Farewell, Play Bar
One of Maha Sarakham’s first really cool outdoor pubs. Lots of memories here… It was the first place to offer deep fried larb balls. It was also where T and J hid from the cops upstairs (I didn’t even know it had an upstairs!). One day last week we drove by, and it was just gone.
Google Earth Hyperlapse
This hyperlapse is not the first or the only one, but it’s my favorite.
Neal Stephenson called it, simply, Earth.
IIRC.
Funky Khao Soi
Noodles are life.
Curry is life.
These are curry noodles.

The King of Thailand with a Nissan Cefiro A33
Some years ago, Nissan presented the King of Thailand, his majesty Bhumibol Adulyadej Rama IX, with the last Cefiro A33 produced in its one million unit production run in Thailand.
A good car for a great king. As a show of respect for his passing last year, we have also decided to let our beloved car go. A keen buyer has been found, and we say goodbye to our faithful ride this Friday.
Cefiro A33 Skyline Red Engine Lid Project
For the racing boy in YOU!! Custom paint job by Wattana Sound. Hand lettering accent by Yoshida Garage.
Catering to a younger demographic (the other kind of potential buyer, nostalgic old men who have wanted this car since it came out, might like it as well – the car bling runs strong in SE Asia) is hard work, but hopefully we can sell our trusty VIP ride very soon..
Twin Stars
No, you cannot have a dog. But you can borrow them from other people!
Dripping Umami Bomb
Mina brought a hamburger bun stuffed with a fried duck egg over to my desk and said, “try some.” I was just waking up, so I told her I needed a minute. In that minute, the sandwich disappeared and I jokingly asked Mina why she didn’t save me any.
“Cuz it was sooo gooood.”
I fried up one of the duck eggs Nam’s sister gave us from her egg factory (she makes salted duck eggs out on her resort in the country) and threw it in a toasted burger bun with a slice of processed cheddar… UMAMI. BOMB.
It was the best, messiest, umamiest egg sandwich, ever.
Sugoi Ramen, Maha Sarakham
My review on Google Maps basically says it’s sugokunai. Mushy noodles and lukewarm broth are just not my thing, but Thais seem to love both. I just want to put some photos here.
