A friend is heading to Thailand and he is VERY allergic to shellfish. Any advice on how to say this in Thai??
Anil, at Suk 11 Guest House, made this page. You can copy and print them to be perfectly clear.

CurtThats handy .
Not sure but the shellfish one , reads "Chan Paae Hawy" , which would cover mussels , oysters , whelks etc. , but probably not prawns etc.
ChangFai,You have a good point there. This might be a bit clearer
ผมแพ้อาหารทะเล แต่ไม่แพ้อาหารที่ทำด้วยปลา
It is bit more polite by using 'phom' instead of 'chan' and it says 'I amalergic to seafood except for food made of fish.'
I find this board a VERY strange place sometimes !
Allergic is 'paae' .
Seafood is 'Ahaan Talay'
Add Phom (Male) or Chan (Female) in front of it .
Phom paae ahaan talay .
I am not fluent in Thai , but thats how I would do it .
