i gave the KO girl bht500 tip.

Used to be a member at Spago. Found better places to park my membership money at. Haha. Have not been here for ages so pricing might have increased over the years.
Lady Drinks (Time Charge):
1st 45min usually starts with 2 drinks for most places.
3 Hours = THB1500 (5 Drinks)
Additional Drinks:
[You] THB150-200 (4 Beers) = THB600-800
[PR] THB300 (? Cocktails) = THBXXX
[Mamasan] THB300 (1 Cocktail. I usually close one eye to this. Take it as tip to her.)
Service Charge: THB100
If you worked out the math. Perhaps your PR has about 5 cocktails? Your bill is about right. If you want to damage control. Sign for every slip when your PR request for a cocktail. Check the quantity of drinks written. Scan through all those slips when you settle the bill. Scrutinsed those without your signature. Best is to just open a bottle of whisky and utilise the bottle. Just pay for mixers and ice. This is easier to keep track than to remember how many drinks and cocktails are ordered. Whisky is rather cheap and don't worry if the PR drinks like a fish. You never know what surprises you'll get with a drunken PR. French kisses and some rubba rubba.
Unless you want to followup THB500 tip is too much for such places but it's up to individual. If you behave like a carrot head in clubs/KTVs. They'll just chop you for what you are worth. Sometimes chop a little bit is ok. When they are happy you'll also get good service.
