Emerging from hibernation


Everybody's favourite hutong cocktail bar MaoMaoChong is finally set to open its doors again this evening, after a long closedown over the winter. It has been much missed for the past four months.

Also waking up for the spring is Great Leap Brewing, which is greeting the new season by holding a Chilli Cook-Off event from 4pm on Saturday. [A "source close to the owners" suggests to me that they're not yet ready to re-open fully, and will just be doing one-off events like this. I don't know if this is because they can't be bothered to run the place as a regular bar, or because they're getting enough private bookings that they don't need to, or if they're still having licensing difficulties. I must investigate further tomorrow.]

So, that's the next two evenings taken care of. And I'm sure there's something on Sunday too...
