I never write comments but I just want to say I really enjoy watching your videos. Casual, practical, funny and the love between you and Joy is unmissable. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos. 😊
That was a great video.....I don't even think I can get the 5% skinny discount.....You chould be the Chiang Mai ambassador with the videos done so far.....Good work
Joy and I thank you! And I accept the nomination as ambassador! I will be that rare politician who will work diligently for the people of both Thailand and the USA!
Thanks for the support. Joy and I were just talking about all the positive feedback and how good it feels to put in so much work and have people recognize it. (:
@RetiredGlobalLife You're very welcomed remember time and patience equals understanding. Especially when married interculturales. I've done it and I see you.

Big mistake watching this right after they gym! I am now starving and can’t wait to get home to make an omelette. Though I will say, it probably won’t be as good as your looked. Love the vids! Keep them coming!
Hi Orawan. That is so cool a local like youis getting some helpful info from us. Drop us a comment and let us know how your meal was. BTW, Orawan is a great name. That is a Thai name, yes? Best wishes.
I am like you. Randy discovers places I didn't know. The ultimate tour guide with Joy as his Girl Friday. As he eventually retired from the law he can start a new career as a travel cinematographer .
You are a refreshing change from some other bloggers full of attitude. You need to hug on to your girlfriend and not let her go. She has a terrific smile. Glad I found your channel.
Loving your channel some great ideas how they have to get you a discount off breakfast I like the basket for the mobile phone which gives you a discount I would place my mobile inside it, nice video of you both
Thanks. The last time we were there, the animal trap boxes for 10% were nowhere to be seen, and instead there was a huge ceramic ice cream cone of all things. Haha, I think the owner loves finding odd things for his restaurant.
Just found your channel. Love it and love watching you both. Currently US expat living in Mexico. Headed to Thailand to check out the area for the next move. Keep the great vlogs coming.
You both make me smile 😊 the amount of love and kindness you both have for one another is heart warming. I feel blessed to have this with my husband and I adore seeing others enjoy their partners so much ❤ loving your videos and channel - thank you 😊
Martine, that is so nice of you. Yes, I feel so lucky to have her and I'm so glad she feels the same way about me. I think each of us having a lot of single time before we met helps us really appreciate having a partner in life.
I just watched this video before I had made my own breakfast. Big mistake! Excellent video! Shows what available for visitors and ex-pats in Chiang Mai that blends western and eastern culture.
Hi Beverly. Another viewer just said that. I'm really unhappy to hear that. There was no mention of a sale when we filmed it. I can only hope the new owner keeps it as is. It is such a fun and tasty place to go. If you learn more, you are now deputized as the official Retired Global Life reporter to keep us all up to date!
Haha. How about you give me 20 pounds. I could use them. I hope you will visit this place when you come. Also, right on the same street, just 100 yards away is Dash's. A good and very popular restaurant, very nicely lit in the evening. Owned by a Thai/Westerner, (Dash), completely fluent in both English and Thai, and he often greets all the people at the entrance himself.
I'm going to go on a crash diet to get the free breakfast.😅.Probably be on life support before I get there . You're the most romantic RUclipsr couple . I expect to get an invite to the wedding soon. Btw, did you get an extra discount for the publicity?
Yes, we are quite romantic I will admit. Re a discount, I can honestly tell you no, we never ask for a discount for any of the places that we talk about on our videos. We want to tell people about Chiang Mai and have more fun when they come here, and have fun making videos. So no deals for anything free. Hmm, but I'd love a free smoothie on a hot day. Haha, just kidding.
Hi Billy. It depends on the price range of course and the part of town you like. I can recommend the Away Chiang Mai Tha Pae Resort. It is a block from the Tha Pae gate on a quiet soi, breakfast in included (although it's vegan but still quite good if you can get over no eggs). A nice quiet pool, great staff and very nice rooms with big terraces. I think the daily rate is about $80, so on the high side for CM, but if you stay for more than 30 days with Trip.com it will be reduced 50% normally. I hope this helps.
You don't like the place we showed in the video? If you don't mind paying a lot, the Kantary Hills hotel has a nice big buffet and omelet bar. It is in Nimman. But I usually don't go out of breakfast, sorry. Most Thails eat the same things for breakfast as lunch and dinner. Maybe a viewer will add some suggestions.
Thanks. Yeah I've spoken to many people who don't remember it, so I'm not sure if people walk right past it or they added it. They do change a lot. Suddenly one day there was s giant plastic ice cream cone in front of the place, 555.
Can discern a very good spirit in your gf..if half of you gets through 10% does that give you an additional 5% ? Nice place, saw on couple other blogs also..for more German flavor there is a great Sunday buffet at Auf der Au..thx for the well presented vid 🙏🏻👍🏻
Haha, Kevin, if they had that in the US, they'd be hit with lawsuits immediately. Nice to see we can have fun with such things here with no claims of discrimination and stuff like that. Best wishes!
We are working on making more. 🙂. Our channel is only a couple months old and Joy and I each still have jobs, so we are not full time RUclipsrs like many are. We do it for fun, and we will soon have another one up. Best wishes.
Oh, that is such a bummer! When we filmed this there was no indication of that. Do you know if the plan is for someone to keep the same restaurant going? I hope so. I'll miss it if it disappears.
@@RetiredGlobalLife Someone will have to pay to take over the interieur. If they are wise they will keep the same concept because it is rather succesfull for years already.
Hmmm I thought the spirit cloths were Tibetan Buddhist prayer flags... I couldn't see the script on them though... But I thought I saw a Lungta one with a wind horse. There are some Tibetan Buddhists in Thailand.
while i agree the food looked great, that is an expensive breakfast for chiang mai.....even though i lived in BK for many years, i never one went out for breakfast...just had my coffee and that was it...but it looks like all of thailand has become expensive and it is no longer the cheap place of 20 years ago...
There is still a great number of cheap options. If you watch our Living Costs video you will see plenty of delicious Thai food meals for about $1.50. But there are also these more expensive options.

