Oh Noes! What Happened To Mad Dog?

[WinnieTheKhwai]

Mad Dog looks like a construction site.. What's going on? And why: it was perfect! Don't want it to turn into another fancy-schmancy-loungy place serving gay coffee drinks and boutique burgers served with hydroponic lettuce.. :/ Just beer and heart-attack food please, served by their occasionally-grumpy-but-with-a-heart-of-gold staff.

Not been in Mad Dog for a couple of weeks as l have been in Cambodia for Songkran. Nick did not mention anything about refurbishment when l saw him shortly before my departure. I am keen to find out what is happening and will telephone one of his staff to see whats happening

No!

But to clarify, I meant gay in the sense of appealing to faux-sophisticated fussy emo carebears; I'm not speaking negatively of raw homosexual sex.

EPIC response Dave!!!!

A healthy breakfast bargain can be had at Mad Dog's - muesli, yogurt, and fruit, with ample amounts of the latter. Almost shocking, if one can be shocked there by anything.

Your thinking of proper British dri8nglng way of tea.

"Mad Dogs Manly Man Mugs" wow- a beast of a cuppa or a "petite jolie cafe" (with extra cream)

I'm with you guys.

Mad Dog and Gay in the same thread - Thanks for making my day

We've had the Pink Lion, maybe the "Mad Poodle"?

Just had a word with Nick and apparently it should be opened by evening Saturday the 28th.

[Rancid]

I somewhat doubt Mad Dogs could ever be accused of being a gay establishment, unless it is true it is moving to Nimmenheimen of course. Fortunately for the social elite it is reopening, and will no doubt continue to be a pillar of hetero 10.00 am binge drinking and late night vomiting in the iconic, sordid atmosphere of sport TV and incoherent musings that brought it such acclaim and love. We really don't need to lose any more cultural landmarks.

[SEETEFL]

It certainly is a cultural landmark. It also serves probably the best breakfast in Chiang Mai.

[true blue]

go along with the best breakfast,its awesome,and some more.

[eek]

Who needs GPS or google when you've got dave2

[naboo]

I do worry that Dave2 may feel a bit like last year's Christmas toy now that Google Streetview is out. However, posts like the one above show his everlasting value.

Before the need to 'modify' my diet quite strictly, I certainly agree that Mad Dog's breakfast (IMO), was the best in Chiang Mai and as you say, you only need to eat once.

I must admit that I do miss them.

... snip ... I'm not speaking negatively of raw homosexual sex.

Sawasdee Khrup, Khun Winnie the Khwai,

What have been your positive experiences with raw homosexual sex ? I and my Orang soul-mind-mate have never tried any flavor of homosexual sex (we seem to be both neurologically hard-wired to worship the female of our species), but, since both of us are voyeurs, we'd like to know.

Perhaps you could start by cluing us in on what the connotations of the word "raw" used here is ?

thanks, ~o:37;

[WinnieTheKhwai]

Eh.. there's no door. It's completely open to the road.

Are you confusing it with the Red Lion or O'Malleys perhaps?

Just realised, you beat me too it. Yes,it was O'Malleys - all these Asians look the same to me.

I thought that was French coffee.

[tigerbeer]

just wanted to leave a quick update that the reopening of mad dogs would be tomorrow instead of today. full staff in there cleaning the place up today.

[FTB]

More importantly.......does the Maddog facelift include the ever needed attitude adjustment of the cantankerous and somewhat petulant, day time manager of the establishment ?
