If you want a bar that's open 24 hours, 7 days a week,365 days a year and has been continiously open for the last 38 years (Under a few different names) then this is the place to go. The staff are nice. The prices are medium. Lots of expats from various places that are mostly helpful

Things can sometimes get a little rough and boisterous in the evenings, but only adds to the ambience and entertainment. That said, be cautious of your valuables if sitting outside, as there is lots of traffic, both foot...
Read moreWas raining a lot so went here to take cover and had dinner. The staff were ok, not very excited to be there working, I think rather be out doing other things. The coconut rice with chicken I had wasn’t prepared well. The chicken was dry ( been either over cooked or reheated again ) the rice was fried too much and some was rock hard. The other dish had similar issues with the chicken and was bland. On the other hand the smoothie was quite good, couldn’t complain along with the spring rolls.
Would I go back again, unfortunately not. Maybe just a bad night for the...
