Fresh seafood in local restaurants?
Recommendations? Maybe it’s me but I’ve found better fish in Chiang Mai then HH. Looking for fresh, probably locally caught seafood.

Re: US and Thailand Tax Treaty
A saving hinges on the definition of “assessable income.” This is the simple layer of the tax treaty (can see on IRS website by searching on “treaty”) they also have a more detailed document that clarifies things. It gets more complicated from there.
