Welcome to Basel, I know a couple of Californians in Basel

Expect Swiss music to be 2yrs behind the UK/US. Anyway that's why I returned with 5gb of MP3 dance music yesterday from England

Try Das Schiff, Kuppel, Kaserne, Cargo Bar, Bar Rouge, Red Rocks, Paddy O'Reillys, Club 59...

There's an underground club near Voltaplatz I have heard rumours about, otherwise join this facebook group..

List is huge, depends on what you want to do, what sort of music and how much you're willing to pay on the door for entry.

Admittedly Basel isn't the easiest of places to dig this stuff out but it does exist!

Here's 40 bars/clubs to start you off..

Yet another facebook English speaking drinks group..

http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=12689230055

Mostly from Southeast Asia. Rambutan is a lot like lychee, except with a rad looking outfit.

I didn't grow up in Hawaii, but you reminded me how badly I miss it. My bro lives in Maui.

Here's one of my favorite "hawaiian" songs (from Jack J). I listen to it on the trains here. If the Swiss authorities only knew, they might arrest me for thought crime.

WOW that should keep me busy for a while ! Thanks for the info. The next time I want to pay the rent on some cover charge and drinks I'll check out the list again.

Went to Bar Rouge , great view. and pondered upon the sports bar the other day, its just like the sports bars in LA and even heard some english people talking.

I am nicely surprised that many of the Basel residents DO speak alittle english.

day by day .....

Love Jack!! Now you make me miss it.

What about the musubi do they even sell the mytery stuff here ...cause i love my Musubi

I've seen "the stuff" in Lörrach. That's right across the border from you in Germany. Nori seaweed can be found in the most grocery stores. Globus has good sushi rice, but overpriced. The asian stores have calrose rice. I don't know what the sauce is made of.

I hope we see the sun today. It's suppose to be partly sunny with rain:

yeah , I found a Asian grocery store in Basel YIPPI ! I will be cookin up some grub and

many thanks for the info.

I eat NORI rather than chips yum yum.

And i will be running out for the Sun today even to walk in the park! Sun is good!

where is Lorrach?

Sun? Where?

Lörrach is a town in Germany, bordering on Riehen

So is your boyfriend Swiss? My wife is Swiss. I'll PM you next time we go to Basel. Let's see if we can hang. And vice versa. You're welcome to PM me if you get stuck.

Guaranteed places to find English speaking ex-pats (Although I really do my best to avoid these places now )

Paddies, Pickwicks, Red Rocks

Acqua is nice nr to Kuppel, nice bar and also you hear a fair bit of english flying around in the there, can be a nightmare to get served though.

SPAM with sushi rice? Really, guys? Now there's two things I never thought would meet. Have to try that...

Oh, if you only knew. It is awesome. But best eaten near a beach, warm rays and the smell of cocoa butter suntan oil. It's a local thing.

That would be great. And yes he is Swiss from the Italian speaking part . Ticino (LUgano)

I am just getting familiar with the whole threads and PM so be patient. But would love to meet sometime.

ALoha,

SHer

Don't forget to dip it into a little sesame oil and soy then pan fry with alittle green onion ,

stick it on some rice (asian rice and wrap it up in the seaweed! You'll think diff. about it!!

expand your palette ! haha

Sherry, you foxy Diva!

Nice crossing paths with you. I'm certain I have met you somewhere before. I'm sure we only have 1 degree of separation between us. But crossing through so many alternate realities, in altered states of mind , memories tend to blur. But your stunning look is unforgettable.

I hope your transition works out smoothly and fully. Ping me when you want to chat. We angels have an open door policy. I'll be in Basel again next Tuesday. I'll SMS you if you are around.

By the way, Phos (foce) means "Light, fire or halo" in greek. It's the root word of fosforos, which means "matches" in Spanish. If you ever want to light up the town, I'd join your entourage.

-Phos(foros)

THanks for the sweet compliments! Yes lets hope the transition goes smoothly.

We should difintely paint the town HAwaiian style sometime let me know and yes feel free to sms me when your here on Tues. I had a nice conversation with you as well.

whats ping??? is this I T slang? haha

Looking forward to also going to aBBQ lets have a great summer!!!!

Sutter is planning an Event in St. Gallen. But I'll be travelling around that time. Sutter is VERY cool.

Otherwise, we can do one California style.... spontaneously!

Sounds like a plan!
