There were about 50-60 people dining there at lunch Curt, and that was early in the week. By contrast, the Bangkok restaurants were doing a freeze. So I'm guessing that the good words about this place have got around the traps.

Yes, the manageress was quite a good looker, aged about 28. She told us she was studying accounting at a university in Nonthaburi, which was a revelation to me, as I didn't know that the province had its own university.

Yep, we noticed the effete mannerisms of some of the male wait staff whilst others, as you have noted Curt, were indeed confused regarding their gender.

We shared a taxi back to the Nonthaburi Pier with a Danish couple and I was able to fill them in on the infamous "Bangkok Hilton" as we passed it. A few years ago, one of my employees asked me to take some stuff to one of her ex boyfriends who was than accommodated at the "Bangkok Hilton".

I told her that I didn't waste my time visiting criminals in Australian jails and I didn't intend to waste my time visiting Australian criminals in Bangkok.

I also looked at the food being served on adjoing tables. It all looked so good and smelt devine.

I really can't wait to get back there again later this year.
