Oddly enough, when I popped in a couple of days ago, the staff did appear a bit more chipper than usual. But I’m sure they miss you. Certainly missed your postcard.
I'll buy a couple of rounds of lady drinks and they will be more than happy.

You are publicly De-capitalising China? I would keep clear of their airspace for a while or they might 'invite' you to make an unscheduled landing for a chat without coffee.Freightdog wrote: ↑Fri Jul 01, 2022 6:30 pmProbably made in china*.AndyKK wrote: ↑Fri Jul 01, 2022 6:16 pmI have seen Cambodian postcards for sale before.Doc67 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 01, 2022 6:06 pmThe girls at Harry's would look at a postcard in curious amusement.

Re: Rising Sun
Didn't know they were in that situation but understandable. Shame. A good few times there and great British food, nice owner lady and her daughters. And grand daughter I think who took on the role of assistant cook. Her grand daughter really puzzled me when at the bar once or twice as she was looking at her mobile. She held the screen very close to her eyes. Maybe change over from each to read text. No idea what was the condition was as she wore glasses. Great cook.
I loved a good few tall bottles of Angkor outside there of many a day till evening. I do have a few photos of the pics inside and some classics. Not rare. If they are closing for good. Maybe she could sell a few pictures as momentos for auction to get something for them. If she doesn't want them.

Re: Rising Sun
didnt see any barangs ever there in 15 years, but I guess there may have been in the early days
Re: Rising Sun
I like the Sundance but the breakfast isn't anything to write home about. Sony Side Up across the street is better.

Re: Rising Sun
I haven't had a decent fried breakfast in years, prob box office was best I have had here but that was a long time ago now
Some places come close but always either the bacon or sausage or both are substandard
I do prefer a Scottish or an Irish than an english breakfast though - tinned tomatoes are pure bullshit and should have nothing to do with food that isn't pasta related

Re: Rising Sun
Right, but not for too long. I was there last week and I was told that the lease is coming to end in a near future and the current management is scouting for future location.Doc67 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 29, 2022 11:22 pmIf you do manage to turn an empty shell into a thriving business the landlords will keep a very envious eye on it. As an example, I understand that Bouchon Wine Bar had a nice place and built a good business and their landlord tried to triple the rent upon lease renewal time. The landlords are parasitical and if you have done a good job and built a thriving business (through skill, experience and hard work) they think they deserve their share of it.Bongmab69 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 29, 2022 9:47 pm I think its the problem with any bussiness in PP, only the landlords get rich from it. I still cant remember one bussiness really made money in PP runned by a barang and serving drink and/or food. Maybe with Covid more people realise that they are filling a bothemless hole. As long a the rents stay like that, i will be sitting on the "good side" from the bar. But of course, 99% of the guys who are going bankrupt on these kind of bussiness wont tell it !!
They moved and now have a beautiful building in street 174.

Maybe the landlords want to build a soulless ugly apartment block.
