Service On Koh Chang

2012-04-16 12:37:34

I guess Koh Chang is typical of any area of Thailand with it quality of service ranging from poor to excellent.

We were in Paddy Irish bar at White Sands - I have to say that Bangkok sorely misses a pub of this quality. The service was excellent, the beer and food well priced, lots of TV's. A great experience.


The polar opposite of Paddys was experience we had in the south of the Island in Bang Bao - A restaurant which claims to have good views of the Buddha. After an hour of waiting and very hungry we were ready to walk out. The Western owners were highly defensive when I asked if they had started cooking yet as we had waited over an hour for our food and were ready to just pay our drinks bill and walk. A very poor experience and we will never return (nothing wrong with the food by the way).

Again the Polar Opposite at a Thai restaurant last night - the first of our dishes came within 5 mins of ordering. Excellent service.

10am Breakfast today at a restaurant nearby which advertises breakfast - Sorry, Chef is not awake !!!!



So, while I try to remain positive some of these places are simply so very very rubbish I am at a loss as to how some of these places can stay in business...
The worst place experiences so far is owned run by Westerners...

In Short, on Koh Chang, choose well where you eat.....

Macbook Air - I5 Or I7 ?

2012-04-05 17:33:33

Ok, on the surface this seems like a silly question, however, I've always purchased my apple products directly.

I'd like to go for the 13" Macbook air and upgrade to the i7 chip.

I'm not sure how much extra value I'd get out of the i7 when compared to the i5, but is not an expensive upgrade so perhaps its worth it.


Now, my issue is:

1) Buy online, deliver to my condo. It says 3-4 days delivery - Is the delivery reliable ?
2) Order from iStudio - delivery takes 3-4 weeks !! WHAT ???
3) Find a shop where I can buy the Macbook Air 1.8 GHz i7 directly.

Before I decided to buy online, I'd like to know if the Macbook Air 1.8 GHz i7 is available to buy directly anywhere in Bangkok.
All the iStudio and iBeat shops I've been to only have the 1.7 GHz i5 available.

Anyone in the know where I can get a 'pre-pimped' 1.8 GHz i7 Version of the Macbook Air ???
