    Reopend under a new name

    Don't remember what they call it, something on S. (It was late and I was drunk, jeje).

    They have redone the whole place and it actually does not look bad, like a diner with a big bar, windows to the street and the waitresses have some uniform and look like they work at burgerking now.

    It is the same crew that work there, and the same (Greek) owner.

    You should pay max 200 p to enter and get 2 drinks for it.

    Stranger.

    Local forum

    On one of the local forums some guy posted that he saw a Yankee take a girl out for U$S 500 bucks. Talk about a place being named appropriately.

    From the Urban Dictionary.

    malaka

    Greek term for someone who has jerked off so many times that his brain has become soft, and he is now an idiot.

How much you pay seems to depend on how busy the club is, how well they know your face, what time of the night it is, whether it's a full moon etc etc. The entry fee seemed to stabilise at 150 pesos for two drinks, but the chica drinks varied from 350,250 down to 200 (less on each visit). Not that I'm bothered about discounts based on repeat custom. I once used to hang out in a bar in Barcelona where the individual drink prices used to rise or fall in real time depending on the sales volumes – but the difference was that you could see the prices on a screen before you bought. In Malaka, I was warned that the chica drink prices can go as high as 600 when the place is full. Mongers beware. There were actually some hot girls on one or two of the nights I visited, after 4 am. 1000 pesos would get any of them and less if they were willing to bargain. But all in all, I can't say that I liked this club (Sodoma next door is a better place).
    I stopped here my last visit since it was very close to my apt. I did not like it. Reminded me of Tijuana when I was in the Marine Corps.
