A Somewhat Young China Hand on the Local Drinking Scene

Hockey Night in Beijing!

Tim Hortons coffee… oyster omelets… pancakes with maple syrup… Bloody Caesars (those would be with Clamato, rather than tomato, juice)… and (organ music) Hockey Night in Canada

Canucks, hold onto your zambonis, because it appears Alfa / Café St. Laurent is about to make your dreams come true. I have been talking with Billy K, the brains behind the excellent CSL brunch, and plans are in the works to broadcast Hockey Night in Canada (Saturday night Canuck time, Sunday morning Beijing time) and throw down a breakfast to make those from the Great White North proud. It’ll be a kind of He shoots… he pours (the maple syrup) kind of thing.

Stay tuned for more details. And remember - keep your stick on the ice…

Note: A big shout to p3wong, who pitched this idea last year for ICEhouse (caps added due to hockey-related relevance).
