The bar the other side from The Star of her sticky out bar was where I once spent a Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday morning in. When I got back to my room after a 72 hour session I switched on the telly and saw that Princess Di had died... It was later taken over by Allen (A BSC Engineer). He did well but later realised that the amount that he "bought" it for was only an annual lease .. I used to shoot pool in the back of that place once in awhile. It was one of the only places in Patpong open during the May 2010 Red Shirt Uprising / curfew. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The food delivery apps have turned over priced Pattaya Indian food on its head... How about Tikka Masala Chicken and Rice and Naan bread for 129 Baht....But no Leo included..A current offering,that I just ordered the other day..

I was typing the question of where you ordered when I saw your reply. Had the same thought, most, if maybe not all of the places the food delivery apps source from are restaurants.

fforest Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 (edited) I will tell you a trick when scanning the Indian restaurants on the food apps, if your looking for value.....If plain Naan bread cost more than 20 baht, forget it...The rest of the food will be expensive too... I never really used the food apps before because my old phone just did not have the horsepower for these memory hungry apps.....With my new Samsung s8 it's no problem.....There are some great food value deals to find if you dig into these apps...Juice,ice cream,coffee,bread,Thai food, Farang food, India food..etc absolutely any food..

Do you remember (of course you do,darling!) when they removed a large section of the "original" wooden floor. surrounded it with tape which blew away after a few hours, and continued serving... I absolutely LOVE this place to bits! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john luke Posted January 9, 2022 Author Share Posted January 9, 2022 Ongoing work at the Beer Garden. The benches and tables above have been re varnished. Only two out of the four bars adjacent to the Beer Garden were operating. Perhaps I should have called them restaurants. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horizondave Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Saw this video on Fakebook today, I am not really sure what to make of it. The guy obviously has money and has a heart of gold but handing out wads of cash to staff in bars etc seems a little odd especially as many will not receive the cash. Maybe I didn't understand the video but I would not be showing my face in videos and walking around with envelopes full of large amounts of cash. Interesting though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is kind of "goofy", but entertaining. Puts together a decent production. The dude I think has genuine motives. I don't take issue with anything he does. Up to him... and he has a good time with it. Sure gets around, and often provides some good info. He's a bit of a stoner, which doesn't bother me, actually kind of funny at times. He helps a lot of people, and so I find nothing wrong with that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
