Scammed at Larry’s Bar
Re: Scammed at Larry’s Bar
I dont know about charity, but i know veryvery well one of the girls who works there +10 years, and she respects Larry similar as buddah. When she arrived in PP without money, room or food as a young girl, he took her from the street in, and offered here room, food and free english school if she came to work for him. Now 10 years later she still works there and speaks decent english. I always wonderded how he find his staff, because they all speak good english in my eyes. Now i know how it works there !!

Nice to have such information here. This may seem like an uncomfortable fact. But there's nothing wrong with warning the community about these errors here. So will keep an eye on the cash even at the more established venues in town from now on.

Larry is smart enough never to post on discussion boards like this one.angsta wrote: ↑Wed Jul 05, 2023 8:18 amHe does a great deal of work for charity?

Try talking to Larry before doing damage to his business. He does so much to help locals (especially street kids and beggars) and deserves better than comments like yours.
Someone clearly can't handle the truth.
It's a small town. What is Larry saying about this? They have WiFi.

Re: Scammed at Larry’s Bar
My goodness, a simple warning and not so good food review and some characters feel the urge to behave like the Thai internet authorities. Luckily, this is not Thailand.
In other words, it is perfectly fine to criticize food and expose unacceptable practices. This is a good service especially when it comes from a respectable and well-established contributor with lots of experience in the industry. One might expect that the business would reach out to Hanno and see what can be done. Apparently, no such interest. That in itself is a second warning. They are enough alternatives in PP.

It all seems a bit knee-jerk, and Larry has to scramble to rectify something that was not brought to his attention earlier.
Maybe Hanno made a mistake. He says no way, but so does the girl.
I don't know. But nor do you, or anyone else.
Meanwhile, Larry suffers.
I'll visit.
