[QUOTE=Pthalo]La Café
Beware of having your taxi pulled over by the cops, which just happened to me, and shaken down. If it happens be sure and tell them (or have her tell them) that she is your girlfriend and you are coming from Cowboy Grill. NEVER tell them you are coming from LA Café. That worked for me and now I take a different route out of there than the main one.

Very true, same experience for me leaving LA. Taxi driver said I was in hotel that is frequented by diplomats and eventually police left as had second thoughts about shaking me down in case I had diplomatic friends etc. Pain in the arse they are

Hi fellow mongers,

Make sure you do not catch the Taxi right in front of LA cafe. Sometimes the girl may be in on the scam.
Walk with the girl on to Mabini and then catch a taxi.
There are several road blocks set up by the Police on the back roads especially after 1 am.
You can tell the taxi driver to stick to main roads. I have never seen any road blocks on the main streets.
Personally I was not hassled although I have gone through many road blocks.
accompanied by a girl.
These police may be looking for terrorists rather than the shake down.

Sopwith: EDSA Complex is for you. Bf is 1000, and for LT girls want 2000, so its 1000 more than you are used to but still not too bad. Cotton Club has best % of good performers IMHO.

Taxi from airport should be no more than 75P on meter, but if arriving late at night will have hard time getting that rate unless you walk outside the terminal area along the road and flag down a regular taxi.

Hi all,

Despite the new name I was a Senior member until the wife caught up to me and my tracks had to be erased but I am back, me 13 th trip to Asia and 2nd to Manila.

I am on a whirlwind business trip to the Phils and need your sage counsel and will respond with same. My experiences lie mostly in Thailand but soon will be an expert in Phil as am establishing a business there.

I am in need of some highly trained proffesionals. I need bisexual women for the full on porno experiences.

I have a suite booked near to Edsa and would appreciatte any tips or numbers on 3 way sisters as I have limited time to invest on this trip in the search, whishing for an Edenn experence every ngiht.

Furthermore if there are any expats doing business there wul dlove to buy you lunch to discuss the potential pitfalls of a multinational operation with the Phils.

PM me I am a prooud paying member Jackson bailed me out big time by erasing my former persona and toyou all keep chanign those passwords boys.

I will be there in 2 weeks.

JJ

In addition to changing the passwords, recommend that byou also check that Just Jim isn't a name thats linked to any other sites you use. Such as YM MSN etc. I got caught out like that.

Addiotionally do a google serch of your old name. There might still be traces, again I also learnt this from experience.

Good luck in finding an Eden experience. I haven't found one yet like that in Phils.

I have found 3-somes to be pretty easy to get here and very worthwhile. However, if the girls being bi-sexual is important to you (it isn't for me) then that could take a little more work, but is still very possible.

Just pick a bar girl that you like (or really any other service provider) and tell her what you want. Ask if she has any co-workers/friends that she knows who would like to participate. She will, even if neither one of them has ever done this before. Make sure you specify to both of them that you want both in bed at the same time (else one may want to hide in the bathroom then switch, LOL.) If you want them to kiss each other, etc. tell them then.

I met a beautiful girl at EDSA (Casino), then the next time I made plans to see her she asked if she could bring someone. Both had big tits and it was a great time. That's how I usually do it, instead of barfining two girls at once. It's much cheaper. I usually will give them P3000 total for both.

I have also got them the same way from LA Cafe and from Amazonia. They are usually eager to give you what you want. Just ask! If you want a two-fer session right then, I'd recommend LA Cafe since most girls there ply their trade with a group of friends. I do recommend that you choose two girls who are friends, instead of just two hot girls that don't know each other. Things go much smoother that way.

Just arrived home from a trip to Manila. I usually go once every six months.

Made very elaborate plans to visit this place and that place. However, I stopped at the LA Café (as usual) and wound up not going to any other place. It was filled with a number of great gals, and I eventually picked one each night I was there. Yes, it also had a number of night creatures, but they can be avoided.

Also, did not know the LA Café took over the bar directly across the street, I guess they are trying to deal with the overflow crowd.

Lastly, I highly recommend you head the Sammon’s advice (recent post) regarding getting a cab in front of the LA Café. I actually forgot about the Police stopping mongers - which I have first hand knowledge of - and it was the girl who suggested walking a few blocks (separately) away form the LA Café to get a taxi. Also, the taxi drivers in front of the LA Café are bastards, they are trying to charge 200-300ps for a 75ps ride.

If your coming to Manila and plan on spending a lot of time at the LA Café I would recommend the Las Palmas Hotel. Its not the Ritz, however, for added safety you can walk back to this hotel separately. Just have your friend meet you in the lobby.

