Wan Chai nightspot Carnegie’s to close
Lockhart Road staple Carnegie’s announced today that is set to close at the end of the month. A popular Wan Chai haunt for more than 25 years, it’s time to say
Apparently nothing
I was wondering if that year was right. I had the impression it had been around way longer than that.
They’re both toilets. At least at Carnegie’s you were allowed to dance on the toilet.
“bated”
You took the bate!

It’s in my nurture.
At Carnegies you needed rubber boots when going for a pee, splatter allover.
One New Year’s Eve, a prostitute approached me in Carnegie’s and asked me to buy her soup.
I thought maybe she was a secret agent using a code word.
Did she wear a prostitute badge?
I usually don’t notice if a woman is chatting me up, so even I figured that was a weird approach.
Maybe she asked if I wanted to be in her soup.
Ahh, but the herd traveled from Wednesday nights at car-nei-gees to Thursday nights at brass monkey, then the weekends at 99 & vibe.
“Dude, i think im in love, i met her last night at Carnegie’s…i didn’t get her number, how will i find her again”
Ooh, watch out @jimipresley , @afterspivak is a master bater!
Cannibals still exist in Taipei !!
a master bater
At Carnegie’s, that usually costs extra.

New investors recognizing the need to get away from the stigma of Carnegie’s reputation.
What did anyone else think the reputation was? When I was young, it had the reputation of being a place where older businessmen went to annoy the waitress, who, I was told, were mostly from less uptight countries. That’s how they were described to me, I didn’t have an opinion, but I’ve also never seen a Taiwanese waitress dance with a balding man at his table. I’ve been twice, I think. I was too young for the old guy vibe. When I was old, I drank alone. I ordered UberEats from there twice in the past two years because it’s near work. Very average.
TBH I never could pronounce Carnegie’s.
Car-NEE-Gees (with a hard ‘G’).
I think I went once during one of my Taipei trips. It vaguely annoyed me because being from New York, I would associate it with Carnegie’s Deli, the tourist trap that makes overpriced pastrami sandwiches for out-of-towners that couldn’t find Katz’s.
And it wasn’t that.

Why soup? Was she missing teeth?
Bars are not the place to meet relationship girls of course
My neighborhood has GUS which is kind of a smaller version of WholeFood and seems a lot of young ladies shop there
Great place for those looking to snag a young western girl (mostly western clientele due to food selections )
One of the young ladies at the counter today was absolutely gorgeous as was one of the customers
92 points out of 100 only because like wine nobody rates higher than 92 or 93
