true blue Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 went to blar blar bar last night,and there must of been at least 100 young farangs there,never seen so many in one bar in a general thai hang out,went to another bar as blar blar was so busy,and that place is quite big,never had chance to ask what the occasion was,would have been nice to no.hazard a guess it had something to do with the internet?????

HaleySabai Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Many farangs indeed..... I live in MaeHia area,everytime I go to Maehia market Iam amazed at the number of Farang and on a sunday I get the feeling Im somewhere in middle America!.....all shapes and sizes,full scale farang families,mixed couples young and old,mixed fams,dreamers ,schemers and in-betweeners.....and these are not tourists out in this area but people who have come to live in CM for reasons all their own. I can't imagine what they are doing but points to a drastic change in demographics. It must be on to a good 2-3 years since the influx has taken place,I have been out here well before the development of this area and find it interesting,if not amusing.....let the good times roll!

Beetlejuice Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 A 100 young farangs in a bar, that was the beginning and concluded the tourist high season in Chiang Mai for this year. Perhaps next year the figures may reach 120 young farangs in a bar. The future is looking bright.for Chiang Mai`s tourist industry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bangmai Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 They probably came earlier in the month and spent too much money in the backpacker ghettoes, where the deals aren't always good. BrahBrah is promo-land for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bangmai Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Interesting....I've seen more fights at John's Place and Spicy than all the rest of Thailand combined. Been in Dayli 200 times over 8 years and never seen a fight or even a shouting match. Dr. Don has since spent time in a mental institution.....I don't really think he got many accolades from the Thai community. Seems like a certain Canadian was working illegally and didn't have medical insurance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the shooting was soi 13 close to Nimmanhamin, while Blar Blar is soi 7 near Sirimangkhlachan (however it's spelled). The two are at least a half a kilometer apart, I doubt if the Blar Blar customers knew about the shooting until they heard about it the next day.

heybruce Posted January 24, 2015 Share Posted January 24, 2015 Left Blar Blar a little while ago. There were a some westerners, but not a hundred. Beer promotion was three Chang Export for 199 baht, the live music was good, the waitresses were really cute (no you can't bar fine them, it's not that kind of place) and the Thai food was good and reasonably priced. Most of the staff speaks little or no English. I'm surprised there aren't more westerners there, but really don't mind that it remains mostly Thai.

heybruce Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 (edited) same with Dayli.....except 4 for 210 thb (Leos)...however, reports from Santitham indicate 3 for 119 THB. I like Dayli, it definitely has better beer promotions and a better selection of beers, but the last time I checked Blar Blar was the hands down winner on cuteness and number of waitresses. Blar Blar also serves much larger portions of food for the same price, and I think the music is better. But if you're looking for a place to take a lady friend out for drinks and don't want to get into trouble for eying cute waitresses Dayli is a good choice. I consider those two the best bets in the Nimmanhamin area for a relaxed dinner and drinks, but I'd be happy to read about others if anyone wants to volunteer suggestions. A new place on Nimmanhamin between sois 9 and 11 called <deleted> has opened up; I think it's just drinks and street food but haven't been there yet--it's usually either dead or packed. Has anyone checked it out? Since you mentioned Santitham, and recommendations for casual, affordable, enjoyable eating and drinking places there?

JulieM Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 (edited) I've been to that place on Nimmen What The F___ once. I think there two beer promos. Three Leos for maybe 209 baht or three Chang Exports for 199. The place was nearly full but we got a table near the back. The service was fine but overall an unremarkable experience. I didn't see any food being offered by that establishment, but many street vendors are there. One stand is permanently parked at the back of the place, so that stall may somehow be associated with the place.

That comment - if not meant facetiously - betrays a profound ignorance of what the situation really is. Excuse me for being blunt, your statement is nonsense. "Show me a farang with a white skin Thai girl." Allow me to propose myself. My dear wife of 32 years is fair skinned and a real Thai - neung roy neung persen. I have passed my adult life in Chiang Mai and in that time I have known many farangs with light skin Thai wives. It is not uncommon at all. Perhaps your post was deliberately provocative and I've swallowed the bait. If so, and if you don't believe this hogwash, then it is a credit to your good sense. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
