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.

This weeks Supermarket trip to TOPS at Central City, Bangna.
Renovations have at last been completed. The supermarket was fairly busy on Saturday evening. Not the sort of atmosphere I enjoy browsing in so we did not try and take a look at everything.
