I happened to be gently knocking the place one day and I was sat at a table with the guy that part financed it !! Opps.. After I removed my foot from my mouth he agreed that it had been a horrbile loos so far and they were trying to offload it at deep discount.

La Bala thats opened looks pretty slick.. Also as said 'Joes' Robs new place..

from the impression i got fromt he guy, he seemed a bit nervous. but liek i said, great guy.
one thing about some of these guys who open bars, they do no marketing! a high end place like that should be up at baan yin dee, laguna drinking, getting to know the owners there, concierges. inviting them down for drinks, developing relationships.
