The place is close, Nanjing Lu, the coffee is getting more expensive every time (regular Yunnan brew from 12 Rmb to 16 Rmb) but the terrace makes up for that.
There’s just one thing that keeps amazing me, and this is based on 4 years of research.
Every time I go to the bathroom it’s […]

Wandering on Weihai Lu we ran into the neon lights of Neo Cafe.

Drinks
We only had some drinks. Prices are good actually. A Corona for 25 Rmb and a small Tsingtao for the same money. A strawberry slushy was 32 Rmb.
Service
Average. The waitress apparently wasn’t overjoyed with my request for some ice water which she […]

Chances are you have never walked past the lovely Citizen Cafe as it’s tucked away in a small side street of Shanxi Lu, just before Changle Lu.
Neither did I but as I read about it in one of the local expat magazines it seemed like a nice place to try.
Food
I have been there […]

A great curry with tender pieces […]

Brunching is one of my favorite activities on late Sunday morning. Last time we tried a Spanish brunch at Indalo, now we went to more of a Fusion brunch at Maneo’s on Tongren Lu.

A couple of years ago already I went to Pasti on their old location. This spot is now occupied by Napoli while Pasti moved to a old villa only footsteps away. A lot more space and the food even better. I have been a couple of times now and even ordered in using their […]

I was cleaning up old magazines and ran into an issue of SH Magazine. On the last page of each issue there is small column called, “How to”.
Sometimes this column is slightly useful, many times it’s cynical. The one I read was funny for the last reason.
How to .. Open a restaurant in […]

It was Sunday and we were in the mood for some brunch. Instead of going to one of the hotel buffets that can be quite good value for money, we wanted something else. Flipping through the free expat magazines I noticed Indalo. A Spanish brunch that starts at 14:00 ‘o clock. It fitted perfectly […]

On a recent Saturday night I spent my first evening at Cotton’s.
It must have something to do with the fact that I’m not single that I’m still pretty much a Shanghai nightlife virgin or maybe I’m just old.
I enjoyed myself so much, thanks to the many Gin Tonics, that we decided to […]
