Thaivisa News Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Pattaya sushi shop manager charged over ‘nude menu’ PATTAYA: -- Pictures and a video clip of a special sushi menu have gone viral on social networks to the dismay of the Tokyo Kid sushi shop in Pattaya. The unwanted popularity prompted the shop on Soi Korfai in Tambon Nongplue of Chon Buri’s Bang Lamung district to shut itself down temporarily. The pictures and clip showed Thai women with no clothes on lying on their back on dining tables. There were sushi varieties on their body and on plates around each of them waiting to be savored the shop’s patrons. In one photo, two western men with their faces blurred by mosaic effect were seen enjoying the sushi. Although the shop has been closed down temporarily following an outcry by social networkers, police managed to locate it and summoned the shop manger, Apichart Wongsurirya, 38, to face charges of holding indecent activities and having women go nude in the public. According to Thai Rath, Apichart told police that the special menu was provided to patrons occasionally when foreign patrons, especially Japanese and South Korean tourists, requested it. Apichart said each patron was charged Bt5,000 for the body sushi menu, excluding drink charges. He said a Thai woman who agreed to lie down naked as the special dish for sushi, earned between Bt2,000 to Bt5,000 each time. Apichart claimed that the women just served as the dishes without entering the flesh trade. But police apparently did not believe him. Pattaya police station chief Pol Col Sukthat Pumphanmuang said police would summon the women in the widely shared photos to question whether they doubled as prostitutes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post konying Posted February 5, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted February 5, 2015 Manager is not actually lying. It is some form of ancient Japanese food art, takes weeks and weeks of training the girls and they do not provide anything else but being a dish to eat off. 5000 is actually the cheapest "dish" average price was closer to 10 000. Personally i find this whole thing hypocritical to the max. All the netzens do not seem to have a problem with hookers walking the streets, karaoke bar boys and girls, prostitution on every corner of every village, mia nois etc etc etc but have a problem with private restaurant 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So now I guess the magnificent Thai police will now have to go and arrest all the wealthy Thai guys who own the gogo bars on walking street, as they certainly are having women go nude there... :-) I swear, the levels of hypocrisy here reach uncharted levels..

kingstonkid Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 This is not a new type of restaurant. There is one in Las Vegas. The difference is that the girls wear bikini panties and are not nude. you can check it out on youtube. The idea has merit but i would think that it is a little more classy in the US than it would be in Pattaya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaywalker Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 You can imagine the shock and horror of encountering nudity on a visit to Pattaya. Shiver me' timbers Mate! If they want to "Protect" us from unsightly views, how about shutting down the Jet-Ski thugs? Rather unsightly to see people getting scammed for years on end isn't it? Let consenting adults do what we want. I may or may not ever find the place, but if I do, who am I hurting? The more they try to "Save Face", the more they Lose Face. Idiots is my opinion.

Ah but the police are raking in millions of baht from the jet ski scam, and thus it will go on forever. Unless Prayut decides to stop it. Sometimes in Thailand, money is more important than face. And given this " raid " , I suspect the police were not being given their proper cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You farang no understand. Farang must pay 10x at least what Thai pay. Obviously no one told Jason the rules. Seriously though, draw attention to yourself in anyway here is bad news. Going viral on social media is not recommended, especially for such an activity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

animatic Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 (edited) Naked Sushi had a short vogue on Samui, noone said a word. This is just the Pattaya BiB thinking they aren't getting their cut of a sex operation. So stitch up the owner till they get a back percentage and fine for not cutting them in earlier. BiB not clear on the concept. Edited February 6, 2015 by animatic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emster23 Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 "Thai woman who agreed to lie down naked as the special dish for sushi, earned between Bt2,000 to Bt5,000 each time." And I thought folks were being over charged at those CM karaoke bars..... I know I feel a whole lot safer seeing all that police time and man power being invested in this cracking down on this sort of crime. I am continually being mugged and cheated by naked Thai women that smell of sushi all over Pattaya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
