Re: Bangkok Field Report
 

Hi Big bros and Season Handlers :)

Need some advice, i a pretty much regular to JKT and love the experience at CJs and BATS.. and i like that kind of environment.. Abit of fishing skills needed.

Are there anything similar or close to it in BKK? I'll be going up month end and most likely staying at On8 Sukhumvit and probably be hitting RCA since im there but i am wondering if there are other hotels with the same concept as CJs and BATS.. appreciate ur kind advice :)

Re: Bangkok Field Report
 

As bro cakeman says, $100 or thereabouts for hennesy. But if ur at RCA, just do with the typical red/green label johnny walker will do, much cheaper. I believe most of us are there to pick up chicks and not sip alcohol and enjoy music.

Unlike SG clubs, nobody gives 2 hoots if its a green label or blue label johnny walker, if its a moet or a cristal, or if its the number of drinks and bottles you have on your table. Smile, pluck up your courage and talk to these thai chicks and you will realise that they are very friendly people. No need for flashy bottles :)

P.S. I actually hate the johnny walkers in BKK, it is horrible to drink. If you are a regular drinker, stick to the black or blue or a hennesy... Trust me :cool:

Re: Bangkok Field Report
 

I dun think you know much about Johnnie Walker. Since when is Green label cheap? Typically Red and Black are cheaper and follow by Green, Gold, Blue while Swing is about the same or higher price compare with Green label.

Red and Black are popular in Thailand due to price and most youngsters drink whisky with mixtures like coke and soda.

Blue label is good by drinking with or without ice and no mixture and they are too expensive for normal Thai and even SG.

Hennessy or cognac is not popular among the youngsters in Thailand. I always see them drink Johnnie Walker or Chivas in pubs and disco. Sometimes 100pipers.... Maybe most entertainment joints dun sell cognac, brandy....

Re: Bangkok Field Report
 

Well said.

By right should not mix with any beverage when drinking scotch whisky.

Looking for ONS at pubs is not impossible but not easy to pull off.

Have been trying for years but same luck as you. :p

Soapy Massage Parlours confirm can tarma.
Just tell the cheer guest you want sandwich. :D

During younger days very gungho.
Can spend money like water running from tap.
So JW Black Label is on the menu all the time.

Now getting older + more broke (see above) can only afford to sip 100 Pipers in one corner to avoid embarrasment. :o
Oops I forgot those Hi-So pubs don't sell 100 Pipers.
Haizzz have to stick to Khaosan pubs liao. :(

Re: Bangkok Field Report
 

Once in awhile will drink their local Thai whisky with local friends. Definitely will get drunk and it is damn cheap and easily available in 7-11. Normally I drink whisky on the rock but Thai whisky, I need to add in coke. :D

CNY treated myself a bottle of Otard XO.

It has been years since I was sitting in Khaosan drinking beer during happy hours.

Anyone has any update on this??? :D

Re: Bangkok Field Report
 

Hi bro! See u have been to Patts! Back home already?
A bit of water also to bring out the flavours and aromas. I never believe in buying expensive whisky and adding all those mixers. Waste of money. 100 Pipers or Black (coz Johnny Red really tastes bad even with mixers).

U lucky bastard. U smelled all the pussies and they were orderless?

Hi-so guy... drink wine now... me still 100 Pipers or lao kao

Not Saphan Kwai meh? U in back in CP now?

Re: Bangkok Field Report
 

As mentioned, enjoying life now. Cannot tahan too many ppl with music and song blasting my ears. Slow music, jazz blues is more for me, an old man.

Re: Bangkok Field Report
 

I think in Thailand don't have to resort to go for Happy Hour beers.
Only in Singapore. :D

Will drink 100 Pipers over JW Red label any day.

Too much circulation of fake Red Wine in China.
Phobia about Red Wine these days!
Even Green Tea, Mineral Water, Coke, etc. also have fakes! :eek:

At Saphan Khwai Agogo Bars must be even more Lo-SoBudget.
Drink Leo beer only. Cheaper than Singha and Heineken leh. :o

Yes back in Changping, Dongguan.
~Men's Paradise, Women's Bank~
:p

Re: Bangkok Field Report
 

太子 commented that he bought a bottle of Double Blk Johnny at Suvarnabhumi. Brought to club in Bangkok. Friend also ordered double blk at club. Both tasted very different with the club bought Double Blk tasting worst. So that means also have fake liquor in Thailand. Is that why its so cheap too? :eek:

Now-a-days I stick to soda manao coz must rest old liver or else its good old Sangsom!

Re: Bangkok Field Report
 

Who is 太子? :confused:

First choice will always be to drink bottles bought from DFS Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, etc.
I will not consider buying from DFS Thailand. Haha.
Some more the price in DFS Singapore usually cheaper.

China being the worst for the most no. of fake alcohol.
The JW and Chivas whisky in Thailand I find it's more like watered down.

1) China
2) Vietnam
3) Thailand

Too much Sangsom is also not good for health.
Although cheap but that stuff is potent!
Go for Single Malt Whisky.
All the hardcore drinkers I know told me this.

Alternatively can just stick to this. :D
