The_Munchmaster Posted November 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2012 One week later and things are looking up although I doubt they would have had a soft opening last night? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Munchmaster Posted November 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 From todays Stickman column: Popular Irish pub The Dubliner had a soft opening at its new location in Sukhumvit soi 33/1 this past Friday but when I walked past earlier today it seemed closed... Does Stick know if it really had a soft opening on Friday or is he just basing his statement on the above notice, coz it certainly didn't look to me as if it would have happened.

The_Munchmaster Posted November 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 i walked by about 4pm and was told that it was opening in about 1 hour, so should be open now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Munchmaster Posted December 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 Went back about 6.30pm and it was heaving. I stayed until about 9pm and I reckon it was even busier then. Of course this may have had something to do with the free beer, which I didn't know about until after I got there. Guinness ran out at 7.45pm and they were telling everyone it would be back on in one hour, however they were pouring again in 30 minutes. Fortunately for me I got a fresh pint just before it ran out and the new stuff was online just as I finished that pint. Can't tell much about the bar (except it's big) coz it was so packed I couldn't see anything! In Vientiane now so I'll visit again when I get back.

The_Munchmaster Posted December 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 I may have to cut my trip short as it is so expensive here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Munchmaster Posted July 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Went to the Dubliner tonight for a bite to eat, walked in the front door and about 2 seconds later turned around and walked back out again! The noise level of the band was waaay OTT, there was no way I'd have been able to hear myself eat and I don't know how those inside trying to have conversations could possibly hear each other. Wasn't sure where I was going to go instead but as I passed the Robin Hood, which isn't a pub I particularly like, I noticed that they were showing The Ashes so I stopped for some dinner and a few beers. Tried the Chicken Tikka and rice, nothing wrong with it but nothing special about it either. Heineken pints were B100. Crazy day of cricket. After being bowled out for 215 the previous day, England had reduced Australia to 117 for 9 only for the Australian 11th man, on his debut, to score 98, the highest score by an 11th man in the history of test cricket!! The Aussies were eventually all out for 280, a lead of 65. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Robin Hood is all right, but nothing to particularly draw you back to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
