Suan Lum Beer Garden

Suan Lum Night Bazaar near Lumphini Park has a really good beer gerden with a great selection of draught beers. There's a big canvas roof that slides open when it starts to rain, which is a damn fine idea, too. I've been there a few times, but last week I actually remembered to take a camera (although I forgot to take lots of photos).

The place is about the size of a football pitch and has a large stage at one end with a TV showing either footy or Animal Planet hanging above the singers and dancers. Ther's also a telly at the other end of the beer garden. There are a variety of singers who do everything from Thai ballads to Hip-hop 'songs' going on about 'popping that muthafucker's ass', which is nice.

Usually, I don't get hassled when I go there, but this time we were surrounded by a load of waiters tryng to force their beer and food onto us. I wanted to drink Bass as German beers are crap, so I wandered off to find the Bass lady. And here she is...

The Beer Garden is surrounded by food stands selling a good selection of Thai food (there's some good sausages too). You need to purchase some coupons (near the toilets) and away you go.

Or you can be lazy and order from the food girl, but this seems to cost twice as much. As we were drinking, finger foods seemed a good idea; and it was!

The food is pretty good here and they also sell wine or cocktails if you're a bird or bat for the other team. From memory they sell Warstiener, Paulaner, Bass, Tiger, Heineken, Chang, Singha and another couple of German beers.

Well worth a trip if you're in Bangkok (and the Night Bazaar is not too bad to wander around either).

The night I was down there she was posing for 'shots' between sets.

Taking photos of top class pussy is a national past-time in LOS. No one thinks twice about it.

Fuck it, I get the girls doing the service in the Bank to pose for piccies here!
Everyone's a super model!!!!

I remember the beer girls being pushy as well and then pissed off when I didn't order from them.

Good thread Marmers, but what happened to the huntsman thread?

Looks like AO should get off his butt and try a few different brews, and eat a little "finger food".

For a full frigging year mate. Perhaps if I mention your name to the misses I can get out of the house easier.

When we all go up to CX I am gonna sit next to you. Jabbering in American English for the whole flight.

His kids would probably kick our arses mate, so we'd better make sure they're not near the house. I think Roong would give us a hand though...

Hadnt heard bout that Dog, but shit with Toxin it makes sense. Fruit me,everything I move here for save pussy is going, and the pussy is getting more expensive and not as nice to look at. Judging by a few threads in the forums.

How dare you say that? I agree about wheat beer but there is nothing better than a nice cool pilsen style beer. Or a bock if you want to get hammered quickly. And I thought you were a beer connoisseur.

Quite easily. Compared with English beers, they're not smooth enough and they lack taste & body. :la:

I kinda like the German beer served at tawadeng in Rama 3. Quite often get shitfaced there early Thursday evening. Pissed as a parrot and head off home by 9 Pm. One advantage of being an old crunt is that ya can get quite drunk on 3 or 4 pints.

the before and after pics would indicate that the food was great and the beer was shite by the amount consumed!

I tend to concentrate on the food when it's there, before going back to the beer.

The Bass beer is OK.
