Tawandang seeks new site
 

Report from Bangkok Post dated Monday 30 January 2006 :-

Tawandang seeks new site

By Bamrung Amnatcharoenrit

Tawandang German Brewery Co is looking for a location to construct its third micro-brewery and restaurant, with a budget of more than 100 million baht.

No time frame has been set for construction because the company feels such a huge investment needs careful consideration at a time of economic uncertainty.

Rama V Road is one potential location for the new venue.

Supote Teerawatanachai, the company's managing director, said the site required at least two rai to construct a unique Tawandang hall, and at least three rai for parking.

Despite slowing economic growth, Mr Supote said, the concept of Tawandang remained popular because customers got more for their money, enjoying beer, food and entertainment in one package.

Most importantly, he said, Thai consumers liked to try something new, creating further business opportunity.

The new establishment will be different from the existing two sites, with a unique stage show as its selling point.

Ms Supote said he didn't need to worry about the food and drink side of the business as it had been consistently successful since the company was first launched.

The first brewery house was opened in 1999 on Rama III and broke even after two-and-a-half years. The six-rai site has an 1,800-seat capacity, with 1,200 litres of beer sold each day.

The show focuses on musical theatre, and 20 million baht was invested in stage construction, decoration and production.

The second branch was opened in September last year on a 10-rai plot on Ram Intra Road. It has more than 2,000 seats and the show focuses on performance art.

In just three months it became popular, not only with beer drinkers, but also families. Occupancy rate of seats is 60-70% during weekdays, while at weekends it is full. 1,000 litres of beer are sold per day.

The company is also considering maximising business potential at the second branch by turning it into a venue for functions during the day. Mr Supote said he thought it would be a popular choice as there was great demand in the market and it would be cheaper than a five-star hotel.

Asked about anti-alcohol campaigns and the proposed new law that would ban media advertising of alcohol products, he said the impact on the company was marginal as it had not generally promoted its brand through traditional media.

But he said people had tightened their belts amid inflation caused by rising oil prices.He also said the company was seeing a lower margin because the cost of ingredients had started to rise, while its menu prices remained unchanged.

a good mico-brewery i recommend is in future park rangsit. they have live performance and its quite pack every nite.

Kao Yai BBQ Buffet
 

Hi brothers I have one good and cheap eating place to recommend. Pricing is similiar to Moo Kar Tah BBQ buffet. About 89B per pax. Although not much variety but the nam cheem (sauce) is so much better. Not as crowded as Moo Kar Tah in Ratchada as it's more like a 'neighbourhood' joint. Many nice pub restaurants in the vicinity such as Chaleang, Glass Home, Leelawadee, etc.

Might be quite hard to find. It is behind Town In Town Hotel. In front of All Star MP/Karaoke which I've yet to investigate. ;)

Guys please post any feedback if you check it out.

Kao Sai BBQ Buffet
 

Correction this place should be called Kao Sai and not Kao Yai as previously posted.

Hehe..since we already have a Nana Prince (the one who feeds on his agogo gf and stalks his parents 5rm flat, hehe), you can be the Neneh Prince then.
I can sacrifice to be your wingman but this wingman must have share in the spoils (i.e. this sulltry babe), hehehe.
Some wingmen tactics:
-When she is around, we come pick you up in big limo (actually just a taxi)complete with personal assistants and treat you like billionaire. You then remember to tip us with thousands of baht, hehe.
Always wear your tinted glasses 'cos you don't want her to see you staring at her ni ni all the time. Also chew lots of gum so that your drooling tongue is under control.
-We tell her big overseas businesses tales about you (personal jet,helicopter, cruise ship but all not in Thailand).
-We praise till the sky fall down about your virtues (not married, no fooling ard, no vices). :D

Rotiboy
 

Walau the Rotiboy bakery store at Siam Square has an endless queue! Didn't believe it until I saw it with my own eyes. Big bucks boyyy! How are those franchises in Singapore doing? Good to invest boh? $$$.

Re: Eating in Bangkok
 

I also saw the queue at rotiboy around the paragon shopping center.. just like SG when it first open.. SG rotiboy now don't need to queue anymore leh.. maybe i go at the odd time :) .. saw the rotiboy being featured in the free thai entertainment magazine.. no wonder so many ppl go queue

Rotiboy
 

Anyway it's just hype. Monkey see monkey do. Will die off in no time as usual.

Re: Rotiboy
 

I think the SG boss must be squeezing his balls for letting his thai partner to have the Siam Square branch, I heard from my friend there's another one in Sukhumvit which he's in charge of but the branch is apparently not doing better than the Siam Square one.

Rotiboy
 

Kekeke bang balls man.

By the way Siam Square rental price can be even more expensive than Orchard Road malls!
