It runs between Nebkaharbs and Petchkasem Roads.
If you head north on Petchkasem, go past the Bankgkok and Kasikorn banks and head on till you come to Tsutsaya Video/Hai Pieng Restaurant on your left, it's almost directly opposite. In fact if you reach the restaurant, you've gone about 30 yds too far.

I don't know the area very well or that restaurant.
Would it be within B1 or B2 on your street map or is it further North and off the map ? Thanks.
Also is there anything there to attract tourists ? Bars,shops etc ?

Coming into town from the North it is just after the Tesco filling station on the same side.

Look at E8
It's not far from the large Shell station, but at the opposite side of it.
(Between the sea and Phetkasem Road).
I intend to live forever - so far so good.

B1.
You can just see Tananchai. That's a hotel and soi 51 runs the other side of that. If you're after the restaurant, then I'm pretty sure it's actually on the small extension part of the soi that leads off Nabkards to the sea. Therefore, just above C1.
There are a few karaoke bars, and one open air place that gets very popular with students at weekends along the main part of the soi - The Music Room. Does good value beer and food.

Spot on, Norseman.
Look at the area map, Pagey and you'll see it. Not the city map that I was referring to.

OK chaps, found it on the area map, a bit far out of town for passing trade.
It wasn't the restaurant BTW.
Thanks fellas, top answers and quick as usual.
(booking my flights for mid July so I may be around although I am business hunting in the region)
