Every Monday, a gang of up to 40 expats tries out another restaurant where an entire meal can be had for under 200 baht. We've uncovered so many good places all over the city.

Excellent buffet Tuesday evening for 99 Baht, but get there early before the obese-brigade get there.

Without any intention to offend either the obese or those who want to mock the obese, we should keep in mind that not all fat people are gross overeaters. Some actually have medical conditions related to the thyroid and metabolism that contributes to their flabby appearance.

Interesting idea, but what happens when "a gang of up to 40 expats" walks into a restaurant?   I have on a few occasions entered even relatively large restaurants with 8 people and it completely throw chaos in everything and we have had to wait for up to an hour for our food.....

Of course if it's just a buffet perhaps it's a minor detail but I don't suppose you only visit buffet restaurants?

Agree   It will swamp them
  
  Could start a thread about the daily specials too. Rosie O Gradys is a must here . The Wedneday braised steak with boiled potatoes is superb

It should also be kept in mind that most people who are fat are so because they ate all the pies.

Amazing how that condition seems to crop up more in people from fast food/junk food capitals of the world.  :)
