A Somewhat Young China Hand on the Local Drinking Scene

Sips and bites: Tribute North, Enoteca, Tao, and more

Enoteca wine bar officially opened in The Place last Wednesday with a free outpouring of vino and appetizers both inside and on the rooftop. A good event overall, save for a temporary glass shortage and some dodgy Merlot.

Restaurant Tribute North opened last Friday, close to Sichuan hot spot Chuan Ban (more on the place here).

Look for TAO restaurant on Lucky Street to unveil a new look October 23 and to hold a free cocktail party October 29 (the place asks attendees to RSVP before October 24 at 5867-0209 or taocuisine@gmail.com).

Word has it that a horde of Maggie’s mourners has been encamping in the Pig and Whistle.

True Run Media, publishers of The Beijinger, held its seventh anniversary party at The Village yesterday, with eats from All Star Sports Bar & Grill, Blue Frog, Cold Stone Creamery, Union Bar & Grille, Peppes Pizza, Panino Teca, and RAS Ethiopian Cuisine, with drinks including Stella Artois, Chill, and Montrose wine. Panino Teca takes top spot for generous portions.

The Pomegranate continues to mark its third year with an extra-special 5-7 PM happy hour on Fridays all month: the first keg of beer is free and then it is two-for-one drinks (save for Beamish, Kilkenny, and premium wine). Other specials include RMB30 Jagermeister, Irish coffee, and Abbot Ale.
