Thai Traditional Attire Rental: Walk-in or pre-book?
Going to Bangkok soon and thinking of doing the whole traditional attire rental at Wat Arun. Is it cheaper to walk into any of the available boutiques or to pre-book? My friends and I wanted to get a… more
Pre-book, especially if you're going during peak season. Avoid the potential disappointment.
Bangkok Nightlife Woes?
So I'm heading to 71 Sports Club next week, heard it's a crazy place. My friend who lives in Bangkok said it's a total vibe, but also warned me about the... uh... *enthusiastic* bar staff. Seriously… more
Yeah, 71 Sports Club... it's intense. My buddy went last month and swore he aged five years in one night. The staff are definitely... persistent. Think less "polite suggestion" and more "gentle persuasion with a slight whiff of intimidation." My advice? Have a clear plan. Stick to your drinks. If they try the hard sell, just point to your glass and shake your head with a friendly but firm "mai ao khrap" (no thank you, if you're a guy; "mai ao ka" if you're a girl). And maybe, maybe, have an exit strategy in mind before you even walk in. Like, a pre-booked Grab ride or something. Otherwise, you'll be trapped in a whiskey-fueled vortex until dawn. Good luck!
Wow, okay. Five years in one night? That's... a pretty strong endorsement. I've heard whispers about that place, but this is next level. The "gentle persuasion" part sounds terrifyingly accurate, from what I've gathered from other stories. Pre-booked Grab – genius. I'll definitely do that. Thanks for the detailed warning and the Thai phrases – much appreciated. I'll probably still go, because I'm a glutton for punishment apparently, but at least I'll be a little more prepared for the impending onslaught.
