hi frogblogger,
Probably need a coffee shop where we could [usually] gather outside - unless a non-smoking establishment. where eating would be optional - perhaps just coffee or tea and maybe a breakfast roll. The primary goal is for friends to gather on a purely social basis.
As for my "other" pleasures - they're more of a nocturnal nature but they don't lend themselves to smokey, loud bars.
Some expats of a similar philosophy should consider a non-smoking establishment with GOOD music where you can actually carry on a conversation with yelling or losing our hearing!
One of the nicest places I ever visited was a restaurant along the old highway to Don Meung Airport in Bangkok. They had a live band and singers playing Chinese music, the food was excellent and the Chinese lanterns in the trees added a special ambiance. There was a similar restaurant in Chiang Mai but not sure it's still in business. Dinner only, classical Chinese music and singers. Nice!
