Oscar's has a mamasan?newkidontheblock wrote: ↑Mon May 13, 2019 11:18 pm Now got the full Oscar’s experience. Most importantly, got to see the great and magnanimous rozzieoz in action. Also managed to catch a bit of the live music upstairs as well.
Unfortunately, I’m well past my bar days. The late hours, the cigarette smoke, all got to me. Outweighed the unfolding human spectacle.
That and the local mamasan giving missus tips on picking up customers when she was in bathroom.
Something along the lines of telling her not to act like a proper Khmer lady.
Wish rozzieoz all the luck with Oscar’s.
Yes, it would be great to enjoy smoke-free bars in PP.
Re: Downstairs at Oscar
There is the upstairs and there is the downstairs. Two bars. Different.
Despite what angsta states, it’s clear from reading through his posts that angsta supports the free FreePalestine movement.

Re: Downstairs at Oscar
Some lady who isn’t much older than her sister and addresses missus as ‘daughter’ then proceeds to tell her on how NOT to act like a proper Khmer. Missus told me that this kind of person was a ‘mama’.armchairlawyer wrote:Oscar's has a mamasan?

Both upstairs and downstairs are good places and rozzieoz is doing a terrific job. However it’s a different world from ours. The late hours, the cigarette smoke, etc.
Actually, she and her family are quite shocked I brought her there. It is definitely not lady friendly.
Any music venues that start at 6 or 7 PM, non-smoking, and non-girly?
Re: Downstairs at Oscar
You posted before that you brought the whole in-law family to Soi 4 Nana Plaza. Surely Roz's downstairs is remarkably tame in comparison?newkidontheblock wrote: ↑Tue May 14, 2019 5:44 am Actually, she and her family are quite shocked I brought her there. It is definitely not lady friendly.
Did you bring the homosexual?

Unsure how it is now but I remember Sharkys had bands.. Eclipse sky bar has live music and Darlin Darlin in Naga has live music ... Probably Eclipse is best if ur looking for a venue w out the "girly" vibe. Having said that--- maybe it's only certain nights w/ live music at Eclipse..not positive
Manhattan keeps on making it, Brooklyn keeps on taking it

Re: Downstairs at Oscar
When Oscar's upstairs has live music (usually between 10pm and 1am), it is an OK place to take your lady imho. It helps if you lady is dressed conservatively and wears a prominent handbag. Then she should not get mistaken for a working girl. The live bands are usually very good btw.newkidontheblock wrote: ↑Tue May 14, 2019 5:44 amSome lady who isn’t much older than her sister and addresses missus as ‘daughter’ then proceeds to tell her on how NOT to act like a proper Khmer.

As for other live music places, earlier starts at places like Alchemy, Bouchon, and Farm to Table (9pm?) but not every night. The problem with those places is that most of the customers have no interest in the music and they talk loudly over it. Good Times Bar, Tacos Tacopelli, Bonas Pub and LF Social Club have music regularly with starts about 9pm. Lengpleng.com is back in action as a weekly gig guide.
But Oscar's is the best by a country mile.

Re: Downstairs at Oscar
Be yourself, of course. It’s one thing to follow the adventures of an internet ‘celebrity’ on CEO, and quite another to watch through the giant bar mirror, while nursing a ginger ale and a cranberry juice. (Neither of us drink beer).rozzieoz wrote:Oh god, what did I do?newkidontheblock wrote:Now got the full Oscar’s experience. Most importantly, got to see the great and magnanimous rozzieoz in action.
And trying not to fall asleep since it’s well past our bedtime.
And not choke on cigarette smoke. More her than me.
Missus does not wear expensive clothes or name brand handbags when she goes out.
She believes those attract jaow and increase the likelihood of being robbed.
Plenty of working girls carry luxury handbags.

Re: Downstairs at Oscar
You missed the point. The cost of the clothes is not relevant, it's the style that matters. Re the bag, girls working in the bar (not necessarily available for taking out btw) do not carry a handbag (they have to stash them behind the bar or wherever). If you see a lady in a bar wearing a bag (whatever its cost), she is not working there.newkidontheblock wrote: ↑Tue May 14, 2019 9:51 am
