I'd believe many things reported about that trio of bars.

I'd give him benefit of doubt here.

Seems entirely plausible.

The last time I was in Mr Butterfly the toilets had overflowed, but no staff gave a fuck.

Myself and my mate were standing at the door from the bar to the toilet pissing into the flooded chamber from outside.

A classy joint.

There should be a guide to the ripoff places

It could be distributed to every expat.

mmm, what would the distribution channel be.

German speakers might not normally read this site before coming to KOW.

I'm pretty sure 90% of expats will manage quite fine without this.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

So that's why you're posting this on a thread about an expat who made the mistake of going into a complete ripoff bar.
There's a joke about intelligence somewhere here.
You think this German was one of the 10%?
