It's believe it's Street 21, and you're extremely unlikely to just wander into it. It's basically in a little wedge between Southearous and Norodom, bordered by Psah Kap Koh and Wat Svay Popay and Wat Thann. Around Wat Thann is one of the last remaining low-rent neighborhoods in that area. Across Sothearous you of course still have Boudeng. It's nothing like it used to be, when there were vast tin-shack slums spread out all around there. It's still not a neighborhood I would particularly want to live in.Jamie_Lambo wrote:where is ballsack lane?

There are a few places around there that might fit that description, but I wouldn't say it's filled with anything. Oh for the old days when we used to have such fun nearby Ieng Sary's villa in that glamorous neighborhood.Jamie_Lambo wrote:and this place is full of hipster bars?Lucky Lucan wrote:It's believe it's Street 21, and you're extremely unlikely to just wander into it.

I am a huge fan of small spaces and what can be done with them be they sheds, studio condos, cabins, tree houses and...yes......micro bars. Hence....some of the spaces in ballzak lane really appeal to my sense of aesthetic.
However....I think PSD would agree with me that we felt like two drunken fish out of water flapping around trying to find somewhere comfortable to swim when all we really found were places to wet the fins before needing to flap off again.
Does not take away what the creators of BL (who i know very well and count as good mates) have achieved in that space. It is quite an achievement.

Go and have a look yourself. There are a couple of nice little bars, a few pretentious places and a few which could go either way.Jamie_Lambo wrote:i like hole in the wall bars but... hipsters... noLucky Lucan wrote:There are a few places around there that might fit that description, but I wouldn't say it's filled with anything.

There is a 'trendy' crowd there - and certainly some hipsters, but I don't think it's contagious.

cant see it appealing to me much though
i am at home drinking ABC in a little hovel down KTV street,
but being in a little microbar with a bunch of tryhard hipsters sipping their craft beer would make my skin curl

St 308 is Bassac Lane. Luigi started it off with his Picolo de Luigi pizza joint. Then those Kiwi Muppets got involved by opening up half a dozen 10 square m dives and selling canned beer for 3 bucks fifty.
Ieng Sary's villa was.on 21 down from the Lost Room behind Russian Embassy accommodation block. Been knocked down past few months.
Jamie - you seem like a nice guy. Don't waste your money. It's shit.

I didn't mind it at all. Mind you I spent half the evening amused at ricecakes' attempts to be hip.