Jenny that is such a wonderfully nice comment. Joy will enjoy seeing it as well. Many thanks and we hope you keep enjoying them.

Wow 9 videos and 1.42k subs!! I'm not suprised though really good content.
Thanks for the support. Joy and I were just talking about all the positive feedback and how good it feels to put in so much work and have people recognize it. (:
You two look very happy together.
Yes we are and thanks for noticing. Crossing my fingers nothing changes in my life.
Your love for her is bursting off my screan ❤❤❤
Joy often reads the comments, so she will be happy to see my love for her is easily seen. Thanks for the nice comment.
@RetiredGlobalLife You're very welcomed remember time and patience equals understanding. Especially when married interculturales.
I've done it and I see you.
I enjoyed your joy - thanks for the smiles...
Joy and I thank you! Best wishes and see you again.
Looks like a fun restaurant. Thanks for the video.
Yes, lots of fun. A subscriber just told me the owner is selling. Bummer. I hope the new owner changes nothing.

It’s nice place for breakfast ! ℹ love your vidéos . Your Happy Family. Continue your beautiful life 💙🩵💕🌷🌟🎈
Will do, Marie. Thanks. I hope you have the same in your life. Best wishes.
I live here in Chiangmai, and now learning new places from your clip. Thanks!

Another great video pops! Love seeing you two having so much fun together 😊
Thanks, Hailey, Thanks for checking out your Pop's channel. (:
Thank you for sharing. That was fun to watch. The food looks great.
Thanks! Yes, a fun place with really good food and a ton of choices. Best wishes.

No worries, I cherish her and she knows it. Thanks for watching!
So much joy radiating from both of you 🌞.
Thank you! We have so much fun being together, and filming together, I'm glad it shows.
I really like your content guys. Subscribed now so looking forward to all your new vids as they drop 👍
Thanks so much, Mark. Much appreciated.

fun place - you skinny devil you :) food looked very tasty and the price good for two 'healthy' portions.. thank you -
Thanks, Erika. Yes, skinny as ever, but now it's saving me money!
I just watched this video before I had made my own breakfast. Big mistake! Excellent video! Shows what available for visitors and ex-pats in Chiang Mai that blends western and eastern culture.
Haha, there is always tomorrow! Thanks for the nice comment.
What a nice place for breakfast!! I love your videos, and the joy you both radiate, even if Randy's not named Joy!
Thank you! I hear the place is now up for sale. Hopefully the new owners will keep it al is. Thanks for the nice compliment.
Great videos guys and great information without being touristy or promotional. Keep ‘em coming!
That is a very nice compliment, Chuck. Thank you from both of us!
Looks like a nice place.
Very nice, yes. I hear it is for sale. Hopefully the new owner won't change things.
Great video, I want to eat at this restaurant!
It is waiting for you. Really good food and how many places are also fun to visit as well.
Food look yummy
Thanks it was very, very good, and also a fun place to just hang out and friendly people.
not that cheap the breakfast place, but is lovely your video
Thanks, yes, not everyplace in Thailand is cheap. But a fun place to go and still cheaper than in most places. Best wishes.
Breakfast World is being SOLD, they are advertising to try to find a buyer. And they are one of the BEST breakfast places on the planet!

@@RetiredGlobalLife Righto! Happy to do that!
I'll be staying near there when I visit in October (preparing to move in May or June). Let's just say I won't be getting any discount!😂

We're staying at Nap in Chaing Mai what is a great place for breakfast as we don't have breakfast please 🙂

Good job, 10% off, Randy
Haha, it took me a minute to get the 10% reference - skinny me at breakfast. So that will be my new nickname.

Thanks, Norris. Yes, she is wonderful. No, they make you get all the way through! But maybe you can negotiate, haha.
Some Americans would not be able to fit through the FULL PRICE entrance!
Haha, Kevin, if they had that in the US, they'd be hit with lawsuits immediately. Nice to see we can have fun with such things here with no claims of discrimination and stuff like that. Best wishes!
you need to make more video
We are working on making more. 🙂. Our channel is only a couple months old and Joy and I each still have jobs, so we are not full time RUclipsrs like many are. We do it for fun, and we will soon have another one up. Best wishes.
