Dumsoda Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 555555555555555 classic Was great to catch up with everyone again...it's been a while Det 5 is a pleasant venue, very suited to accommodate a laid back chatfest The "balloon chaser" food at 7.30pm was quite good....limited in choice but more than sufficient in terms of quality & quantity I am a fan of Soi 8, over the past few years it has developed into a good place to be.

Coss Posted August 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Very pleasant start to the evening, about 10~12 people, good food, and chats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Took me a while to find, further down the soi than I'd expected. Also, I had the name wrong and thought I was looking for Det Cord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khunsanuk Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Hi, "Det 5 is a pleasant venue, very suited to accommodate a laid back chatfest" I agree. Never been there before, but it was quite pleasant. Reasonable selection of food as well, at good prices. Interesting to see that just before the free food started the place all of a sudden started to get packed Sanuk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekong Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Took me a while to find, further down the soi than I'd expected. Also, I had the name wrong and thought I was looking for Det Cord. The original name does have connections to Vietnam. If memory serves me right it is down to an Operational Detachment of US Army who where looking for MIA in Nam, Joint Task Force - Full Accounting, the original bar in Soi Zero was the unofficial HQ of the Fifth Detachment of JFT-NA hence the reason it was christened DET 5. KS is correct, 7.30PM all the balloon chasers came out of the woodwork, surprised we did not see Cavanami, You out of Town? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pom Michael Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Original name was Sexy Night (or Sexy Nite) Det 5. The Sexy Nite is still in Nana Plaza. Mekong's story is similar to what I remember back in 1992 at Jusmag. Det 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
