Bangkok Reports

[QUOTE=Pita123;1381907]Nice non-profit restaurant for tourists. I say that because the food is blander than it really should be.[/QUOTE][QUOTE=NicFrenchy;1381968]they also have a resort in Pattaya. Food's tasteless and aimed at clueless tourists, Avoid.[/QUOTE]I agree with you guys. Nothing is worse than eating bland Thai food. It is hard enough trying to find a good Thai restaurant in South Florida. I don't fly 23 hours MIA to BKK in order to get served the same sort of bland dishes I can find in Fort Lauderdale or indulge for that matter in the same style P4P available in my neck of the woods. I have no use for Farang Thai style restaurants that water down the flavor to suit tourists or cut costs. I am not necessarily talking about heat. Some Thai dishes are not meant to be hot, but all Thai cuisine is meant to be flavorful due to the rather liberal and complex use of herbs and seasonings employed by genuine Thai cooks. And when certain Thai dishes ARE meant to be hot, they should never be damped down for any reason. I hate it when I am asked how hot I want something. Serve it to me the way the cook would eat it. Better yet, don't ask because when a restaurant starts to ask this question it means they have already crossed the line and made certain compromises.

Besides Cabbages, Suda is another popular Thai tourist restaurant catering to the tastes of foreigners, specializing in bland food, and not serving the real deal.

I found it flavourful and spicy where it should. Besides I saw more Thai people in Cabbages and Condoms in Bangkok than tourists.

When I went it was 95% Farang.

I found it flavourful and spicy where it should.[/QUOTE]On most subjects Thai punter related you and I tend to agree, therefor on the Cabbages question; I guess we will have to just respectfully disagree. To further the conversation a little, here is a short list of some of my all-time favorite BKK restaurants:

Chote Chitr: address 146 Praeng Phuton Road, is a small storefront restaurant near the Royal Palace that serves up really good authentic Thai cuisine. Give them a try for lunch.

Bussaracum: address 1 Si Wiang Road (off Soi Pramuan) , is on the high end / gourmet quality spectrum of Thai restaurants, but just as authentic as Chote Chitr. This place is unbelievable. The set course lunch is a great deal considering the quality and number of selections and dinner at Bussaracum is one of the best choices in BKK at any price.

Rut & Lek: address Soi Texas off Thanon Yaowarat in Chinatown, also deserves honorable mention on my favorite BKK restaurants list. It is open only at night, but serves up some the best seafood you will find anywhere.

So try one of these restaurants next time you are in BKK and let me know what you think.

NB

I will be visiting for the first time in June I plan on spending four or five days in Bangkok and then two weeks in Pattaya. I have a late flight that does not get into BKK until 12:30 AM I want to get a hotel that is right in the heart of the action and easy for a newbe to BKK to figure out the scene and get some action on the first night. I was thinking of staying at the Nana Plaza hotel but I am open to any other suggestion from the board. I am looking for a modest price room. Where is a good place for a newbe to stay his first night so he can find the action late at night on the first night.

Thanks

Chris

[QUOTE=Wolvenvacht;1381951]When asking for the bill ("Check bin") they will give you a condom with your change.[/QUOTE]Is that what it was? I must have been drunk. I thought it was a really chewy, bad tasting after dinner mint.

Ground zero location, $50 a night, safe in room, decent pool, and the morning breakfast buffet is included in the price. If you don't end up liking the place just move after a day or two. Plenty of hotels in the area.

[QUOTE=Tir Alb; 1381638]Hi guys,

I am coming for a business trip for one week to Bangkok and would highly appreciate if you could provide some tips.

1. GF Hotels. What does girl friendly hotel means in Bangkok. Does it mean a girl can just come to my room at anytime be herself, or I can come with her to my room at any time. Most probably I will be staying at Amari Watergate, and I have read it is GF. But probably some of my business partners will be staying in the same hotel, so discretion is very important to me.[/QUOTE]In BKK it means that you can bring girls to your room and you don't have to pay joiner fee. It also means that you can have visitors that visits you (escorts / outcalls)

[QUOTE=Tir Alb; 1381638]4. Escort girls. Do you know of a good escort service / girl you would recommend.[/QUOTE]For outcalls you can also pick from a lot of the massage places. Check their websites for prices and pictures. Its a lot cheaper than actual escort services.

there is actually a great search function link in the upper right corner on every single site of this forum. click "advanced search", then "search single content forum", and remember to choose "show result as report".

