May 29, 20241 yr I am currently in rural Thailand visiting an old pal of mine called Jimmy. He took me out to this local pub run by a brit and his Thai wife last night because they had lager on draft and he knows that's what I like. The food was OK and the service was decent. Then came the pint of lager.. As soon as I put the glass to my lips I could smell it. Like rotten eggs it was, the smell was too much to bear so I walked up to the bar and told the owner. I asked him does he clean his pipes regularly or not?? the cheeky git kicked me and my friend out claiming we were giving his beer and bar a bad name. I said go on, taste it yourself then. he refused and ordered we both leave this second. Jimmy protested but to no avail. We paid up and left without leaving a tip. We were in there all of 25 minutes. Jimmy had been frequenting this dive for years but had never ordered their draft beer before. I love a good draft so naturally it was the first thing I ordered. seems the brit and his wife can't take any form of constructive criticism. I hesitate to say that this kind of behavior is normal in nakhon nowhere but I will hazard a guess that it is.. bob.

Here we go again, the latest fanciful fable from the land of bits and bobs, who gets thrown out of bars, restaurants, gyms, doctor's offices, law offices and who knows where else. But of course it's always them that are the problem and not you, right? Well, FFS, if some nasty git asked me if I clean my pipes regularly I would probably introduce him to a lot more than just the exit door.

It was cold but absolutely stunk of rotten eggs. I almost threw up. it was revolting. the fact the owner refused to smell it himself speaks volumes imo. bob.
May 29, 20241 yr Popular Post Congrats, so instead of antagonizing everybody on this forum, you have now also made your "mate" lose one of his favourite watering holes, and also managed to make enemies of some bar/restaurant owners in a far corner of LOS. Good to hear you are not only selectively targeting us, and aiming to alienate as many people as you possibly can! Keep going, and do let us know when you need money to pay your hospital bills.

May 29, 20241 yr That was a message to you not to go back to that place. Don't be surprised if you will receive that message in several places when they get to know you.

May 29, 20241 yr Popular Post You're an idiot for even ordering anything, be it food or drink, from a place run by a Brit. These are the people who think baked beans and warm beer are a culinary cultural heritage.

May 29, 20241 yr Popular Post TBH, the bloke who owns the joint deserves a trophy. Anyone who intentionally serves bob a bad beer to get rid of him ASAP is a hero in my book. A shame the geezer didn't serve bob an undercooked burger and some cold, rubbery chips to go with it. Oh, wait...
May 29, 20241 yr Could have ben the last of the barrel; When I worked behind a bar in UK the dregs of the barrel often smelled like this. Rotten Eggs smell (hydrogen sulphide, ) is the decomposition of the yeast in the beer. it often happens, I cannot see why the bar owner needs to make a fuss about it. Could it have been the way the comments were made? If I had been the barman, I would have poured the customer another beer. On the other hand, it was not unknown for bar staff to give troublesome customers duff pint to get rid of them. if the cap fits???
