There are lots to do even alone in Pattaya. I normally schedule with friends half the trip and alone the other half during Songkran and Loy Krathong.

When alone , its good time to explore coz there are no expectations from your frends. Since you're no longer a newbie to the place , you can take your time to find some gems away from Soi Walking but it'll always be there as a back up in case you want instant kopi.

LK Metro now has 4 or 5 agogos and the surronding areas boast the beerbars ; like Soi Diana and Soi Lengkee. Walk further up towards the disco Xycte and you have even more bars t explore ; although the concentration is less. Check out Bliss BJ Bar and Buffalo bar so Sai 3.

Try Drinking Street also near Big C, a plesent surprise for me last time. As for food , go for the Oishi group jap buffet ; I think called Shabuhsi. Individual steamboat ; less than 200B. The place at Central 6th floor is always packed but there is another on at the Big C.

Not sure about seafood as I normally eat cheap in Pattaya. The Jontiem ones along the beach are famous but some are not cheap. Can pick up a girl and ask her to bring. Last time I did that , she brought me to Lobster Pot ; expensive and food was very ordinary , not worth it

I normally spend at least 6 hours at VIP suana ; boss there was from HK and does not allow hanky panky on his premises. Very good massages and the steam/hot stones/tub usage is 150B per entry with free with water melon and water to drink. Massage is seperate , off course. A good place also to meet people as normal and bar girls as well as tourist and expat use the place. Its in the middle of Soi 10
tks very much for these places to go Bro tecklim, i'll be sure to check out Drinking Street & Sai 3...VIP sauna would be nice to check out too esp. after a oily massage

Been to LK Metro that stretch, the gogo girls quality doesnt seems to be much but some of their door ushers sure are stunners thou hehe and Bob's grill always never disappoint with their roasted pock ribs

So until now I still dunno is it an offence to be in possession of an imitation watch? Any bros can help?

Re: Pattaya

Hi bro ninja, even thought i never experience that but my ang-moh boss did bought his replica watch in MBK @ bkk when we travel back to sg. i was shock to know that officer in changi know how to open up the case becos it may risk damaging the movement and inner workings of the watch once the case is removed. Cheers!

Dunno if it's an offence but I believe replica watch is not illegal.

If a police officer open up my real rolex I'm pretty sure his name will be taken down and be send to someplace with a feedback from me.it's ok to check but opening up the back is a big nono.I mean come on,it's a rolex after all!I may even cc a copy to rolex site and send in to service & check for any damage.

I believe people who wear rolex are someone with at least a little of statues and some may just shoot at the officer for opening up.

Was on the taxi back home one night after Work till really late in sg.about 1pm.pretty near to my house there was a road block.usually they seldom stop tAxi with customer sitting behind to spot check.was wave to stop & call out & handed out my ic.the usual question where u come back from and where u heading to etc.

But was ask to surrender my handphone & check my bag.as I did understand handphone was a personal item & we citizen have the right to not to surrender it unless a valid reason was given I ask the officer in a firm but polite tone.'I will cooperate with u with the check but I would like to know the reason for checking it as it's a personal item before surrounding it over.'the policeman got a little bit stunned & his superior heard it,came over and reply.sir pls hand it over 1st and I will let u know the reason later.I pass it over as he reply me back in a polite manner.and they ask to remove my battery and hold on to it while the check the serial num,sim number and ask me wether I had a second handphone with me.(this time quite kwai lan in tone.)I said no.why do I want to carry 2 mobile with me?they kept silence for a moment and carry comm.

Note taken,mobile were hand back.the explanation was many handphone stolen case was logged recently and they are checking for suspicious stolen phone.I was like what the hell?at a road block?

Be polite to the government ppl but be firm at the same time.lots of government officer all got 1type of pattern no matter in which country but in sg we locals if know the basic rules should not be yell around.we are only cooperating after all

Can only kiss and tell of 2 double sets in bkk. One some years back with a FB fl (doing farang rounds at Hyatt Spassos and occassional Brix in SG). Did the xmas beer garden outside Central mall with her cronies (cheap pints and eats). Her flatmate A didn't feel like going home alone. So I had the bonus back in my digs. As I did P (fb) afternoon, I had only reserve to do A then with P giving some 'assist'. Asked me to remember switch rubber.

Other was last was Jan this year, did the panjang one A from R2. She had a innocent noob friend (1st day at work), who joined us for beers and eats. Day job at some optician shop, just fell out with thai bf.. 5.5 looks tag along but with C titties. She drowned her sorrows in pints, and was ripe for the picking back enroute in cab and hotel. Had trouble switching between A and C (drunk as skunk). Sure, A got a mite jealous if I gave unequal attention to C.

Old cxxk here, nothing else to brag here

I have checked with some friends working at the entry points, it IS an offence to be in possession of imitation/counterfeit stuff but they do not specifically go to look out for these items. What they do look out for are suspected stolen items and in bro ninja's case I believe the officer was checking the serial number of the rolex watch (for some watches need to remove casing to see the number) against the stolen property database.

For any counterfeit items that they come across in the course of their work, they will record your particulars and submit the information to the company whose product is involved. Any further action to be taken is done by the company's lawyer, sometimes with the assistance of the police.

I would say this is probably in everyones best interest even if inconvenient as it ensures that people are kept honest. You won't find that degree of policing and crime busting in my country coz our police are lazy.

Re: Pattaya

Bros...

Quick check with bros here who have used the Bell Service. I am going to take the bell bus service for the first time as I intend to spend my entire 3Ns there. Coming back is the one that I thought I better ask.

My flight back to Sg is around 4.45pm. So, I booked the 11am bus time, with a pick up from hotel at 10.30am. So, for those experienced bros, this should be the correct timing I should take right? Was thinking if I go for the 9am one, seems to be a little too early for the flight. But juz don't wanna miss the flight back.

By the way, how's the service for Bells? Reliable? On time?

Pai say... first time take public transport to Patts... 5555

Soi 6... memories come flooding back Mostly darker type, farmer or dinos but bang for your baht! Fun and cheap too! Had a few gems (and misses) there but have to hunt a bit. Not recommended for most Asian bros.
