There's a real sea change in the opinion about where is the best place to go amongst residents.
Ignoring the fact that many residents drink in Soi 33 as a rule the best places are now considered to be
1. Cowboy
2. patpong
3. daylight
4. Nana
the other night we were chatting and of the guys there only one had been to nana in the last 3 months. The guy who had been a few nights earlier said he thought it was shite.
Lately we've made a few excursions down to Patpong. Gone are the tourist rip offs, every bar we went it had a chit signature system, i.e. you signed the ticket before it went in the bin and you are asked to review your bill before it is cashed.
Added to the fact that drinks are 40B cheaper than Nana the evening seemed much cheaper. The bars were all nice and the girl looking good.
As for Cowboy, I was there 3 nights ago and saw the best selection of girls I have seen there in a while. sadly i cannot tell you what bars they were in as I sit outside and watch the world and ddin't set foot in a single bar. The place was also very busy when I went home at 10:30 and a pretty good atmosphere in the air.
The caveat to this is that of course as residents we see things very differently to tourists, but Nana has just pushed it's luck for too long, now they are complaining of poor sales. Will they learn their lesson, doubtful, I'd say another price increase is on the cards.
