I kinda like the idea of single man in Thailand apartment cooking videos. Showing us how to eat random meals and saving a few bucks. 👍

@svenw.6918 9 месяцев назад

Chicken rice is about 60-70 baht a meal like most dishes. Daily food budget of 300 baht (8.6 dollar) is enough for 1 person. Cooking at home is only gonna save you money if you like to eat a lot of meat.

@EnergySerenity 9 месяцев назад

Can’t really cook much here unfortunately. You’re lucky if you have a stove top. More convenient to eat out most days

What you may need to know is that Makro and Lotus supermarkets are owned by the same person, CP Group, and Makro is cheaper because it is a wholesale market for shops and restaurants.

I actually wouldn't mind a 2 hour grocery shopping video lol, which includes items you would get at a hardware store, and an electronics store. That gives me a thorough understanding.

There is actually a COSTCO in Bangkok called TOPS CLUB! Costco and Tops Market have partnered up to offer Bangkokians a Costco warehouse shopping experience. At Tops Club you will find the KIRKLAND brand food and merchandise. KIRKLAND is the house brand for Costco. Tops Club is located on the outskirts of Bangkok next to Central Rama 2.

@bbbatticus9574 9 месяцев назад

Too bad to telling you that Tops Club was gone now. They don’t operate anymore. It’s sad because it’s has many imported products but seem like no one need. So they decided to shut it down after like 1 year.

@kevinp8108 9 месяцев назад

@@bbbatticus9574 - Wow! I had no idea. I just read online that it closed on October 2, 2023. Perhaps it was too pricey for the average Thai consumer. Too bad, I was planning to move to Bangkok in 2-3 years, and it would have been nice to have a Costco-like warehouse store there.

I assume the prices of items that are sold by weight is per kg? When comparing prices to the US I'm roughly cutting the cost I see in your video in half. Thanks for the in-depth tour!

Because they are not typically eaten foods there. Local foods are far cheaper, it’s the same in Africa and many other places, these frozen foods and western foods are far more expensive because they import them. The local foods are super super cheap. Better to buy from local markets.

@vassanab4243 Месяц назад

If i couldnt get a place with a mini kitchenette.

@XY-rh3if 3 месяца назад

For me, it's not about how long this video takes. It's about how much you you could enter into a single story and find almost everything you need, including help us do a price comparison in relation to our countries. There are definitely some countries you go where this business is a disaster. In order words, you encounter scarcity of basic items on a regular basis, which means you have to go from one store to another and yet, you're not guaranteed finding all your needs.

We don't cook much at home anymore in Jomtien. We have good restaurants in front of our door with 50-60-70 Baht meals.... I'm from Belgium and when we go to the Big C, Lotus etc i'm always amazed the food is most of the time more expensive then in my home country Supermarkets Aldi and Lidl. Ofcourse if i compare it with Carrefour and the big fancy supermarkets here Thailand is much cheaper and their supermarkets are always very clean and are more like shopping malls in Thailand. In Belgium we cook always at home because we only make Asian food and 15 Euro (take out) for a Thai dish is difficult for my wife to pay mentally when that same dish only cost 60-80 baht in her country 😀
