a447, some info for you just in case you didn't know:

Are there any gay bars or parties in Myanmar?

There’s a monthly gay party called FAB hosted by Gay Yangon Events (YG)which is great fun.

The FAB Facebook page will give more info about their next party. It attracts a mixed crowd of both locals and foreigners.

There is also a club called the Ninth Floor, which attracts mainly young locals and curious flamboyant gentlemen like yourselves! Hahaha. It’s known locally as “JJ Disco” and any taxi driver will know it. It’s located in the Mingal Zei group of buildings, north of the old British colonial area and close to Kandawgyi Lake.

More recently a new gay friendly bar and restaurant opened up in the expat area of Yangon called O’Thentic. It’s a French creperie and wine bar at the corner. Tuesday is the most popular night here with the gay community. You can find it at the corner of Yaw Min Gyi and Bo Var Niung Streets.

Have you not tried the others like Grindr, Hornet, Jack'd or Blued?

I would be guessing Grindr is the most popular App?

Also, ask the local gay guys where you can find all the action! Wink wink!

Romeo was out-performing hornet in Pattaya two months ago. It has been rejuvenated in the past year.

So, here it is. It was very quiet - only 1 garrulous woman talking at a waiter. A couple of local guys came in later. The staff seems all gay and very friendly.

I had a mojito and a ham and emmental galette. Aroi maak maak!
