So after checking into Medgar on Friday paying 2000peso i quicly texted Bro Ziebart knowing fully well that he is in town and not wanting to miss out on catching up with him this time.
So well well i had the honour and pleasure of meeting bro Ziebart. and to be honest with everyone here i thought that i knew the INs and Outs of ACs..... But my 2 days with Bro Ziebart was a humbling experience. Everyone seemed to know him.. Be they the bar girls, mama sans, Bar managers or Bar general managers or even people on the street.
i Was brought to my senses that my idea of AC was my idea alone and that learning never ends. yes it was a humbling experience.
On day 1 i started off at Kokomos (just a resto) to warm up and then went off to Body Shop. Oh missed Suave music lounge in between. From Suave (they had a mexican eat all you can buffet for p500) to Honey Pot and Butterfly... wonderful experience. I liked the way Bro Ziebart involved the girls in the bar. He involved almost everyone and almost everyone seemed to know him and enjoyed the games. He had creative games up his sleeve and gifts for girls who won. While i am still learning from him how to suss up a girl and buy an LD i must add that its gonna be a very long time before i perfect the art.
Finally Bro Ziebart settled with 2 girls for the night while i had my teacher to give me company.... We then hit the videoke bars on the almost paralled street as the girls wanted to sing. Although i had walked down the road several times i had never actually walked into any bars... On the girls insistence we went in and realised that it was 5p a song.
Cheap hor!!! For those of you looking for plush environs look elsewhere..
Finally ended the night close to 0130am
Moral of the story : Spend your money. YOu are here to enjoy anyway. However look for value for dollar. Dun be a typical Singaporean parrotting "cheap cheap cheap" and then spoil market.
That is one of the main reasons why the Ang Mohs hate us..... I learnt that the Ang Mohs rarely tip more than 5-10p to a waitress on Perimeter road and yet we Singaporeans think nothing of tipping 50p to sometimes even 100p.
The Ang Mohs are here.... staying on for several months. So obviously they spend their money wisely. They look for bars that have happy hours and free food ofcourse good entertainment included...
now i am not suggesting that we must do what the ang mohs do. But my suggestion is that we must not spoil market and we must get value for money.
for those who dun value money please will your assets to me
Id be delighted.
