ChTTay Posted July 2, 2014 at 12:22 PM Author Report Posted July 2, 2014 at 12:22 PM Looks good... Would look better in Gulou :-) What about Chinese food then? If not western... Quote
icebear Posted July 4, 2014 at 02:11 AM Report Posted July 4, 2014 at 02:11 AM I'm similarly in to the extent that I can plan ahead - that is, I'll join if I can, but probably can't confirm until a day ahead. As mentioned elsewhere, a good strategy for this is to simply choose and time/place you'd like to grab food and suggest everyone else show up Quote
tysond Posted July 4, 2014 at 03:47 AM Report Posted July 4, 2014 at 03:47 AM I think I can make it! I have no problem with a burger or Chinese food. Quote
zhouhaochen Posted July 4, 2014 at 06:52 AM Report Posted July 4, 2014 at 06:52 AM ChTTay as you are the original iniator, you get to pick the place and time. Sounds like the date has been fixed, for the restaurant, I prefer Sanlitun and probably some other ppl do as well. But I am also happy to cylce to gulou. So you make the call! Quote
ChTTay Posted July 4, 2014 at 11:09 AM Author Report Posted July 4, 2014 at 11:09 AM Fine. Saturday June 12th. 8'oclock. 4 corners in Gulou. Map and info: http://www.timeoutbeijing.com/venue/Bars__Clubs-Bars__Clubs/14673/4-Corners.html They do Vietnamese food mostly but their burger is fantastic. Prices start around 45 kuai upto about 90. They have Jing A and Verdett on tap. Have bottled beer and the usual wine/spirits. They had landlord issues a while ago and almost closed so they redeveloped the whole place. When I last went they didn't have a full menu but still had decent choices. If thats full or everyone hates it we can get a swift one in and move to a Chinese place opposite it (kind of) that is fairly decent. They are known for their noodles (Hui mian?) but ive had dishes there and they gave me no cause to complain. If you can't come then post. If none of you come i'll enjoy a beer and a bite to eat then send Roddy the bill for a fantastic Chinese-Forums meet up. 3 Quote

Demonic_Duck Posted July 5, 2014 at 07:33 AM Report Posted July 5, 2014 at 07:33 AM Sounds good to me! How 'bout setting up a 微信 group? Quote
ChTTay Posted July 5, 2014 at 10:32 AM Author Report Posted July 5, 2014 at 10:32 AM Can i do that anonymously? I dont want to put my I.D publicly on this forum. Quote

Demonic_Duck Posted July 5, 2014 at 11:42 AM Report Posted July 5, 2014 at 11:42 AM Yeah that's more what I was thinking of, I wouldn't suggest anyone share their personal information in this thread. Quote

Popular Post zhouhaochen Posted July 15, 2014 at 10:52 AM Popular Post Report Posted July 15, 2014 at 10:52 AM was good fun, two locations visited, plenty of beers drunk (except one person who kept ordering the tiniest cocktails), a lot of Chinese discussed and talk of a repeat. 8 Quote
