LB in Korat

[Guest]

Looking for Lb in Korat, any ideas?

[ShockToe]

Which city or town (Korat is a province)? Nakhon Ratchasima? Do you speak Thai? While I haven't spent any time in Nakhon Ratchasima, other than passing through on a bus, I have spent a lot of time in the northeast. There is no shortage of LB's, although a lot are under 18, and extremely cute. Usually in each town or city there will be a few nightclubs, discos, karaoke bars. Sometimes one is close to the bus station, for some reason? You will not have any problems finding nice, cute, attractive LBs. There are usually short-time rooms nearby. Obviously no barfines, and payment is sometimes optional but recommended for a foreigner. There are a lot to be found working in restaurants (open air, with a band: suki, Korean BBQ, etc.) as waiters. I'll ask around for the names of specific clubs, if I see LB's who I know are from Korat.

The bus station in NR is huge as it it is a transfer point between the northeast to the east, avoiding Bangkok/Mor Chit. This would also be a place to make contact, possibly.

Shocktoe,

Thanks for the info, however you have it wrong. Nakhon Ratchasima is the province and Korat is the town. Nakhon Ratchasima includes, Pak Chong, Buri Ram, Chock Chai, and many more of the cities in the area called Issan.

I think we both made mistakes. The province is indeed called Nakhon Ratchasima, and captial city is also called both Nakhon Ratchasima and Khorat. (My digital map, which is normally accurate, just refers to the city as Nakhon Ratchasima, but other on-line maps show it as "Nakhon Ratchasima (Khorat)"). All the road/highway signs say "Nakhon Ratchasima". This certainly clears up a misunderstanding I had a for a few years.

Now I need to know why they named a nearby city "101"? AKA, LB captial of Issan.

Tasty steaks in Chok Chai, BTW. Also available at their steakhouse on Sukhumvit Soi 23.

Anyway, good luck. I doubt you'll have any problems finding suitable company, but do be careful on the age thing.

Sorry, I frogot to mention hotels as well. Nakhon Ratchasima is a pretty large city so there are a few big hotels. I noticed one last week passing by, pretty sure it was on the main road (route 2). These hotels will have both karaoke and a disco, typically. Should be some talent there. And if staying at one of these hotels just ask where the biggest disco is in town, and go there.
