  • What happens if you eat nothing but Thai street food for a month? Save money and put on weight or the other way round? #
  • Soon I will try an experiment to see if I will save money by eating out every day. Follow my quest at @EnjoyThaiFood #

  • I reckon if I eat out every day I will ultimately save money on my supermarket and electricity bills. #
