I signed into my Google account, and as suspected, there is no timeline history because I turn off as much tracking as possible, but even if I could post a map like this, I wouldn't.

Did the big retox sport bar open again? What good sport bars are still open in this area.  Some air conditioning is not a must have but would be good.

Soi Lengkee? No, now a Thai Food Shop.

 

Soi Honey? Reopening next month as a branch of Hemingways.

16 million baht on Soi 6. 

 

How many drinks, lady drinks, and short time room hire would you have to sell, over how many years, just to recoup the purchase money?

Here's one where rent and key money will change after covid, but the owner is a "nice landlord."  ????

This agent has a few ads for Soi 6, Soi Pothole, and Soi Yamoto.

There was an ad on Facebook earlier today for a single story shophouse building on Walking St beach side, 39m baht, that did make me laugh

Leaver,  the good news is one of your favourites is reopening, a lot of money spent upgrading it. And you never thought it would sell !!!

I'm all for variety and choice here.  

 

What did it sell for?  

 

Remember DJ Bar on Soi 7, where the owner begged the market to take the bar for free.  That was a good sale.  ????

No amount of alcohol and / or sex for sale. on a property that size, at that price, would make it a viable proposition.

The one in my mind is soi honey.  I go to watch 1 or 2 games there when I am in Pattaya.

If their other outlets have been as poorly frequented as the Central one for the last 2 years not really a surprise.  Always wondered when I've been in there, invariably as the only customer, how much they must have been losing. Pity as it's my preferred option when in Central.  Looks like it's Arno's in T21 from now on for a burger fix.

You have until the end of the month to enjoy Carl Jnrs.

 

It's a surprise closing when all the news is of restaurants re-opening and new ones opening.

You've got to be in Pattaya to understand it., when was the last time you  were here ?

I was in Carls a couple of weeks ago. I enjoyed the Western Burger deal with fries and a coke but, as usual, the aircon was too much.

It's eat in. There is an outside area too, overlooking the bay, can be nice on a sunny day.

Sorry, it now looks like the 24th of March is the last day of Carls Jnr.

 

A&W another casualty that is disappearing from Thailand.

Covid rent discounts coming to an end, before there's enough tourism to cover business expenses, such as rent.  

 

There will be more closures over the next 6 months, but the Thai's have the solution. 

 

Their solution is, build another mall.  ????

Many people have boycotted the place as price increases have been ridiculous the last few months, newbies don't realise. I'm not sure why anyone would buy it when the owner is instrumental in good preparation

Haven't seen him in there as much recently... perhaps he has changed his schedule at about the day/time I often visit. Previously always sat at the top table watching over things and occasionally getting up to do some job. He turned up once with a load of supplies, and commented how it was nice and cool in there... yes it was, but he obviously tweaked  something as it didn't stay that way. 

I haven't really noticed the price increases, but did overhear complaints of his supplier prices going up. Any new owner obviously needs to keep on top of things... they always deteriorate if not. Recall the soi 7 Sea Side place, dogs wandering around inside.
