Beijing Boyce XII: Opening Shots
This issue covers 30 drinking holes in Shanghai and is twice as long as usual, so I will save until next time my Beijing content, including reports on Capital Club, Durty Nellie’s, 5:19, Modern Nomads (Mongolian vodka martinis, just across from Banana Leaf), Browns (which broke the Zing by Doodoo record for most mafang-to-get drink: 20 minutes, including four trips to the bar, and that was with the help of the supervisor, manager AND owner), a John Bull Pub wine tasting, the inaugural Agent Red Wolf Long Island Iced Tea and Mojito Awards, the future of bartending experts George and Echo, who quit at Midnight a few hours ago, so you might want to skip that place for cocktails (more on this, including a cheesy headline such as “Sundown at Midnight,” coming up), and any other spots I visit over the next ten days. I’ll also respond to those readers who will no doubt claim I have completely misrepresented Shanghai’s pub scene.
