Please tell me you have eaten some of the chips and veg already.

Yes, I'm surprised to see nouveau cuisine in Saraburi!
Nice report anyway Rider.

I did some riding in the hills around Chaing Rai this year, near empty roads, great views, bikes were XR 250 Hondas,so enuf grunt to cope with the climbs, (hard seats gave us some stick mind), thoroughly recommended for anyone who needs a weeks 'escape'.
Mrs Suspect has a touristy-book/magazine on Vietnam, that also looks to have great roads for bikes...maybe a North-South trip is needed..?

Sorry mate, but that's all they dished up!!! :O

222 baht for food that wouldn't fill a bird!

I was taken aback as much as the readers were/are!

I knew folk wouldn't believe me if I told them, so, out came the camera

They got a 3 baht tip as a measure of my gratitude for not poisoning me

I think the farang-sized portions in Saraburi are thin on the ground alas.

Yeah the trip report took awhile man, the tricky part was the photobucket bollox, as the upload crashed and the pictures were scattered all over the place! Took me about an hour to hound them all out again
