Anybody else like to join? @ChTTay ? @zhouhaochen ? 1 Quote
DavyJonesLocker Posted May 16, 2019 at 01:10 AM Report Posted May 16, 2019 at 01:10 AM Potentially yes. Planning to go to UK soonish but nothing decided as of yet. Location cool for me. 2 Quote
ChTTay Posted May 16, 2019 at 12:45 PM Report Posted May 16, 2019 at 12:45 PM For beers .... Go to Jing A / 京A. It’s near the Chun Xiu Lu. Kind of between Sanlitun and Dongzhimen. They have decent food as well. Otherwise in SLT itself there is Slowboat but the service has always been horrific when I’ve been. Apart from brewpubs (such as the above) in SLT proper you could check out The Local. Weeknights are tough for me because i live quite far out. 1 Quote
mungouk Posted May 17, 2019 at 08:47 AM Report Posted May 17, 2019 at 08:47 AM Thanks for the recommendation @ChTTay ... is this location on Google maps correct? If so it's only a stone's throw from the GLB that closed down. Wish I'd known! Quote
ChTTay Posted May 17, 2019 at 08:53 AM Report Posted May 17, 2019 at 08:53 AM Yeah that’s a better reference point. Just near the old GLB JingA also have really nice t-shirts and hoodies if you’re looking for gifts that aren’t tourist crap. 1 Quote
mungouk Posted May 23, 2019 at 04:28 PM Report Posted May 23, 2019 at 04:28 PM Great call @ChTTay, thanks! 2 1 Quote
Bibu Posted May 24, 2019 at 02:09 AM Report Posted May 24, 2019 at 02:09 AM so many years not linger around in Sanlitun. Anyone had experienced the curfew toward Sanlitun in a cold winter? Hope you guys would insist on this meet up , so I might have the chance to join in several years later.cheers! Quote
Flickserve Posted May 24, 2019 at 02:49 AM Author Report Posted May 24, 2019 at 02:49 AM Nice 北京烤鴨 around the corner at 京尊！so convenient!!! Quote
DavyJonesLocker Posted May 24, 2019 at 02:53 AM Report Posted May 24, 2019 at 02:53 AM How did the meetup go chaps? Quote
mungouk Posted May 24, 2019 at 06:59 AM Report Posted May 24, 2019 at 06:59 AM Great — a bit like a Chinese-forums X HelloTalk mash-up meet-up And my first ever time eating 北京烤鴨... thanks @Flickserve for bringing your friends along. Quote
ChTTay Posted May 24, 2019 at 09:28 AM Report Posted May 24, 2019 at 09:28 AM Sorry I missed it! Gratitude for JingA recommendation can be shown by JingA pint. 1 Quote
mungouk Posted June 7, 2019 at 11:43 AM Report Posted June 7, 2019 at 11:43 AM Sitting in 京A right now... it’s my new local! I found an apartment 5 minutes walk away in Dongzhimen and will be moving in on Monday. Hurrah! Happy Dragon Boat Festival! 1 Quote
DavyJonesLocker Posted June 7, 2019 at 03:02 PM Report Posted June 7, 2019 at 03:02 PM Never been in JingA . I should have taken the advantage of if when I lived in the center. I live way too far out now to go to sanlitun Quote
mungouk Posted June 7, 2019 at 03:15 PM Report Posted June 7, 2019 at 03:15 PM Never say never, @DavyJonesLocker — just start drinking early enough to be able to get a Didi home ? 1 Quote
ChTTay Posted June 9, 2019 at 03:59 AM Report Posted June 9, 2019 at 03:59 AM JingA isn’t really Sanlitun. Just off Chun Xiu Lu, round the corner from that holiday inn. Let’s try for another meet up after summer perhaps? This one with hopefully 2+ attendees. Think the last one we managed 4! 1 Quote
