This week’s trip to TOPS Bangna and Villa Thong Lo.

They renovated the place with a view to attracting more of the growing expat community in that neck of the woods, and now stock more [...]

This week’s trip to Villa and TOPS Thong Lo.
We were not planning to go to TOPS, but Villa had no salad as usual and the Coke Zero was selling at a ridiculous price, so we ended up going after all.

Price Changes
Pork Spare Ribs increased another 5 baht per kg. [...]
