How do you receive local calls? E. G. What number would someone say in Bangkok would call to reach you while you were in Bangkok?

I have T-Mobile USA and just use their roaming. Automatically changes when I enter a country. Along with that I get calls without any problems. I assume if you have to call another USA number in Bkk, you use the +1 before the area code. While in Bkk with friends we use the text feature to plan and set times to meet. The only problem, and it is big is that T-Mobile is only 2 G, so you have to be in a location that has WiFi.

One other thing, GRAB taxi service can be good and bad. Get the app and check the rate from your location to destination. Then wave a taxi and ask his price. Gives you leverage every time. Had one experience where the GRAB cab doubled the price listed. We exited that cab fast. But it was rush hour on Sukhumvit and we wanted to go to Rajadamnern Stadium to watch Muay Thai. Took BTS to National and caught a Tok-Tok instead.

"2nd floor" is a little confusing as it would be first floor for the numbering system of European countries. I believe it is the American way to label the ground as first floor, but in may countries the first floor is next floor up from the ground (where Twister is). So maybe we should call it the middle floor (one up from the ground level). Asia supposedly uses the European system: e.g. Ground floor, then next one is the first floor, but maybe their are Americanised exceptions.

Either the owners of Nana Plaza or some individual bar owners have more or less settled that issue that has indeed popped up here from time to time and caused a bit of confusion.

For as long as I can recall over the past few years, there has been a sign posted on the railing at the top of the escalator with something like "Mandarin Bar (Club?), Table Dancing, 2nd Floor" on it. Since the only one of the two Mandarin Bars there that can provide table dancing is the one right at the top of the escalator on the middle level and not the one up an additional flight of stairs, I would say whoever put that sign up decided the ground level is the 1st Floor.

And now there is a big banner above the lighted third level "Geisha" go-go bar sign that touts it as being "on the 3rd Floor."

An old friend of mine from Soi Cowboy said that she had moved and was now working in Nana Plaza. Good, I would like to see her again. Where are you working, I messaged her. Twitter bar (her spelling) was the answer. I googled Twitter bar in Nana plaza with no results. She messaged me again saying that she was at work now. I replied, where is Twitter bar? She replied: second floor with all the blue lights. I walked down to Twister. Ex rainbow bar and sat outside. She came out and grabbed me. I said. OHHH. This is Twitter bar.

Thais cannot pronounce Twister and hence would not know how to spell it as well. Twitter is about what is expected (more pronounceable for a Thai). Yes it was once the site of Rainbow 4, on the first/2nd floor.

Twister Bar is on the second floor.

There is a Twister BKK on the first floor.

The problem with these bars is that the marginal girls walk around hustling for drinks. The talent in Twister Bar at 11 PM was better than Twister BKK at midnight. At Twister Bar around 11 PM, couple of cuties walked in. They probably came back from their short time. Wondering what the talent level is at opening time. Twister Bar was moderately packed, with a lot of East Asians, which is a good sign for the that type of talent which I prefer.

I'm just kidding.

Good one Smoothy.

Huh? As you enter Nana, the bar on the second floor, right corner, right side. Obviously one of us has the name mixed up. I will check tonight.

I think there is 1 girl in there who is 100% real girl. I believe the rest are lady boys.

Most bars have shitty music, at least for my age, it is mostly not great and too loud.

Try Sexy Nights in Nana. Good music there.

- I do have to give a thumbs up to Twisters. I liked their sign at the front which said, "100% Real Girls". Talent level was decent.

- WTF! Did they stop the full nudity at Nana. Billboards was only topless. The dancers at Spankys were topless. Although I did see some full nudity at Spanky or Angelwitch during one of their shows.

- That poster was right. The talent level at Soi Cowboy's Crazy House is not as good as it was 2 years ago. There are a few cuties, but many are marginal full figure girls. At least there is full nudity still.

- Long Gun had the ping pong shows. No rip off potential like Patong. Those girls had amazing accuracy with their pussy darts. Probably around 90%. But most of the girls were on the ugly side.

Suzie Wong and Sheba used to be the best, and Long Gun in the old days, 10 to 15 years ago.

Don't forget My Place on Soi Cowboy. You were saying you liked Shebas in 2010. That was around the time My Place was rockin' and had great shows and great girls. I almost completely stopped going to Shebas in 2008 when I discovered My Place had better looking girls and better shows. I was never a big fan of Suzie Wong. The place always seems so dirty. The best shows I ever saw were at Hollywood bar in Nana around 2001. That 12 girl lesbian show where they formed a 12 girl circle was awesome.

Someone in Thailand would have to call your US number. That said everyone I have met in Thailand has Whatsapp, Viber or Line. I reserve my Pattaya airport transfer through Whatsapp. I'm a world traveler who visits 4 or 5 countries a year. I'd hate to have a number in each country plus my US number. If I was an expat living in Thailand a local SIM might make more sense.

Hi guys,

Has anyone visited this area recently? I read that a few of the bars were closed by police but I would like to have a look if it is still in business. Broaden my horizons or just get a new supply of new talent.

There is a deadicsted thread about this area that I created. Just scroll down the forum list of threads and you will see it. Here is the link for you anyways:
