Tiny town. Big pours. Infinite stories.

Looper by Ounce is back—with a whisky bar built around a miniature city of 500 residents. Think sunbathers, stamp collectors, and cable cars… all circling a capsule world of Scotch, barrel-aged cocktails, and boozy desserts.

From the Rio Grande twist to the Truffle Chocolate martini, every drink loops through time and taste. Come for the train set, stay for the flavor.

✨No hello. Just YELLO(w).✨

Shanghai’s new avant-garde hideout feels like a stage set—velvet curtains, secret rooms, and a cocktail list coded like a riddle.

Sip:

🍸 Apple-wood smoked martini

🌿 Sage-heavy negroni

🍬 Herbal fizz with a neon candy stick

Doodle on the bar top, disappear behind a black curtain, and toast to everything you can’t live (w)ithout.

Penicillin just made bar bites… weirdly wonderful.

🦴 Fishbone biscuits made of scallop & crab roe powder

🦀 King crab donuts popping with roe and popping candy

🍣 Smoked salmon cannoli shaped like ci**rs

🥩 Beef French Toast — a hangover cure disguised as indulgence

Wash it down with fermented inventions like Apple Pulp Cider or Chicken Coffee Wine, and you’ll see: at Penicillin, the future of bar food is already here.

Come curious. Leave fascinated.

⚡️ Expect fan-fave anthems, surprise guests & full-throttle energy.

Mignon 9 | French Fusion Bistro

Leafy Wuyuan Lu has its share of charm, but step inside Mignon 9 and you’ll find something rare: the quite aroma of charcoal, the glow of an open kitchen, and food cooked with balance and heart.

✨ Brunch:

– Crab Omelet, folded around sweet snow crab on mashed potato

– Spicy Beef Benedict with chili Hollandaise and yuzu rocket

– The unapologetically messy M9 Dirty Burger, lounging in onion jus

🌙 Dinner:

– Razor Clams in garlic butter with crisp rice cake

– Charcoal Grilled Halibut in herb broth

– Pig Tomahawk with maiden fruit sweetness

– Sea Urchin Pot Rice — uni, pork belly, salmon roe

Each plate is guided by Chef Tianmu’s quiet precision — subtle, layered, and deeply satisfying.

📍 Mignon 9, No.71 Wuyuan Lu, near Wulumuqi Lu

🎟️ RMB100 vouchers now RMB80 — limited time.
