🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Shanghai Highland Games! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

👑 Did you know Ting Ting, the queen of RIINK, is also also a cocktail superstar?🍸

Head to TaKo — a badass spot where tattoos meet cocktails, and self-expression is always on the menu. 🎨

Think experimental sips like buttery banana bourbon, spicy filthy martinis, and a rice-inspired drink that tastes like nostalgia in a cup. 🍌🔥🍚

💰 All cocktails = RMB79

🍍 Squeeze the day at Bar P.J.! 🍹

🥂 From the mastermind behind Bar O.J. comes a vibrant new hideaway upstairs on Shaanxi Nan Lu—part vintage train car, part disco dream, and alllll the tropical vibes. 🌴✨

Sip on 11 signature cocktails that twist the classics into unexpected, spoonable, slushy, or crystal-clear delights. Think transparent mojitos, creamy piña coladas you eat with a spoon, and a sorbet with a surprise. 🧉🌶️

With a boomerang-shaped bar, pulsing disco lights, and pineapple-print shirts all round—this is the kind of place where fun is the main ingredient. 🪩🍸

Breakfast Until 2pm? Changsha Gets It. 🥢☕️

Stayed out late on Jiefang West Road? No need to choose between sleeping in and breakfast the next morning.

At Maqo Changsha, Lazy Breakfast runs daily from 6.30am all the way to 2pm at E.D.I.T. — a schedule made for a city that knows how to stay up late.

The spread mixes a semi-buffet with unlimited made-to-order dishes: think Eggs Benedict, caramelized French toast and Mexican-style crepes alongside Changsha rice noodles and pan-fried dumplings.

🌙 Changsha after dark. Breakfast when you wake up.

That sounds like a pretty good arrangement to us.
