A Visit to Bangkok's Cherry Massage - Not!

My friends know I've been living in Thailand for a while now so I'm pretty much the official tour guide as well as their pet guinea pig.

So one of my buddies coming over to Bangkok soon is doing his research and he came across Cherry Massage over on Sukhumvit Soi 24/1. I have been there before a couple a years ago but never been back since. And just recently he read somewhere on another blog that Cherry Massage is really good.

My first visit to Cherry was not so good. But if you've been following my blog you'll know that I do not like to slam any type of adult establishment in Thailand. So if an oil massage parlor or go go bar is not worth your money or time I simply will not mention it here on my blog instead of writing up a nasty review and potentially ruining a business.

Anyways, my first visit to Cherry wasn't so pleasant and I didn't have a good first impression. Sure inside the joint looked good and the Mamasan was plenty nice. But the ladies. Let's just say Cherry Massage doesn't have a website ( or even a fully informational website at best ) with photos of their ladies for a good reason.

My friend asked me for a favor if I could go over and scope out the joint. Sort a like run a recon and see if they've got any beautiful ladies on their line up. And he's paying for it. So why not?

So I strolled down to Sukhumvit 24/1, passed Snow White Massage, Apple Massage. I saw some hotties at Dream Massage and was tempted. But like a good soldier I kept my mind on the mission and I was almost there.

Cherry Massage is located right before Angel Massage which is the last shop on this oily massage lane. As I came closer to my goal I saw at least 5 massage ladies sitting outside and as soon as they saw me and all our eyes I met I immediately turned away. Abort. Abort. Abort the mission!

Thank the lord I still have 20/20 vision. For the brief 2 to 3 seconds I could see there was no one I would ever hump away on and spend my waste my good friend's cash on. And typically, these types of joints place their best looking ladies outside to attract punters. To be fair, perhaps Cherry's best looking ladies are busy upstairs with customers. Either way, that just means I wouldn't be sticking around their shop because I certainly wouldn't pick the ladies hanging around outside their establishment.

Screw my friend and his money. If he really wants to know what Cherry is like he's just gonna have to find out for himself.

As I walked past the ladies they started calling out "Hello, Mister. Massage!" but already my mind was buzzing at a blur calculating where I should go instead as I had time to kill. There are a handful of excellent oilys right in the area at my fingertip.

I was tempted to make a B line right to Angels or I could've headed over to the other Dream Massage on Soi 26 for a Nuru Massage.

But there was a particular massage girl I haven't been with for a little while over at Premier 101 Massage so I made that snap decision to head over and say hello and spend 1.5 hours with the lovely massage girl named Venus.

Venus came over from Angel's Massage and she is quite the popular girl. And I was lucky that I could pick her out last Friday as she only works on weekends now. But her work schedule is hit or miss so I highly recommend making a booking or at least call to make sure she's in for the day.

Normally on this blog I do not tell the names of my favorite massage girls. But since this is around Christmas time I figured I'd throw my blog readers a bone. Don't say I've never given you guys a gift.

Not only does Venus have an awesome body she also has a wonderful service oriented and bubbly attitude. If you're the type of guy though that doesn't like to chat then you might want to skip her. Because she loves to talk which I don't mind at all. You can even speak to her in English. But I am not exaggerating one bit, she does have a lovely body and a cute face.

Also Venus is one of the handful of girls that only allow one shot for customers in Premier 101 massage. Staff at the massage parlor will show you a photo album of their ladies and below the photos you'll see their information on the kinds of services they provide. And it'll also show whether or not their ladies offer 1 or 2 shots to customers. She tells me that a lot of customers are disappointed that she only offers 1 shot and make a big stink about it. Guys, I know we all think with our dicks but seriously, read the ladies profiles, it's all clearly written.

I'm not the kind of guy that would totally discredit an establishment and vow to never go to a certain place ever again. Massage parlors do change and there have been instances where massage girls make a mass exodus to a newer shop with better salary and working conditions.

I don't want to be a dick. Maybe I could've made a simple attempt to walk inside and just take a look anyways. Maybe Cherry is an oil massage joint with beautiful girls in hiding.

So would I ever make my way inside of Cherry Massage? Perhaps. I do frequent Sukhumvit 24/1 often and I will keep an eye out for some cuties like I always do.

