Another great thing about Tiger Disco is its a favorit place for girls who doesn't work in bars. Me and my frinds ran into some of the Coyote restaurant staff one night, they are all young/hot and there to have fun. If you treat them right they are up for anything! I also met a super hot girl there who worked in a hotel reception in Patong. Great girl, I am still in contact with her....oh man, got to get back soon.

I guess the sad thing is a girl who works 6 days a week/9-10 hours a day still can't make a living in Patong....not even close..=(

So if you go with one of these lovely ladies make sure you pay her right! Even if she says "nono", just slip 1k in her purse when she showers.

In the night we all know there are anywhere in the streets, not only in discos and bangla street and always this questins tired us.

I was in phuket first time 6 or 7 years ago and i remember that in daytime too was not difficult to find them in street or shopping centre too, some dont speak english or very little and seemed not very experienced and was nice.

I was second time last year and was different, seems that in daytime there are less chances to find them.

...or i became old and slow to understand what i see

geeesh

I think the lad was asking about CURRENT locations for the BEST place to find them...we have all read that they are everywhere, however im sure you have forgotton that we (the unfortunate ones) who havnt been to patong yet, may be a little overwhelmed with everything and may not be able to distingiush right away fl's from the rest. In addition us farangs comming soon want some sort of basic gameplan to start. Therefore can anyone name the HOTSPOTS....lets say the top 5 freelancer hang outs?...sounds like Tiger is in the top 5...anyplace else......Im still afraid I may bring a lb home by accident.

Ok then here’s my suggestion: A few years ago, Tai Pan used to be my favorite spot for FLs. It’s been up and down since then, but as of late I’ve found that certain nights they’re in abundance. Nice talent too. So… in the low season I usually take a peek around midnight and if it looks quiet I head to Tiger. In the high season both places are usually just too busy for my taste, but Tai Pan would still get my vote.

All in all, I generally like the atmosphere better in Tai Pan. Never liked Baia Beach nor Banana (although it can be a nice “warm-up” to Tiger / Tai Pan around 10ish).

… and if everything else fails, I am still surprised at the FL quality in Safari from 4AM and onwards…

The best place i found was on soi sansabai. I was watching the world go by at 2.30 am or something and saw this girl. She hadn't be taken from her bar that night, so I just simply called her over, spoke to her and that was it.

I hadn't bothered picking up a girl all night and was preparing to go to bed alone.... Didn't quite go according to plan.

You're absolutely right. An FL hunt (intentional or not) should include Sansabai squeezed in between Tai Pan / Tiger and Safari.

Last night I was at Banana disco and there a lot of freelancers who like to go with you. Taipan also and in Bangla just on the street.
