JimTripper Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 (edited) Is Chiangmai Mai writers club still open? Went in there once and everyone was pretty old. Looked like a good place to hit on other foreigners wives. Edited November 10, 2022 by JimTripper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaosLover Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 Yeah, the writer's bar is still going strong. I went daily for the two week I stayed there recently. Very solid food option with all the Northern favorites toned down a bit for the Western palate. And a beautiful old bar that has retained its original fixtures (changed hands about 5 years ago). Def filled with oldies, a lot of whom are in house shares down side soi's that they're never going to move out of (I really wanted to rent in The Old City). Didn't see any stray white wives; would have loved that. I met an old woman there who lives on $900 a month, including a daily couple of glasses of the house red at the bar.

Sparktrader Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 Why would 30yo Thai women want to be just friends with a farang 60yo? Talk about what? Thai food all day long? They have about 5% in common. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done a quick walk down Loi Kroh since I've returned, I didn't notice Paradise Bar but didn't see any bars that looked promising. I explained early in this topic, I'm not looking for a hooker bar. Is "Bar 1" aka "Belgian Beer CNX" still closed? Not cheap, but not a hooker bar, and was a firm favourite for many a non-touristy NYE party, and a gutsy speakeasy during the Covid paranoia years. It's tucked away in the Soi on the right once you pass most of the girly joints, but before the small bridge that goes over the khlong on Loi Kroh.

Apples and Oranges much? There's plenty to do in CM at night, and before the global paranoia, craic could be found all night, especially if your imagination stretched beyond that of a superannuated sex-seeker. Age is a question of attitude. Needing to consort with women your granddaughters age is not every retirees idea of great nightlife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimTripper Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 (edited) If you’re thinking of going into real “local” areas I would advise some caution in some areas. Including the general area between the old city and Central Festival has many streets with low end karaoke/bar shack while not overtly dangerous you would need to act proper if you went at night. The other area that I would consider semi-dangerous in terms of getting ripped off are the karaoke bars on Chang klan as you head away from the night market, and the smaller ones as you head much further down Chang klan could be more physically dangerous if you went at night and had problems. It all depends on how you act. Some of the ones on Chang klan are run by Chinese so it’s a different scene altogether.

LaosLover Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 I live in Nimman. It's all male Russian draft dodgers potheads, pretending to be Serbians; no pay day here. If you want backpacker bars, go to Pai, where the backpackers are at least physically existent. I did see an oldie or two squiring around a younger, hairy arm pitted Israeli lass there. Why not you? Search for my comments about it in a Pai thread I contributed to. Again, why not you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My local friends like hanging out at those bars, if you like hanging out with Thais I checked out T-Bar last night, then walked around Santitham without seeing much that interested me, then had a final beer in Yawk Bar. The pretties in T-Bar ranged from cute to well below average. Unfortunately a hefty, heavily tattooed "pretty" latched onto me. I finished my beer and left. If anyone is in the mood for an extra large, aggressive pretty with an extra large rack, you should check out T-Bar. Otherwise, maybe not. Yawk bar was nice; not the rambunctious pretty bar I was looking for, but a friendly corner bar good for a beer or three. I've driven past Hom bar, I'll try to visit sometime soon.

If you’re looking for looks, then maybe go somewhere that has that kinda thing going on for your type. If you have ulterior motives then you’ll get nowhere with most in these parts, you’ll only scare them.
