Soi 53, 2 hours all you can drink for 300 baht? How many years ago is that? If it is still current even rgs must be impressed.These days I prefer quality over quantity. Cant be assed heading over to the other side of town to drink with the man bun hipsters. |

Ah the days of 60 baht beers outside the local shophouse with a table almost collapsing from Issan food- certainly miss that Rangsit pace of life I like those barge restos on the klong. Another thing I like is those boozer cruises up Ayuttaya way, sat at the front of the ship getting shitfaced, its a great way to spend 3 or 4 hours. As mentioned above,its a different way of life up that way, was sat on the barge, the woman asked me what I wanted to drink, I said I cant I am driving, where do you stay she asked, I told her, no problem she said, I will drive you home and my friend will follow on her motocy to take me back, I almost had to force the 100 baht into her hand when she dropped me off. |

This place is strictly for the footy, beer and basic issan favourites to me....enjoy while you can. |

The p**sed manbun brigade and their tall stories impressing the newbies whilst the old man sits in the corner smiling to himself. |

Am not one who likes a siesta between beers. |

Have they done away with the towers with the ice jacket? I haven't been there for a couple of years. |

Cant be assed heading over to the other side of town to drink with the man bun hipsters. Do not spend enough time in BKK lately to try new places (when I do I wish I hadn't) tend to stick to the old haunts that still exist. Speaking of cheap the Madrid has a happy hour 4-7 pm, 80 baht all local beers. Sadly for this lovely old bar the lovely old customers seem long gone and due to lack of demand barfines are no longer available. |

Ahh the Madrid....nice pizzas there but the real joy were always the staff....like being welcomed by family and genuinely so too. |

I am told by those who know that to get a decent pizza now you have to specify extra cheese. I think there are only perhaps three staff who have been there more than a few years, as I tend to prop the bar up at the door end I do not know those at the khazi & kitchen end. Staff are friendly enough but do not seem to have enough experience of customers to understand how to act. |

The p**sed manbun brigade and their tall stories impressing the newbies whilst the old man sits in the corner smiling to himself. Not been to KSR for some years, last time I was in a rooftop place in Sanam Luang that had live music and seemed to be quite well known. On leaving I was on the main road heading away from KSR and a motorsy pulled up, a young lady jumped off and said "I go with you for 300 baht". My reaction was Eh, What? And she came straight back with "OK 200 then". Even then these were unheard of cheap prices to me. But moral fibre won the day and I declined. |

Funnily enough one of my recent patients had a nasty dose of syphilis following a long and protracted business trip meeting professional escorts each evening. No need to ask which country  |
