Night Life - list of places I've been to

Clubs

Luxy - Wed ladies night is free, weekends are 500 NT ($15US) before 11pm and $900 ($27US) after and you get one free drink ticket. Its a big club with 2 stories and 3 dance floors. Pretty hot right now in Taipei.

Room 18 - Wed ladies night is free, weekends are 600NT ($20) and you get two free drink ticket. Its definitely smaller than Luxy. It has two rooms, one for hip hop and one for techno. It's the club where famous asian people go :)

MOS - still haven't been there, but its 30 minutes by taxi. I heard its HUGE and is the best club out there so far.

PLUSH - a very pretty place though I hear it just got remodeled (changed owners). The prices are still expensive like Luxy. Weekends are 700NT for girls and guys. But its definitely a place everyone goes to.

Bars (which are kinda clubs in themselves)

Lava - Wed. I don't know what they do, but Thursday is all you can drink night... ladies are 300 and guys are 600. Its right across from Room 18. A lot of international people like to go there so thats always fun. The drinks are definitely cooler than VS (vacuum space)!!!



These are midori sours and peach sours... and when they say sour... be prepared to pucker!

Lounges/Bars/Club type

Brown Sugar - its this very hip jazz club thats close to Room 18 and Lava. The atmosphere rocks because they actually brink in real jazz bands and singers from the US or wherever. Make reservations or get there early to get a table. Its a restaurant too so you can eat and drink. I recommend the Sangria.

MINT - this is probably the most expensive and most famous spotting club right now. Its at the base of Taipei 101. Weekends its $700 for ladies ($23) and $1000 for guys ($30US). Here you don't have to worry about getting a bad drink because they're ALL good. Its also the place to spot supermodels... not just asian ones, but european ones too. They definitely care about what you are wearing, so as the US says "dress to impress"... and here they smoke cigars and not cigarettes, so that tells you the level of this place.

TU (Taipei Underground) - this place is another all you can drink place... prices are the same (girls cheap guys not). Ladies night is on Thursdays and its 100 for girls and 500 or 600NT for the guys. This place is kind of small but bigger than VS. It's located right past the Da An stop, so you can take the MRT for 1 stop if you want to.

Cheers Ni Ni - its a bar located near Carnegie's (another bar) which is close to the FarEast Hotel. It's also walking distance from Tai Da. There's no cover and its decorated very modern or 70's cool with a lot of funky comfy furniture. The dj is good and it has a great environment.

Brass Monkey - its located near the 2nd to last stop on the brown line. It's around a lot of companies and cool restaurants. This area in general is full of "foreigners" so brass monkey by default has a lot of white people. Ladies night is Thursday and girls are free, drinks are not.

There were more, but that'll come later
