proprietor of Suzie Wong. Just be a bit advertent, many
familiar faces of Suzie Wong style will still be found
out here in the bar that combines both openness and
closeness...creating a kind of peaceful atmosphere without
the feeling of decadence as brought about by the Qing
Dynasty opium and giving way for true happiness to bloom
in the night with the glimmerings and wonderful rhythm.
All this is the wonderland that Inner Affair builds
to cater to its God-like customers. Address: 1F, Qiankun
Plaza, 6# Sanlitun Xi Liu Jie, Chaoyang District. Tel:

 The
owners of VICS and The Den have joined forces to open

and traditional decor with rich blue and yellow drapes.
The second floor is comprised of a series of uniquely
designed private dining rooms, each seating approximately
eight to ten diners. Specialising in "special dishes"
that are a visual match for the decor, Wu Dai have chosen
China's South regions as their inspiration. Perfect
for those liking variety, Wu Dai offers dishes ranging
from sweet Shanghai to spicy Sichuan. Add: South Gate

 I
thought Vics was just having a new paint-job. Instead
I found that they have not just completely stripped
the joint, but have also taken over half of Outback
Steakhouse as well!. Entering through a doorway that
looks like it came out of '2001: A Space Odyssey', the
first thing that hits you is the fact there are not
only two floors but also two flights of stairs. The
first of these is the 'Relaxation Zone' where minimalist
furmiture and trance music are combined; downstairs
is the old 'Vics Zone' with hip hop and R'n'B tunes
booming out of the new sound system. Add: North Gate
of Worker's Stadium, TEL: (8610) 6593 6215
CLUBLOOK

the line sound system, largest hip-hop bar. Every week

Firstar was formally opened on
October 11, 2003. It is one of the few super-large
catering spots in Beijing with an elaborate outdoor
view. The canteen mainly specializes in French cuisine,
but its food also bears slight eastern characteristics.
It is a premium destination for those who are keen on
delicate western food. Address: No.18, Xiaoyun Road,
Chaoyang District, Beijing. Tel: (8610) 6464 9970 /
