JaiLai Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 The Shenanigans in Jomtien attracts quite a lot of russians who go there to eat. They don't (as far as I know) have a russian sign anywhere but the Russians still come. They have menus in Russian though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seadoo Posted March 10, 2013 Author Share Posted March 10, 2013 (edited) Completely new owners - I was the person who sold it, ie brought the seller and buyer together. Edited March 10, 2013 by seadoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seadoo Posted March 10, 2013 Author Share Posted March 10, 2013 It will reopen as The Acorn on the first week of April. There's a lot more but I'll wait until the owners are ready to let the world know. The owner has many other successful businesses including restaurants and pubs and many other businesses.

seadoo Posted March 10, 2013 Author Share Posted March 10, 2013 Once you understand the brand behind it you'll understand the reason for the name. For those in the bar and restaurant game you may know who the owner is from the name Acorn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 So is the Acorn going to be a bar, restaurant, or both? If restaurant, what kind of food will they serve? If a bar, I know they will serve booze, so not too interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

watcharacters Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Just talked to an old friend that is one of the partners. The Shenanigans in the Avenue has been closed but the one in Jomtien is up and flourishing. The only two expat managers they have had in the Avenue location were named Simon and Tony. Kim was the manager at the old location. Nobody named Pat was ever associated with it that he knew of. Interesting to know, either i got the name wrong as he spoke "Irish" , or he was lyingIf he spoke Irish, he would have said Padraig and not Pat. He possibly made it easy for the non-Irish by saying Pat just as the Thais do with their names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaoboi Bebobp Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 After looking up JAFIB, the commonest answer was Just Another Freakin' Industrial Band. Which made it even more cryptic. OK, I will sleep better tonight too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
