Any Doorman, concierge or Bartender, who knows his job, will have a small list of "lady friends" from BKK for which to recommend. Many will have pictures, some will offer them up. I also have two regular drivers that i use in BKK, i know that they can hook me up, and since I'm a regular customer, they will give me the best.In Vietnam, i found an honest taxi driver who used the meter, and who spoke decent English. When I told him i wanted to go to a well known MP Massage parlor, he took me there, he waited for me outside to see if i wanted to stay, a smart guy. When I came back out and told him the lineup was not very good, he then kindly offered to "introduce me" to a young lady he knew, a motor bike girl. he said that she would arrive within 10-15 minutes, and that I had first right of refusal, and could say Yes or No, without any obligation.
He made the call, and gave the girl our location, waiting in a well lighted public hotel parking lot at the front door, so nothing was shady. Meanwhile, we chatted in broken English, and he was really a nice guy. In about 10 minutes, the motor bike girl arrived, it was around midnight, she has a guy driver for the motorbike, dismounted, and took off her helmet... a stunner.
She spoke decent English, pretty Viet girl w long hair, was a 9 face, a 9 body, nice rack, and 23 years old, a student who was not a pro, what a dream !! When i asked the price it was 700,000 Viet Money, about $35-40 USD as i recall, plus the hotel room was 150k dong, so total was about $50 US for FS. The hotel was near District 1, ST room, very clean and safe. Taxi Driver waited in the lobby, in nice AC comfort. this gal was excellent in FS and did it all, full GFE menu, and was da bomb. Taxi drive only wanted 120k for all of his time, a few hours, of course i tipped him well, and used him for the rest of the trip.
Sorry to disgress for a moment, but a variation of dining in- kind of like "drive thru service", but a good adventure, and great experience for those who always wanted a cute motorbike girl, fairly safe, and great service from a pretty Viet girl. I have always be partial to Viet girls, and this was no exception. I know some local BKK taxi drivers are connected, esp those working the evening and night shift, and they can call their girl, meet u in the hotel or in the lobby, and you decide if she is the one for you. If you reject her, give her a decent tip and taxi money for her trouble, maybe 300-500 baht ($15 USD) and thank her and kindly send her on her way. Be sure you understand the girls going rate for ST or LT, that you want FS after the masssge, and then there is no misunderstanding. If she arrives and tries to upsell, boot her to the curb - quickly.
Tip: If you tell the bellman, concierge or bartender - exactly what you want, type of girl, age, looks, body type, some English skills, you will generally not be disappointed. In room service, you tell them how you want your steak cooked, salad dressing on the side, no ice in the drink etc - so be specific. YES - we all know the middle man get a cut of the action, and maybe a nice tip from you for the arranged service, but what the heck, if you want to dine in- the prices for room servive is always more than eating at the restaurant, so prices are appropriate.
There are days you simply want room service, and I'm certain it is available in BKK, you goota be flexible and realize the meal may vary (YMMV) - it all depends on the chef. Bob appetite ....
