GOGO BAR REVIEW: the Dollhouse Agogo, Bangkok Thailand

The Expat Player here, this weeks GoGo review will be the Dollhouse Agogo located on Soi 23 Sukhumvit Road, downtown Bangkok. I went there with James Grey (he hates gogo bars so I had to drag him along) and Nick Gatsby.

Alott of people like the Nana Entertainment Plaza for hitting up gogo bars when they are in Bangkok but I prefer Soi Cowboy. In my opinion it is a bit cleaner and the girls are less pushy, I also like to check out all of the gogo bars just by walking down the street (nana is more like a multi-level strip mall).

When you first walk into the Dollhouse Agogo you see the familiar dancing stage with stripper poles and a bar in the back. We grabbed a seat at the bar cuz James G wanted to get his drink on and ordered a few drinks and took in the sights.

They had a bunch of girls dancing that ranged from -1 up to solid 7’s with allot in-between. The waitstaff was nice and not pushy and the gogo girls were also friendly and not pushy.

After I had a couple of drinks I spotted a cutie dancing on a pole like her tail was on fire and waved her to come over. So after her pole routine was up she came over for a seat, 5’ 4, an above average bust, some blond streaks in her long hair and a great smile – I would rate her a soft 7 on the gogo girl looks scale.

I bought her a Lady Drink (usually an overpriced coke) and we talked about world politics, the current global financial crisis and socioeconomic issues in Southeast Asia for a wile.

Just kidding…

She shot me the usual: “what your name?”, “where you from?”, “you handsome man” and “how long you stay in Bangkok?” in Thai pidgin English routine.

And I responded with my standard gogo girl answers: “John Smith”, “Canada”, “I know” and “as long as you want me to stay”.

While I was hanging out with my new found love James G was getting smashed drunk and Nick was chatting up some other gogo girl. You pretty much can’t bring James G anywhere that sells liquor without him getting sauced because he is attracted to alcohol like a moth is attracted to a flame. And Nick speaks the local lingo so he is always trying to sweet talk the gogo dancers into a regular freebee side thing.

I ended up barfining my new friend, the last I saw of James G he was slumped over the bar and Nick was getting a number.

The Dollhouse Agogo is now a recommended gogo spot in Bangkok in the Expat Players book now.

I give the Bangkok Dollhouse Agogo 6 1/2 Stripper Poles out of 10.
