German Expat MATTHIAS MEBES in Altercation After Receiving Bill at Mr Butterfly Bar in Phnom Penh, Cambodia
Re: German Expat MATTHIAS MEBES in Altercation After Receiving Bill at Mr Butterfly Bar in Phnom Penh, Cambodia
If you're stupid enough to let bar run a tan for you, you deserve what you will inevitably get... an inflated tab.
The cashiers have no idea who is ordering it and there are no checks and balances, nor any incentive to have them. Foreigners are too interested in being 'nice guys', thinking the bar girls will love and respect them for paying more than they should.
Pay drink by drink and these problems never happen.

Well, it's normal in most hostess bars to run a tab unless you ask to pay by drink. I've only experienced in Candy bar where they don't seem to put the tab in front of you (unless you ask) and they give it to you at the end when you ask to check bill..hence risky, so I would ask any place that does that to give you tab by tab and check it each time you order another round or else do as you say..pay drink by drink.. but to me that's a lot of mucking around with change etc if you stay for a long session.Tarndog wrote: ↑Mon Mar 11, 2019 9:16 pm If you're stupid enough to let bar run a tan for you, you deserve what you will inevitably get... an inflated tab.

And at the end, check the addition of the tabs.