[QUOTE=DRRonin;1381765]And also feel free to pass any STD's to the women in your life. I mean they asked for it right? And the chances are I won't be coming into contact with them or the guys they give them to and the girls they then pass them on to and so on infinitum.[/QUOTE]Preaching to the pus love character. Way to go. Kinda like pissing into the wind, isn't it.

[QUOTE=Fun Filled;1381846]Yes Both the train will stop at Phaya Thai. At Phaya thai you have to change the platform to take a train to Nana.[/QUOTE]Thanks for the response. It is great that I can take either trains and still get off at Phaya Thai.

[QUOTE=AussieDoug;1381862]The regular train goes to Phaya Thai, the airport express does not, it stops short and you would need to change trains, so the regular city line is the way to go. When you get off at Phaya Thai there is a lift down one floor and then another lift down another floor, not the same lift, and then a longer walk (about 100yds) to Phaya Thai station.[/QUOTE]Thanks, I will make sure to take the Regular train. Nice to know that there are lift going down even if they are 2 different lifts.

Had 12 hours between flights and was staying at the airport hotel. Slept off the first 6 hours than managed, during my shower, to get all my (only underwear) wet. Great free-balling for the next 4 hour flight.

Took it as a sign, go dressed (sans underpants) and headed over to the airport for the next Airport Rail Link to Makkasan. 90 baht dropped there to Makkasan. Quick ride there and I assumed a quick walk to linked next station (Petchaburi). Unfortunately, the link was not great had to get out of Makkasan walk along a construction site, cross a busy road and then walk to the next station, Petchaburi. Then one stop along (16 baht) to Sukhumvit and then a walk to Asok, down again two more blocks and over to the park at Sukhumvit Soi 8. I knew where I wanted to be.

It's a small bar, with girls out the front waiting. Very relaxed, semi-residential area. I was introduced to a girl (kow?) and taken upstairs (payment after). Into a small room. She asked me to relax and get ready and bought me a drink and then went off for a few minutes. I stripped off and she returned and started cleaning my dick.

She then started hoovering. She'd just finished eating so the chilli on mouth stung a little but she got her rhythm and the moisture and the movement and her tongue got me over the line in about 10 minutes. She offered full sex for 1100 baht (but I didn't know if it was 1100 more or 1100 incl BJ). I asked her if anal or BBFS was on the menu and she said no. Fair enough, more of a fantasy anyway. Nothing else too adventurous on offer, but I'm intrigued by two girls at once giving me a BBBJ. Who would take the CIM for me? Anyway, I came in her mouth and she then spat it out and cleaned me up. I got dressed and was on my way in 15 minutes.

All very pleasant and mechanical. No real connection but a fun experience and I could imagine very addictive if I was a single man in Bangkok. No stunner, but I've seen worse in Melbourne brothels getting paid a hell of a lot more for terrible service.

All damage was 840 baht (100 baht tip. 40 baht for water. 700 baht for service).

Going back, knowing how bad the connection is to Makkasan from Petchaburi, I took the Central line back to Phaya Thai (my dick would fall off just watching the hotties get on board at Siam, FUCK) and then the City line back to Airport, just in time for connecting flights. I'd avoid getting off at Makkasan and always get off at Phaya Thai because the connections are Makkasan are not good.

Also if you are staying at Novotel Suvarnabhumi, there is a shortcut via the back entrance to the hotel lobby that leads directly to the deserted suvarnabhumi Airport Rail Link station. Much better than taking the airport shuttle.

your description sounds like it could be either one. but [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord901][CodeWord901][/url]'s charges 800 for service, so i'm guessing it was lollipop. you were on soi 10, not soi 8.

i've yet to try lollipop. i've had some good experiences at [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord901][CodeWord901][/url]'s, but i really dislike some of their recent changes. the price went up to 800 baht, and a 30 minute time limit has been imposed. i like to hang out and chat a bit and feel up my technician. i like taking my time and i really dislike knowing there's a time limit. sadly the girl gets less business because of management's decision.
