Just in case anything has changed from the below reports, I have the option of spending a night in Nakhon Phanom or a night in Mukdahan. Is either more likely to present some fun?

One of the few reasons Cyrcee was interesting amongst the happiness was that it had its ducks in a row and good control over its staff. Sadly this has ended at Cyrcee with the foreign customer,...

Are you sure about the 3,200 baht per night. That's about $90 per night but for that room next weekend the cheapest I find is $165 per night. I don't mind paying a late booking premium but nearly...

Am currently in CR but out of any major town. A window has come up for a long weekend break this weekend. I see the options as San Jose or Puerto Vieja. Is the latter option crazy if I'm looking for...

You are lucky to still be alive with such low ball activity. Let this be a lesson to other tourists who do not speak Khmer. $10 will never be the agreed price. If you think that's the quote something...

Great report, thanks. The Drunken Sponge is now a (mostly English) expat hangout, you're more likely to meet a journalist there than a working girl these days though. Zambezi was indeed called Banana...

Blue Mountain was a house up the hill a bit from the main town. There was also another Viet house a hundred meters down the road from it. To my knowledge both are unfortunately closed. If it is a...

Pickled Parrot works fine for me, particularly their top room which is nice for the price of it. Location is perfect and the Aussie bar downstairs is chilled with great staff. Street 104 bars outside...

Visited Tulip yesterday (Sunday) afternoon about five. Went downstairs and business was obviously slow as there were about ten girls to chose from, more than I've seen in any trip there. The line up...

All, looks like I will be staying at Century Park Hotel next month as a result of circumstances. Does anyone have experience of this hotel when it coes to being GF? Have searched forum to no avail -...

Correct. The handout maps place the River in what looks like East to West at the bottom. In fact the river runs North South. Following this through, Roguesta's ascertion that Street 70 is west of the...

1,900 Baht for the minibus a couple of months ago and still at that price on their website. A little pricier than a street car but it makes the journey a pleasure so I did it both ways!

Stayed...

Don't you mean "Owner was Bruno". LOL

Apocolypse Now is surely confined to the film version forever more!

I speak good Khmer and would say it is definitely not tonal. However, not trusting myself I have Googled this and come up with the following on the trusty Wikipedia.

Not quite the case in Phnom Penh. The last reliable count I saw on ATM's was approaching 40 across the (relatively small) city. There are ATM's not only at major banks but also at Caltex petrol...

Just to reiterate PT's advice.

The walking away part is absolutely crucial. It's a difficult concept for the western shopper but is standard practice in Asia. Shop like a local, pay like a local...

Top work wtboatr, I'll be enjoying the delights of Yangon in a couple of weeks and your posts have made my mouth water! Full report to follow once I've been!

On the Hotel scene would anyone have...

No problems whatsoever in FCC. As they are restaurant based what goes on in the room side of the business goes largely unnoticed. Well done scoring a room there - they are booked solid most of the...

Priceless. Only in Thailand!

Interesting idea. Can someone please enquire as to what Cyrcee charges to take one of the girls out and for how long they'd stay out!

Much obliged.

David, you've got plenty of interest from my PC!

Went to Machtlfinger Strasse yesterday on the advice of posters below. Initially tried number 24, but I wasn't sure which of the two buildings at the back the forum had mentioned. Tried the main...

I guess they're working on the premis that what you're about to get up to will be thirsty work and therefore you need a drink. Compelling logic when you think about it!

perish the day the khmer's get their act together to even consider it!

I imagine you are talking about the very start of Plau Kampuchea Krom just beside the Phsar Thmei, on the same small block as Pacific Kiss club. I frequent a couple of shops there. One is ABC and the...
