River View Restaurant - Pathum Thani
Sawadee khap my puan puan khun Thai and farangutan friends. After a few days away in Sangkhla Buri and Kanchanaburi we made our way back home. We had an interesting night at The Resort in Kanchanaburi. What is this place? Is it a classy restaurant with live music or an upmarket girlie bar? Is it a bit of both? You have waitresses and hostesses. The waitresses are appropriately dressed, and the hostesses are all in short skirts, with their nom prominently on display. They hang around single guys or groups of men giggling and what have you. I have seen groups turned away because they may have a child with them. That, by the way, includes anyone under 21 years of age as we discovered when we tried to get in with our Thai nephew when he was 18 years old. We were turned away twice with him.
We also had an issue with booze. We ordered a small bottle of Regency. The waitress poured our drinks and The Na'ster noticed that there wasn't a lot of alcohol in her drink and that it was mostly soda. When I looked round, we were on Jamerson's and NOT regency. We called the hostesses who had taken our initial order and she started pulling her face because they would take the money for the Jamerson's out of her wages. Sorry, but tough! It was her mistake. That was my opinion on it. The Jamerson's costs considerably more than a half bottle of regency. Na'ster, however, has a softer heart than I and decided to let it go and pay for the bottle of Jamerson's. She wasn't happy when she found out that we had to pay for the soda on top of the whisky as it was supposed to be included in the promotion!
Anyhow, we decided we wouldn't go to The Resort again. We'll see!
We needed some food on the way home and decided to stop on the Pathum Thani side of the Chao Phraya. We didn't find the restaurant we went to last time - it's on the channel - but we did find the River View Restaurant. A bit of a hidden gem. Nothing over the top or fancy. Quite vintage in style and small. The food was great. We had several prawn dishes, all nice and fresh. I couldn't find anything online at first. I asked ChatGPT and it gave me an address:
ร้านบ้านริมน้ำ River View, 55/8 Thanon Tad Bomrong, Bang Kadi, Pathum Thani.
They don't have a website. If you put this in to maps or an AI search, you should be able to find the place.

Then, when I had finished editing, I couldn't download the video to my computer. I think the AI subtitle's function kept making the program crash. Still, we got there in the end!

Sawdee! Sabaidee mai? How are you my farangutan friends and puan puan khun Thai? This week we headed up northwest to the borderlands of Thailand and visited Sangkhla Buri and the Three Pagoda Pass. It was my third time visiting this fascinating place. This time we stayed in the Samprasob Resort. We paid 1,900 THB for the room and we had a great view of the Mon and Red Bridges. I guess it's a re...

I will try and review the larb set at some point. I am not a fan of larb. If you enj...

