inside the restaurant


In Bangkok the top Japanese restaurants get their seafood freshly delivered from Japan every Friday and Tuesday so its good to visit on these days.

Just arrived ready to cut


Master at work


Preparing our special order

Special sashimi plate




Marvellous otoro and chutoro


Sweet ebi botan


Preparing the Akagai (ark shell)










Finally the akagai and uni

Bloody akagai became a beautiful shell fish


Uni




Finally had anago and ikura sushi


Finished dinner early 7.30pm thought go for some Italian wine at Peppe's ended up here




Had to order some meat


Portobello


Angel hair and homemade Italian sausage


As mentioned before Bangkok not only has nice Thai food but because of the large number of expats here we have great Japanese and western restaurants too.

After a bottle of sake at the Japanese restaurant and a 2 bottles of Amarone, completely spent

loving this thread @yong , keep up the good work, very interesting bro, keep making me hungry

yong,,,, I hope you have a guilty conscience and a tummy-ache for not inviting your CEO friends along for dinner with you. I know I would definitely invite you out to dinner with me when I go to KFC.

Thank you, that was very encouraging. Will post some more in this thread. Next 10 days will be traveling in Singapore and Taiwan so may be a little slow here.

Fascinating indeed. How much did the dual Japanese/Italian feast set you back?
