In Bangkok near Patpong there is a street called "Soi Thaniya"... cab drivers should know it. Go there and you'll be in Japan-heaven. It's modelled after Hostess districts in Tokyo, with lots of karaoke places, hostess clubs, Japanese restaurants... all of the girls speak at least a little Japanese, they've all adopted Japanese names, and they look Japanese (with the cute clothes and tinted hair). I went there about a year ago and it was great. I went to a hostess club with some buddies and we were faced with a wall of ladies jumping at the chance to sing some karaoke with us. We chose our ladies and then had a couple of fun hours belting out tunes. I ended up taking my girl home for about 2000THB. Unfortunately, like Japanese girls, I was duped by a fake rack! I thought she was a D-cup in the karaoke place and she turned out to be an A after she took off the padding. Still had a great time though. A word of warning - because they cater to Japanese customers, prepare to pay Japanese prices (or at least close to them), You can probably negotiate with the girls a bit more freely, but the shops generally stick to their pricing (although who knows during low season).
