| In high season, Lamai rivals Chaweng for ambience and choice. Some very stylish bars and bistros have opened, and in addition to long-established "Bauhaus" discotechque, there are now at least one or two others. Of course the obligatory girlie bars are also there in large numbers.
Billabong bar on the main strip near McDonalds (yes Lamai now has the Big Mac) has a good sound system, friendly staff and posts the days televised sporting events on a blackboard.
The Siam Bar and Grill is trying hard to establish themselves as the place to go for live entertainment. An Elvis show, live band, and ladies mud wrestling are among the treats in store for you in their air-conditioned premises. While just down the street at Banana Boat bar you can take in a ladyboy (transsexual) cabaret style stage show. |
