KT Wine Bar (The STATION) - CHIUSO

The KT wine bar has now closed. Maybe it's because its owner, Tony Munro, has been arrested by the police in Australia. Google his name for details. His boyfriend, who he passed the property to has never maintained it. With Tony's arrest, all the locals and expats now shun the place.

We enjoyed the ambiance of the bar. The ladyboy show was great fun with amazing choreography of the performers. The performing guys were totally hot!! The flow between the performances was steady and easy. The staff were friendly and helpful.

At last, a wine bar with a suitable ambiance that has attracted an appreciative clientele. The space is typically 'shop house' but designed to offer different noise levels, temperatures and - most importantly - separate (non)smoking areas. The wine list has great scope, well stored and served, and the owner knowledgeable, offering suggestions based on palate, not price. The prices are commensurate with the quality. (I'll endure yet another drag show for those specifics alone.) On that topic, I am not a drag-show type, but the show here highlights the male form interspersed with drag numbers, and these boys can bust a move... and, given notice, take genre requests! (I even tipped the eight dancers, something I rarely do.) The space is scrupulously clean, and cleared continuously. The waiters are polite and engaging, without letting service suffer. There are no "rude young queen" staff members here; perhaps a previous commentator had forgotten his glasses and was speaking to a mirror.

Show every Mon, Wed, Fri & Sat. Owner treats staff well as a result you get terrific service and friendliness. I use to go to Linga but the prices went up and so did the music next door. Can't believe David's rating since he only encountered one person and left yet rated everything a 1 star.

Walked in and asked about time of the show. A young girly queen was very rude so I walked out. Your loss Station bar.
