Phuket Driver, Restaurants, Wine
I was wondering if anyone has a name for a driver in the Phuket area. I have names for the other places we're visiting but not there.
Also, any favorite restaurants in either Phuket or Chiang Mai?
Finally, I've read about the 340% tax on wine. Is is possible to have a bottle of wine with dinner without cashing in the family jewels?

three years ago i would have said don't waste your money as you can never tell how the wine has been treated, vis a vis the weather and climate conditions....it could be vinegar....but i think things have improved....it will be expensive....i would do without until i got home...

In restaurants we stick to Hardys Australia Wine, a decent Shiraz is about US$23-25, in shops it costs US$17. Glass of Italian wine is normally between $2.25 and $3. In shops you can get a 2 litre bottle of ok Italian Wine for under $10.