Also, the taxi drivers in front of the LA Café are bastards, they are trying to charge 200-300ps for a 75ps ride.[/QUOTE]Further to this useful suggestion, I find that it advantageous if you walk 50 yards, down the side road that adjoins LA Cafe, towards Roxas Boulevard (the seafront) onto the access road at the side of the same (ignoring the squawks of the girl who all seem to have a pathological fear of walking). Here you are guaranteed a normal (non rip-off) taxi plus you get where you are going a bit quicker (particularly if you are heading towards Pasay/Makati) as the driver can avoid the traffic on Del Pilar. Also your not getting eyeballed by 20+ starers on each passing jeepney whilst awaiting your cab (always have a paranoic fear of been seen by someone I know from my non-mongering life). As a frequent user of the Malate ST hotels, I find that I can sometimes save valuable minutes by this method, quite important if you've trapped a hot chick and have a horn the size of Africa: D

the cops want a bribe. they set up these "checkpoints" during the hours when it's time to take the girls back to the room. you notice, they have it at the places where all the taxis drive by. what they are looking for is id....if you or the girl does not have an id card, then they will take you to jail. you end up paying a bribe to be released. always carrry an id with you. if the girl does not have one, they will threaten to take her to jail and of course, you end up paying a bribe.

worse case scenario is if the girl is working with the cops and she is ****. i heard a ton of stories about this before but now it doesn't happen as much. still, be careful. many of the cab drivers in front of la works with the cops and they will purposely drive to the checkpoint and get a percentage of the bribe you will end up paying.

one time, i was just in the mood. i had my id and so did the girl. i finally looked at the cops and said, "i'm not a tourist and don't fuck with me. my friend is a politician and i will have him fuck your career." they both apologized and let me on their way. i also pulled out my camera phone and tried to take a picture and they started to freak out.

the taxis outside of la are a ripoff. it's also a one way there and it will take you directly to the checkpoints.

what i do is walk up the street to the 7-11, hail a cab and tell the cab driver to take roxas, make a u-turn and take buendia. ( i live in makati ) i insist and demand he follow my directions. works every time, there is no checkpoints in that direction and it always costs me less than 100 pesos to my home.

Its not the Ritz, however, for added safety you can walk back to this hotel separately. Just have your friend meet you in the lobby.[/QUOTE]I came 2 or 3 times before I stayed at Las Palmas and havent stayed anywhere else. Another 4 or 5 times I guess. The staff is friendly, rooms are decent actually, cafe in the lobby. Besides being 5-10 minute walk to LA its 5 mins from Robinson's Mall. MMMM yummy eye candy there and great pick up spot. Almost always busy. Little convenience store across the street, pharmacy a block away, and a money changer across the street. Great setup.

I also always just end up at LA. If you are fairly patient you will find 10's and lots of 8-9's. Plus the atmosphere is relaxed. After chatting up a girl and we agree for her to come home with me, I ALWAYS give her 50p and tell her to meet me at the hotel and to leave 10 mins after me. Avoids ALL kinds of problems. Even if they dont know where it is, its so close they wont get confused.

Good points re transport from LA Cafe, but you are NEVER "guaranteed" an honest taxi in Manila. ALWAYS insist he turn on the meter before you even sit down. NEVER take a taxi that is waiting in front of a nightclub or LA Cafe.

If you want to stay within walking distance and have the dosh, the Diamond Hotel is 5star. Most guests are Japanese or Korean. The Executive Plaza, same block as Las Palmas, is about $50 and is fine but many rooms are noisy. The Cherry Blossoms in only a couple blocks further and is both cheaper and quieter.

If the girl complains about walking (many do), I find just saying "OK we'll pay the taxi from your tip" increases their enthusiasm for going as a pedestrian.

Used to get pulled over a lot in Makati when driving. One tip. And same for all LA cafe mongers. Is to photocopy your passport page and entry stamp.

It shows cop you are legitimate. But also your not handing over an important document which they will keep to get money from you.

They would always hate seeing my photocopied driving licence. But invariably meant I never paid anything.

And yes. Never be shy to namedrop. I even had a fake phone number of Mayor Jejomar Binay on my phone. And whenever I was stopped. Would show that I had his personal mobile number and ask them if I should call him. Of course I never did but they always let me go. Play the game they play.

The taxis have a number on the back. Text it with their license plate number and the details of them not using the meter along with the location.

It's always the same people in front of the clubs and if they start getting complaints, they will get fined.

May be because I drive a battered old van and they don't expect to see a foreigner driving such a vehicle. I was always extra careful near NAIA as this is a favourite haunt for bent traffic cops (they like to stop and shake down returning OFW's). A lot of times they are not really cops but uniformed civilian traffic enforcers who are really only there to try and keep the traffic flowing.

Couple of times I've been stopped in Las Pinas by these assholes. Both times it was because I was out driving on colour coded day, a stupid regulation that prohibits use of your vehicle at certain times on one day a week and dependant on your reg no. Both times a bribe of a couple of hundred pesos solved the problem.

Its easy getting a Philippine driving license (no test involved although you need a drugs test for some reason). But you are best having a Filipino along to help with the paperwork and greasing the right palms. All you need is your national license and some patience. With the help of a relative (who an expert fixer as many Filipinos are) it took about 2 hours and I had my cute blue license which you can use as ID in lieu of your passport.

For a short time, the best way to avoid those asshole cops is to just tell the girl to meet you at Sogo Hotel. It's a nice hotel....clean, safe, and just a few blocks away. Give her 50 pesos. Sogo caters to the short-timers. The cops won't mess with someone alone in a cab. I think it's only about 400 pesos at Sogo.

Or you can just walk about a 75 yards to Amazonia Hotel. It's not as nice as Sogo Hotel but you it will literally take you 20 seconds to walk there from LA Cafe.