Ace video Frogz, the presents are ace, and the food and venues looked good to. The first venue you went on Xmas Eve. Is pretty much what it’s like back home 😂😂😂what’s NYE like in Thailand? 🙂
Cheers. Well, NYE is celebrated more than Christmas. You'll see Happy New Year everywhere with all the Christmas trees and Santa, but Christmas is hardly mentioned. Probably as it is a Buddhist country. Your average Thai person would not know the Christmas story. You also have to remember that NY is not the Thai NY. Thai NY is in April, Songkran, and relates to Buddha.
How many countries have you traveled so far?
Good question. I haven't done a lot of travelling since moving to Thailand, but I did travel a lot before settling here. I would have to think about that question. It's a few.
Great experiance🥰🥰🥰
Thank you. A recommended trip.
Cha am is the best. Always something to do at night but also plenty of peace and quiet when you want that too. Beautiful beaches as well ❤
Agreed. I really enjoy my visits there. Sorry for the delay in replying. As the channel is so small I hadn't noticed your reply! I appreciate you taking time to reply and comment. Thank you!
Loving the channel franky, seen a few of them now ,.
Cheers mate. Most of the time I have no idea where we're going. I have to look up information when I get home.
Oh yea beautiful resto in Thai
I love it in here. You don't feel like you are in town. It's like you are up in the north.
Nice one mate cheers 🍻 👏
No problem 👍
Good buy. I bought the exact same self-heating Ramen Bowl when I was in Pattaya last March. I re-used it many times for the regular square Ramen sold ten to a bag. It saved me from buying a bowl : ) I would add shrimp or crab to it as well, 👍🏻
I'm just getting back to your comment. As my channel is so small I hadn't noticed I had comments! Thanks for yours. I like the tip. I was going to do the same and add my own ingredients. pimp it up!
Why you’re some Judith Chalmers.
We try and get away in the breaks. I wish I had Judith Chalmer's job! And money. 😄😄
Hi dear Newbie in your channel discover today Watching & greetings
Greetings!
I tried it once on a road trip! It was pretty good.
I agree. I had a beef pasta recently too and that was also pretty tasty. It's good that 7/11 are getting more diverse meals in stock.
nice !,love it!!
Nice one, brilliant 🙂👍
Cheers Tony L. I've got a boat noodle Hot Cup coming soon. I want to see if I can get a ping pong ball to spin on the venting steam. I will also see if I can find the Mala version. Mala is a hot and spicy Thai flavour. Hope your well.
Why you’re some Bear Grylls.
I agree! Very sweet however. As a one off .. 😂
It's not too bad but you don't get a lot. Especially the vegetables. I'd say 2 meals would do most people.
I think it would be fun. and a great gift for kids.
Looks good. I always find myself in a 7-11 after the clubs...
Chinese music for Thai content? They're all alike to you.
Music by Jarry Espende The track I use is called Thailand Inspired Music For Vlog [No Copyright]. I recommend that you visit his channel at the link below for some popping tunes. Don't forget to like, subscribe and share here and on his channel. czcams.com/channels/MWHR0cfrA1OpYic0jKqzyQ.html
You may want to take it up with Jarry Espende who wrote the music. "Thai Inspired Music For Vlog [No Copyright]". Yes, it clearly sounds Chinese and so I am currently looking for something more Thai in flavor or for something else entirely. I'm also going to be upgrading the titles soon anyway.
Hi Scott. Bang Saray certainly has a big expat community and most I assume would be retired. So, for a sense of community it would be a good place in Thailand to retire. Unfortunately, I don't know much about renting there.
Hi scott from New Zealand do you think bang saray good place to retire and can you get good condo for 15 000baht thank you

Thanks for your positive feedback. Hua Hin is a great seaside town.
Great video! Nice to see this area again. I stayed at Supatra in 2018, this part of the beach makes me really calm and relaxed. I will go back and maked a video again from Supatra. Nice to follow you travel in Kanchanaburi, which is another of my favorites. Good channel👍

Nice filming, real sound and just very few tourist selfies here, thanks!
which date you did this video ?
I can't remember the exact date, but it was in April the week before Songkran. Possibly 8th or 9th?
@@ourmaninbangkok2431 oh i see , your video dated two days ago , i was shocked to see such calm sea and warm weather during this time of year 😄
What is it like there , around June/ July ?
Hi. I haven't been in June or July. I normally go in December or April, but I did some research: The weather in Koh Chang during June and July is characterized by heavy rainfall and high humidity. According to the data from Holiday Weather and Weather Atlas, June is one of the wettest months of the year in Koh Chang, with an average rainfall of 502 mm spread over 13 days. The probability of rainfall occurring ranges between 61% and 66%, which is almost as high as it ever gets on the island. Visitors should expect to experience thunderstorms and moderate rain, occurring respectively on 42% and 40% of those 13 rainy days. Light rain might be seen as well; heavy rain is possible, but quite unlikely. The weather is humid, with temperatures averaging about 26.5°C (80°F) in the afternoon and 23°C (73°F) at night. July is similar to June in terms of weather conditions, with heavy rainfall experienced during the month. The average rainfall in July is slightly less than that of June, totaling at 25.9 inches per month 1. Visitors should expect to experience thunderstorms and moderate rain, occurring respectively on 42% and 40% of those 13 rainy days 2. The weather is humid, with temperatures averaging about 27°C (81°F) in the afternoon 2. I hope this information helps you plan your trip accordingly.@@camwells9726
Awesome pub. If that’s the smallest pub what’s the largest in Manchester? 🙂
Absolutely n fantastic video. I do love Saddleworth/Uppermill and them there hills 🙂
Cheers. I also like the place. A fleeting visit but it gives you a feel of the place.
Awesome video. It’s a ace place 🙂👍
You get a mention in an anonymous way. Cheers for the like. I'll be putting some island videos soon. Koh Kud and Koh Chang. Hopefully this week.
I was there last week.
