I don't know much about gin, but from a gin site about drinking gin like Vinapu, straight, the gin that is.: Not only can you drink gin neat but it's actually the best way to try a bottle of gin, at least for the first time. Some gin enthusiasts prefer this way of drinking gin completely compared to mixing it with tonic or in a cocktail as doing so allows you to experience its full spectrum of flavours. vinapu 1 Quote

The gogo bars of Bangkok have equal appeal, I think, to gay men of any culture. See my story about the Chinese visitor in Fresh Boy in my story https://shamelessmacktwo.travel.blog/2024/09/27/pouffes-ahoy-at-fresh-boy/ This guy took to things like duck to water. It was kind of you to help the first time Chinese tourist! I am surprised that there wasn't a Mandarin-speaking mamasan at Freshboys that night! Every bar has at least one. Quote

I know that Dreamboys definitely has a Mandarin speaking mamasan as they do the announcements in Thai, English and Mandarin as I found out one night whilst listening closely. Quote
