    Drop In: Cool little local bar, but missing something....

    I found about this place when I went for a walk as I live somewhat near it. I also looked it up and saw it was on Nanfang so I figure I give it a try on a Monday night when the wifey was out and I didn't feel like cooking. The place is pretty cool inside, and I've seen mostly Chinese but a couple of laowai as well sitting up at the bar. They only have two beers on tap, Tiger and Hoegardeen, so I ordered a pint of Hoe. Bartender is a nice guy, beer is good and cold, place feels like a local pub, which all I like. I ordered the burger and it was not good at all. The bread and sauces/toppings they put in it are good, but the meat is pretty bad. It didn't even taste like beef. I've heard good things about their burgers, so maybe they changed up ingredients since the Nanfang reviewed them last. I'd be back, but mainly for a couple beers. I might try their tex mex but I wouldn't get too excited if your going there to eat......Cheers...

    Good Food, Good People - The Terrace, Shenzhen

    Two things: - I haven't eaten there since I moved to Hong Kong, but the red curry was amazing a few years back. Some of the best in Shenzhen. - Second, I lost my iPad there recently. I thought it was stolen, but they fiddled with it until they cracked my lock screen, to get on Skype to contact my friends to day they had it. Good people. I would never expect that from any bar or restaurant that I wasn't a regular at.

    Excellent Fresh Imported Food - Edge Restaurant & Bar

    Great restaurant and the only place I really enjoy seafood in Guangzhou. Most things on the menu are imported and cooked very well. Its somewhat pricey but still competitive compared to Shanghai restaurants. Service it a little slow at times but hey its China. Great Dead Guy Ale on tap. Try it, you'll love it. I had the brased short ribs and they we're awesome. Wife had fish which was great. We shared mussels for starters and they were awesome. I would give it 5 stars but the English of the waitstaff is not very good and they don't seem to be managed well. Food makes up for it though....Enjoy!

    La Casa: Solid

    I go to La Casa once a week for dinner and drinks with friends. Dave and his staff know what I like and treat me like a regular. The food is good and never disappoints. I usually go with a salad and a pizza which is more than enough. The beers are always cold and range between 20 and 30 RMB. The main issue here is the surroundings. Club Viva is too loud and drowns out any music being played in the bar. Aside from that it is a laid back hang out that is never too crowded. Gotta love the Open Mic night on Sundays.