Pangviman Place Resotel, Chiang Mai

Last month I was in Chiang Mai for one of my running adventures and the required visit to Doi Suthep.

We stayed at the Panviman Place Resotel since it seemed to be nearest to the running event, which turned out to be just a three minute walk from the hotel.

One other very favorable reason to book this place was the price, it's a bargain and it has all you need; a fairly big room, fast internet in the room, a pool, a/c and for Thai standards a good breakfast.

The location was fairly central and the staff very friendly and helpful with arranging for transportation when needed.

Recommended if you need a cheap stay and still want all 'the works'

Baandin Chiewlarn Resort, Chiew Larn

We stayed here last night and the resort located inside the Rajjaprabha Dam park, which also hosts parts of the Khao Sok National Park. There's lots of beautiful nature surrounding Chiew Larn and the Baandin Chiewlarn Resort is in the midst of it.

Upon arrival we loved it immediately, but once in the room the wall between the other room was very thin and we could almost everything from the other room.

The owner and staff are great though and very friendly and helpful and during the evening there was a nice barbecue going on. Bring your own meat and give it a go! There are a couple of family sized rooms at decent rates.

One thing that turned us off though was a karaoke at the other side of the river that kept blaring music until 11pm to midnight and destroyed the so lovely natural feel of the place.

My Recent Bangkok's EZ2 Massage Experience

EZ2 Massage is the first shop you'll see coming down Suk 24/1

I usually space out the time I visit an oil massage shop and I think the last time I've been to EZ2 Massage on Sukhumvit Soi 24/1 was around 6 or 7 months ago.

The reason is most shops typically find newer girls to fill their roster in about 6 months or so. Some sooner some later. It all depends on how aggressive they are on their recruitment.

Like the rest of the other oil massage shops on Soi 24/1 EZ2 is one of the small ones except for Angels Massage located on the end of Soi 24/1 which is the largest and possibly the most famous.

But I like checking out the smaller shops because you'd never know you might be pleasantly surprised. So I checked out EZ2 a few weeks ago and I got there around 2pm on a weekend. I usually go a little bit later because most girls don't show. up for work around 4pm. And whatever girls they have in the early afternoon live on the premise of the massage shops.

But I had time to kill and getting a massage and a screw is not a shabby way to pass the time. Besides I've had good experiences at EZ2 and at their other location EZ1 not far on Sukhumvit Soi 24 just opposite the Emporium Mall. Both shops open at 11am and close midnight.

One of the rooms at EZ2 Massage

When I got in I was the only customer inside and was quickly greeted by a mamasan who quickly showed me a price menu. I chose the 1 hour gel massage which only cost 2100THB. Then she showed me the photos of girls available.

This time there seems to be less photos. Which means less massage girl. But during this trip I recall there were only 10 photos. Five of those girls were fairly attractive but they were not in yet. So I chose the best girl I could see available dismissing the mamasans suggestions.

So the mamasan called her out but told me she's a small girl so she can't give a long massage. I said no problem. I wasn't really there for a massage anyways.

As you all may know I kind of have a rule where I don't tell the names of the girls I choose. So let's call her Bun.

A standard shower stall

First time I saw Bun I could sort of understand why the mamasan said what she said. Bun was indeed a tiny girl. She's at least a little under 150cm and when I asked her later on she said she was 39 kilo. She said she is 19 years old but she looked younger to me.

Bun led me to a room upstairs and started going though the routine, take clothes off and off to take a quick shower. She wasn't playful and seemed a bit shy but I do have to say she's a cute girl. After getting me cleaned up she showered herself while I waited for a few minutes on bed.

She started with the massage first and I could feel she was putting some effort even while I dozed off a bit. After 10 minutes or so she asked me to turn around in Thai. She can barely speak English because she said she just came from Isaan to work at EZ2 a few months ago.

Then she started on what I came to EZ2 for. Again she was a bit shy but she was enjoying it as much as I was I could tell you.

Overall Bun was a fun experience to me and definitly an hour well spent. I always liked EZ2 though I can't say it's the best oil massage shop on Sukhumvit Soi 24.

If you check out their website you'll see EZ Massage shops have dozens of ladies. And a lot of them are hot. But I cant' say for sure if all those girls are working there. Maybe I just have to visit them more often.
