Shax Posted April 5 Posted April 5 2 hours ago, jamiebee said: This is really sad. And now it's already April and still no news of reopening. Tawan guys are my type. My first time in Bangkok last year, almost every other day I'm in Tawan. Do you anyone have any recommendations of where you could find or where to for Tawan-type guys? The closest alternative (though not quite the same) would probably be Arena massage, or the Moonlight models (real pricey though). I'm still holding hope that they will announce a re-opening, maybe at a new place or something (and hopefully before my upcoming trip) 🙏🙏🙏. jamiebee 1 Quote

Mapraou Posted April 7 Posted April 7 I’ve just chatted to one of my Tawan Boy friends I’ve known for over 12 yrs. He dropped into Soi Tawan last night, partly for ‘old times sake’ and meet up with a few of the other guys and have a drink. He is scraping by working as Grab driver. I asked if he thought it would re-open and his response was ‘ยังไม่มีกำหนดเปิดครับ‘ [there is no opening date yet]and ‘รอต่อไปครับ’ [keep waiting] Hard to tell from that. 😒 reader, jamiebee, splinter1949 and 1 other 4 Quote

orson Posted April 7 Posted April 7 A tawan frequent customer told me the cause was one of the cabaret performer. I’ve never liked that part of the show. It’s ironic that it is the cause of tawan’s downfall. i don’t understand why the boss insists in having that part of the show. Tawan is known for muscle and chubs, not fairies and twinks. vinapu 1 Quote
Popular Post TotallyOz Posted April 7 Popular Post Posted April 7 Yes, famous for muscle but also had a fair share of twinks if you got there at the right time. The bar was not closed because of the cabaret. I have never heard of the police closing for shitty performance. Otherwise, I don't think any would be left. I just don't like the shows though. Luckily for me, the "love of my life" who I met at the bar is still with me for many moons and he keeps in touch with all of his friends and I have had quiet a few muscle boys in my place as of late. @floridarob I know you were a skeptic for the love but it is almost like singing Celine Dion when he wakes up each morning (loud). reader, floridarob, vinapu and 2 others 2 1 2 Quote

reader Posted April 7 Author Posted April 7 As time passes "why" the bar closed becomes less of an issue, replaced by "where the boys are" now. It appears that their admirers are best advised to visit the area of the 7-Eleven. I'd be surprised if any of the guys are shy about chatting with strangers and more than they were when the bar was open. jamiebee and vinapu 2 Quote

We are waiting for reports of first sightings of them somewhere. jamiebee and Nathan_B 1 1 Quote

Certainly that short stretch of soi 6 has it's share of mysterious business disappearance recently, Coffee Grinder is still mourned by many including myself which is telling since I'm not even coffee drinker. floridarob and reader 2 Quote
roughjock Posted April 9 Posted April 9 Confirmed that the models are now sitting on their bikes outside of the 7-Eleven on the Main Street right outside where the bar was. 5 tonight at 12:00 PM. Big, big dudes but older. Did not approach them. Walked by and smiled and they did not engage. Will hire later and report back. Shax, jamiebee and vinapu 1 2 Quote

My plan is to approach them and say "Are you from Tawan?" and negotiate from there. I am hoping they take 2500 THB for a no sex muscle worship session. Honestly, I just want to massage one of their bodies. My likes are particular. I find that rate reasonable but expect to be taken for much more. I'll report back. jamiebee and vinapu 2 Quote

I think you are right 2500 for short time is quite generous considering that they even don't have bar to work in now. I wish you luck and waiting for report. I always maintain that Tawan bay was most friendly of them all and their boys were very approachable. jamiebee 1 Quote

roughjock Posted April 10 Posted April 10 Narrowed it down to Red Planet (5 min away, stayed here before, no hassle bringing guest as reception is not at the entrance, but not very nice room) or The Quarter Silom (1 min away, looks nice, unsure of guest policy.) jamiebee 1 Quote

WelshGuyUK Posted April 10 Posted April 10 The Quarter is very good indeed. Price gone up a lot since it first opened but great service and nice rooms. Even had Netflix and an open account left by previous occupant 😆 In short, very very convenient 👍 jamiebee 1 Quote
