Inch Bar, Esplanade Zone

Posted in Bars

Last week when I wrote a review on Snop bar in Ratchada soi 4, I did mention that I might add a couple more on those in Esplanade Zone the opposite side of the road so today I want to begin with my favourite club in this particular area: Inch bar that is!
The club: Lovely [...]

Muse Bar, Thonglor-Ekamai

Posted in Bars

OK this is another recently opened bar in the Ekamai/Thonglor area. It’s run by the same guy who owned Booze bar that has gone out of business due to stiff competition from Nunglen, Jet and Curve. But now he’s back with a couple of other investors on a revenge mission hoping to raise the bar [...]

Bar Toilet Attendants - A Help Or A Hindrance?

Posted in Bars, My Thoughts

You know how fun it is to go clubbing in Bangkok. We all enjoy the unrivalled benefits of free entry, cheap booze and lovely fellow party goers. So everyone thinks it is absolutely pain-free to go on a night out in Bangkok. Well, not entirely right because after a few beers you probably need a [...]

Snop Bar, Ratchada Soi 4

Posted in Bars

OK I did end up going out with my mates last Friday and agreed to meet up in Ekamai (again) but before that we went down Sukhumvit past Asoke to Ratchada soi 4 to check this Snop bar out for a bit. We got there a bit late thanks to heavy traffic and only had [...]

08-08-08 = Lucky Night In Bangkok?

It’s been a long, shattering week for me. I’m feeling a bit shitty. In fact, I ain’t felt this knackered in quite a while and really can’t wait to hit the sack. I’d promised myself to take it easy and stay in this weekend BUT somehow my mates are all so itching to go out [...]

Nunglen Club, Ekamai

Posted in Bars

In Bangkok there’s tonnes of wicked bars and of all sorts for everyone. Today I’m going to talk about another club in soi Ekamai which is apparently run by the son of the owner of Singha beer and is also extremely popular among many, including some of my mates. It’s called Nunglen meaning ’sitting [...]

How To Go Out On A Budget

Like most young people in Bangkok, I enjoy going out for a beer or two after a long week at work. There’s one major problem that I’ve encountered though; it usually spirals out of control and ends up costing me more than what my nightly budget allows. And there’s a reason for this: a pub [...]

Jet Club (Ekamai)

Posted in Bars

Right, yesterday the alcohol ban thankfully came to end so everyone was pretty much on the same mission: going out and getting smashed! To begin with, I went out for a beer with some mates despite it chucking it down big time. Normally I wouldn’t have bothered getting rained on but I was too gasping [...]

Buddhist Holidays …..

Posted in Bars, My Thoughts

This week we have two back-to-back Buddhist holidays which are observed throughout Thailand and sure enough the not so-much-needed alcohol ban is in full swing! Naturally for a religious country like Thailand, quite a few people will visit temples to do their moral deeds and offer foodstuffs and shit to the monks residing there.

As a [...]

Curve Bar, Ekamai

Posted in Bars

This recently opened bar derives its name from its eye-catching architecture. It’s located in the middle of soi Ekamai opposite Health Land and about a hundred metres away from another busy club Nunglen
The decor: Thanks to its crescent-shaped design, Curve offers a somewhat refreshing alternative to the conventional box layout adopted by most clubs in [...]
