A Somewhat Young China Hand on the Local Drinking Scene

Phelan, Phlaming Lamborghinis, and Phreedom

He’s moved around more times than a bottle of baijiou at a Chinese birthday party,  than the rotating door at Centro, than a beer pong ball at The Rickshaw. Meet Glenn Phelan, who’s held management spots over the past two years at The Pavillion, Browns and most recently Frank’s Place. He also once (nearly) turned yours truly into a human Flaming Lamborghini.

I ran into him last night at the that’s Beijing bars and clubs awards, at The Bank, and learned that he has his own place in the works. It’ll be an Irish Pub, it’ll be North Sanlitun (think A-Che and Dine & Wine area), it’ll aim to open in September and it’ll give him some freedom to create his own kind of place. Let’s just hope he includes a few nice Irish Whiskies on the menu.
