Bob
I won't be there at that time, but I see you'll be in BKK for Thanksgiving. I'll bet Maeng is fixing turkey and all the trimmings (Thai style...lol)... on that day. You probably already have every meal planned waaaaay ahead, but I'm sure Maeng would set a table for 4!

we do hope to have maeng's garlic shrimp one day while there..

karen wants to be as far from turkey as she can be!!

Kathie Jul 21st, 2009 08:20 AM

Bob, we may overlap with you in Bangkok on one day. We arrive in Bangkok on the 20th and fly out very early in the morning on the 26th.

So far the 25th(Wednesday) looks the best with Kathie and Cheryl, the Bobs and the Andys + NYwoman?

kuranosuke Jul 21st, 2009 09:41 AM

i arrive in bangkok on the 20th(ua), then leave on the 29th. kathie, we might be traveling together from narita.

anytime is a good time for me for a mini or maxi gtg. lol.

bob, i'm with karen. no turkey for me.:-)

rhkkmk Jul 21st, 2009 09:42 AM

kathie...we return to the plaza anthenee about 6PM on the 25th....should be able to connect that nite...

rhkkmk Jul 21st, 2009 09:47 AM

so then maybe the question is: WHO WILL BE IN BKK ON NOV 25 IN THE EVENING??

Smeagol Jul 21st, 2009 10:05 AM

Muffin and I also arrive on the 20th! But looks like we will miss all the fun...DRAT

Kathie Jul 21st, 2009 10:15 AM

Ken, we'll be flying from Rangoon on the 20th. It sounds like you'll be there if we meet on the 25th - that's great! It looks like we'll have a nice-sized group.

Craig Jul 21st, 2009 12:03 PM

I won't be there on the 25th but if you do get together, please raise a glass to me - it's my birthday. Hopefully there will be other Fodorites in Bangkok when Jeane and I are there in February.

Gpanda Jul 21st, 2009 01:02 PM

If we plan the GTG early enough in the day, Bob won't be awake and we can have a great time. We will certainly raise a glass to Craig as long as the Yankees don't win the World Series.

it came to me that Kineree on soi 8, sukhumvit might be a good place for a thai dinner and meeting....maybe i will ask carol to check it out for us in the next few weeks.....she loves to do kimball errands, but then its "her neighborhood"....

if we went there it would give kathie and andy and others a perfect chance to check it out...

MichaelBKK Jul 21st, 2009 06:17 PM

I'll try to keep my travel plans clear for the 20th - 26th. Kinnaree sounds good. Those that do want turkey may want to check out Bourbon Street. I haven't make it there yet for Thanksgiving, but everyone raves about it. I think he serves it all weekend, so it doesn't have to be on the day. You could do Maeng's one day and Bourbon the next!

rhkkmk Jul 29th, 2009 08:43 AM

simpsonc510 Jul 29th, 2009 07:06 PM

So Bob, when I walk down soi 8 to Kinnaree in the next couple of weeks, to check out a possible GTG location there, how many folks do you think you'll have at your GTG? Looks to me to be about 10-12?? Are you looking for a private room or just a large table?
Carol

rhkkmk Jul 29th, 2009 07:23 PM

that's probably about right...maybe 10 by my current count, but perhaps a few more..

Gpanda Jul 30th, 2009 01:10 AM

How about a table for 9 and a table for one?
