Wow, lots of posts to read lately. Well, over the last 1 month, I've had the opportunity to meet, hang out with and get to know fellow Samsters such as our Chairman Reaper, Octlong, Lexbuckle, Carrot, Vlover, VKillers and Zhaoshanghe. I've really had a great time talking with and drinking with each and every one of these guys and have learned a lot about HCM while having lots of fun at the same time. It's refreshing to meet kindred spirits and it has made me look forward to each and every one of my trips to HCM....ok the stunning gers we tend to run into every night out have a SMALL part to play in that feeling too

My humble opinion on some of the places we've visited on nights out.

Windows 4 Cafe(12 Alexandre De Rhodes) - nice large restaurant/coffee shop. I had actually been here once with a salon girl before but was back here with Carrot and Vlover on my last trip. We weren't there at quite the right time to see LOTS of pretty FL's but did see a couple that showed the potential of this place. Good place to chill and relax and watch the scenery. Can sit outside if it's not too hot.

Gossip(79 Tran Hung Dao, D1) - Always had a good time here. Nice sized crowd. Music is good, the girls are hot and looking to party. Had my drinking/dancing/frenching experience with an FL here the first night. Ran into her a few days later at Palace and then again at Gossip. May bring her back next time just to wipe the slate clean.

She was attractive and fun though.

Palace(56-66 Nguyen Hue in Palace Hotel D1) - Was surprisingly quite empty the two times we went(perhaps too early?). However has some very hot stage dancers with CFM looks that the club employs and one particular PR that I liked VERY much and would like to see again for sure

Tips were 100K-200K based on personal preference.

Club 16 - pub with an olderish live band who plays mostly local music but some Western covers as well. Definitely has some very cute PR's though knowing the language will definitely be a big asset here as in most places in HCM. Shared a good laugh with one of the PR's at the bar when she noticed me checking out the nice plumbers crack of the PR beside her

The PR I had spoke a little bit of cantonese so had fun getting her to count up and down. My pocket Vietnamese dictionary came in handy here though learning the language will ultimately be a better option. Tips here are 50K-100K. Pretty much no touch and rubba rubba here so would need to go to KTV for that next time.

96 Ngyuen Thi Minh Khai(Butterfyl Bar it's called I think) Another smallish disco that had a pretty good and cute female DJ the night that I remember there. Had quite a bit of fun dancing with one of the uniformed clad PR's there. She was lots of fun and had killer eyes(which I love) and a nice body. Really enjoyed dancing with her though the only downside is she often disappeared for rather long stretches at a time for who knows what reason. Tips again were 100K-200K based on personal preference.

I also spent lots of time and really enjoyed playing pool opposite the old Arena with Reaper, Octlong, Vkillers and Lexbuckle. All the guys I've met know how much I like to shoot pool and with so many pretty ger's walking around it's given me lots of reason and incentive to learn and improve my Vietnamese. If you do go, pls. remember to treat the gers nicely and respectfully(that goes for all places here in general) Thanks also to Octlong for taking me to the Saigon market where the movies are really cheap.

For reference, the Lien An Hotel(37-41 Le Anh Xuan) was ger friendly on my stays there. If you are a single guy staying, the bellboy/bellman will undoubtedly ask you directly if you want a massage girl to come to your room later. US$50 for ST, US$100 for LT. One Samster told me he had an alright experience with it. My experience was not good but your mileage may vary. My ger wasn't pretty in the face and wore lots of makeup(4/10 overall though she had a nice cute body) and not very co-operative and in the end I ended up bringing her down to change. As it was quite late and I had to work the next day, I declined the 2nd girl who was a slight improvement in looks. The desk manager offered to bring me out another night to choose a better girl but I ended up not taking him up on the offer as I was always out late with the other samsters pretty much every night.

There are three hair wash salons near to the hotel. The one next door I went to twice and had two very hot girls who I saw later on so I didn't get to try. One dressed in reg clothes had a great CFM look and the other who I saw using the computer at the back was just drop dead gorgeous. However, as the front entrance is quite small, only a handful of ger's sit at the front(probably on rotation) and the rest hang out in the back at the computers hidden from view until you get to the hair wash section! Did have a wonderful massage(one of the best I've had in a salon) on one of my trips here. Tips at salons are usually 50K-100K depending on your preference and much you enjoyed it. I occasionally tip higher if I had a really great time which I sometimes do as I love the salon experience here.

Also had a great time at the salon across the street next to the Singaporean restaurant(on the left side if you are facing the restaurant). The ger was very friendly and ended up staying with her for over 2 hours. Regarding the Singapore restaurant next door I know that some don't like this restaurant or the owner but in honesty, I ate here 3 or 4 times and got take away once and I always found the food to be good quality and reasonably priced. The yoghurt drinks are quite good too. Just my opinion though.

It's impossible to understate the importance of language here. While body language can and is used very often here, knowing how to speak Vietnamese will exponentially enhance the amount of fun and overall experience you have here. It's quite fun yet enviable at the same time to watch some of our more experienced members in the language such as Reaper and Carrot really flirt with the girls we meet. In terms of making them feel comfortable and making them laugh, there's no substitute for being able to speak the language. I've only been trying to learn for a few weeks now but there's no question that I have many many long haired walking talking reasons to do so. A good English-Vietnamese/Vietnamese-English pocket dictionary is a must and is a useful and fun conversation starter with gers. I'm also listening to some Pimsleur language MP3's and I find this a good way to learn over the usual audio language lessons.
There's also a Tieng Viet lover's thread in the Adult Discussions section of this forum that has a lot of useful words in it.

Having now set up a HCM base of operations to work from when I'm in town(a big thanks to Reaper for his help), I look forward to many future nights of fun in this wonderful city with the great people I've met so far.

Cheers,
Ice
