Celebrity Pub Crawl II: We have a winner!
For Celebrity Pub Crawl II, readers were asked to recommend their Beijing bar picks for Desperate Housewives. The name of everyone with a legitimate bar pick was written on a card and entered in a draw. Shan Lee, marketing director of Neo Fine Foods, which imports wine and food from Australia, picked the winner (note: Neo will soon launch its new site – www.beijingfanz.com). The winner gets:
- A bottle of Grace Vineyard Tasya’s Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon from Torres
- A package of four books – Insider’s Guide to Beijing 2008, Mandarin Phrasebook, Healthy Chinese Cuisine: A Restaurant Ordering Guide, and Spicy Chinese Cuisine: A Restaurant Ordering Guide – from Immersion Guides.
And the winner is: Elisabeth T.
Congratulations to Elisabeth and thanks to everyone who participated. Celebrity Pub Crawl III starts tomorrow.
No commentsMaggies: New digs ready to open
Ranking among the city’s more famous / infamous establishments, Maggies began renovations and an expansion last last year that left only its back end open. According to several Maggies employees, the bar will fully open by Thursday at the latest. Throughout the changes, Maggie’s has continued to crank out its popular hot dogs near the entrance. (It’s the mustard – fried shallot combination that makes them good.)
