New in Tongli: Hercules Gourmet Sandwich Manufacturing opens in White Rabbit space
Six weeks ago one of the guys taking over the former White Rabbit space in Tongli Studio asked to meet so he could explain his plans to transform it into a ‘loft apartment’ called Jaison’s. Now that space will officially open tomorrow as Hercules Gourmet Sandwich Manufacturing. What happened? I don’t know but here are my first two thoughts. 1) If you ask someone to write about your project (which I did in late July) but don’t provide updates when the plans change, you might want to rethink your PR strategy; 2) Given the name, I’m sure some readers will wonder if this place has links to Gung Ho Gourmet Pizza Factory. It doesn’t.
Anyway, as the name indicates, this place is focused on sandwiches and includes a two-for-one deal on Tuesdays. It also has two-for-one drinks daily from 4 PM to 8 PM and will kick off with staggered pricing, much like Bananafish and Bambu in the same building (there are links between all three of these venues). It’s 50 percent off this weekend, 30 percent off during the first week, and so on. Operating hours are 11 AM to late. See the posters for more details.
“i”-Lounge: Jaison’s in Sanlitun
Looks like Jason’s is opening in Tongli Studio just in time for Halloween. Oops, wrong Jason*, although Tongli Studio does have a bit of a horror story angle as a chunk of its facade fell into the street last week and the building is crisscrossed with scaffolding.
Anyway, it looks like the place that is opening is called Jaison’s, with an “i”, in the space that formerly housed White Rabbit and before that Club China Doll and before that China Doll. Tonight, I found the lights on, walked in for literally a minute, and found a small party–with snacks and all–going on. If I get any info on the place, I will post it here.
* Though it would be a good theme for Halloween.
