Apple Entertainment vs Emperor.
[QUOTE=Golfinho;2196914]You've see this 'widely reported' like where? So, why didn't you go and check it out yourself? I've never seen a westerner in the place, although with party action starting at about 9:30 (til 1:30 or so) it may not be the vibe for an old grandpa (but you could go when they open at 7:00 and be the only one there). At any rate, below ground floor disco pub is same setup as before, only newer but with same uniformed militars and tip hound waiters. 10 k kyat admission waived if staying in hotel. Hotel (50 usd) floors 5-6-7, KTV rooms lower floors, with resto at top floor. Rooms nice view but entirely Chinese in style as is the whole place: ethnic chinese ownership and clientele (no friendly Burmese Buddhist manners here). Girls: lots. Several groups of fashion show ladies, with mamasans sitting in the back. Price quotes 120 k with 50 k going to the house for fashion ladies. Others 100 k quoted. Location 12-15 easy minutes from airport is in pleasant, quiet part of town, short stroll to food options and amenities. With airport proximity, it's good to go direct from airport when you arrive, then a couple days on the way out. Other hotels nearby, but it would compromise for convenience with the girls as they try to short time. (I'm a 'medium time' partaker, preferring a good sleep with late wakeupping.) At DL, some stay all night, others will bail at 1:30 am To go home with their group, friends, mamasan, whatever. When the government shut down Mingalar, some of the other clubs reincarnated as well in various places closer to downtown. But, you've no doubt seen this widely reported.[/QUOTE]How does Apple Entertainment compare with Emperor? I am landing quite late (10 PM) but would like to get some action. Staying on 1.5 days, so want to make use of the the 2 nights I am there. Logistically, it seems a good idea to stay at the Diamond Lake Hotel as I fear to get in too late downtown to go to Emperor. Any advice?
Apple Bar, the former JJ, field report
Apple Bar is the rebirth of JJ. The management is the same. Recently I used my reward miles to Yangon, have not been here for over a year. Apple Bar is in the Diamond Lake Hotel. It is really really far from the central Yangon. So expect to pay 20 to 30 K for round trip taxi. I made 2 visit to Apple Bar during my stay.
The entrance fee is 15 k. The system is similar to JJ or Emperor. There are two types of ladies, the ones that do the fashion show and the ones that hang around the disco, but all girls are managed by mamasans. The girls and mamasans have really limited English, so they always call some concierge guy to translate, but these concierge are aggressive in demanding tips.
My first visit, after walking around many loops checking myself and also mamasans many rounds bringing girls to show me, I decided on one of the girl mamasan shown to me, her face was pretty, look very nice in her dress, slim, she was a normal girl (non show girl), quote me 100 K. I asked a few normal girls their price, some are firm on 100 k, but some are willing to get a pay cut.
This girl was okay with 90 k, but has to go at 6 am, claimed has to go school. She called her regular taxi to send us back to my hotel, a really long ride. The session was quite okay, very gentle, tits were a little too soft for my liking, but very accommodating, condom-up-to-me kind of attitude, but I learned my lessons before, used my reliable super thin, morning before she left, even asked me if I want one more time, very nice girl.
My second visit, I decided to take a room at that hotel, it is 50 USD a night, got a high floor nice view, the wifi is somewhat weak, but works, include breakfast. You get free entry if you show your room key. Second trip there were very few customers, so basically you can choose and pick slowly, there were several that are look alright for me, and one show girl with really nice shape and cute face. The male concierge explained to me how to take away the fashion show girl. It is similar to a bar fine, you have to buy a flower garland for 30 k for her, then she is reserved.
The concierge guy told me the fee is 100 k until morning, buy told me to confirm with her again. So I paid the 30 k garland for her. After the show, she came and I checked her more closely, nice face, late teen, price 100 k firm, will not accept less, can stay until 6 am, again claimed she needs to go school morning.
This one is not as accommodating as last one. I guess quite popular girl, using very expensive phone, but still quite friendly, let me do almost anything except deep kissing and licking her back door. Very nice firm tits, very slender tight body, so I don't demand too much from her. During the night, I had trouble sleeping, she let me do another round, but after that, she asked me if she can go home early because she had to prepare something for school, I knew it is excuse, I let her go, it was 3 30 am, these girls seem to have regular taxi drivers they call for sending.
Apple Bar is an alternative if you get bored of Emperor, the girls quality I would say pretty much the same, number wise, I think Emperor has a little more. It is a long long way from central Yangon, unless you spend the night at their hotel, the taxi fee, entry fee really add up. The standard price is 100 K, show girl garland 30 k extra, price still can be negotiated.
