We’re launching on February 20th, and I’d love to invite anyone who saw this video to swing by, show me this comment, and enjoy a free drink on the house! 😉🍹🍻 Open 3 PM - 2 AM. Nick & Martin, you’re both more than welcome to come back once we’re fully up and running-not just for drinks but also to try out for free our amazing food from our in-house food unit, Baitoey! 🍽️ We’ve got a wide variety of delicious options for you both to try! Plus, there’s a huge pool tournament happening right next door from February 21-23, bringing in 400+ players-so it’s the perfect time to visit! Looking forward to seeing everyone at Grafters Pattaya soon-cheers! 🥂🎉 🇹🇭 🇹🇭!

I went looking for the fish and chip shop in LK Metro last week and was disappointed to find it was no longer there. Its good to see its been opened elsewhere but I didn't quite catch the new location? If its on Third road as I suspect, its a fair walk for people having had a few drinks in LK metro or even Tree Town. When it was in LK metro, it was so easy to jump in a baht bus and take a box of fish and chips back to ones home or room. However, I hope she does well.

[@alanpodmore6028]

Fantastic very interesting well done

[@rentenfuchs3025]

Fish and chips looked really good. But there is a problem with the type of fish they choose. Tilapias are fast-growing fish without great demands on food and water quality. Accordingly, they are often only fed waste, sometimes including wastewater from toilets. Tilapias are relatively often contaminated with drug residues, such as antibiotics. Especially when kept with shrimp.

[@bluezelos93]

Thats Nick ill again for another few days 😆

[@NDTViThailand]

Tasted okay to me and you can see the pure white colour. I'm usually someone who only eats cod but although it's not as good as cod it is a decent substitute and better than that dori they use.

[@NDTViThailand]

I think deep fried would kill off most diseases.

[@jonrend]

It's not like you eat the Talapias guts, lol. They are bottom feeders, but their meat is white, fluffy, and tasty as cheap cod alternative. Im assuming they are deboned cause very, boney. Tastier than Dori.

The electronic form replacing the TM6 in Thailand is called the "Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC)" which will be mandatory for all travelers entering the country starting May 1, 2025, essentially digitizing the traditional paper-based TM6 immigration form and streamlining the entry process. Key points about the TDAC: Function: It acts as the new online arrival and departure card, replacing the need to fill out a physical TM6 form. Benefits: Aims to simplify immigration procedures, reduce processing times, and improve tourist tracking. Access: Travelers can access and complete the TDAC online before arriving in Thailand.
