7 Top Things To Do This Week
Well, it's another one of those strange, long holiday weeks (FYI). Saturday is considered a work day, followed by three days off. There's plenty going on throughout the week and tons of music festivals this weekend (see related articles for more on those). Here's what you can expect:
MONDAY
BOGO Burgers and more @ The Rooster
When: Every Monday
Where: The Rooster
Address: 455 Shaanxi Bei lu
If you don’t know what to do on Mondays, here’s a solid suggestion: go to The Rooster with a friend, get two burgers (or fried chicken sandwiches), and only pay the price of one! They’ve also got drink specials and plenty of other good menu items to enjoy.
TUESDAY
3 RMB Wing Deal @ Boxing Cat
When: Every Tuesday
Where: Boxing Cat
Address: 82 Fuxing Xi Lu, Sinan Mansions, Unit 26A, 519 Fuxing Zhong Lu
How on earth is this not the most popular evening deal night in the city? Every Tuesday you can get wings for RMB 3 a pop at Boxing Cat.
WEDNESDAY
Highball Wednesdays @ Xime
When: Every Wednesday
Where: Xime
Address: 1/F, 989 Changle Lu
There are already plenty of reasons to visit Xime for a meal or a drink (or both). Our personal favorite is their Highball Wednesdays, with Suntory whiskey highballs 50% off, from 5-10pm. Have a look at their flyer to see some of their other killer deals throughout the week.
THURSDAY
Joe's Pizza Pop Up @ el Ocho
When: Thursday, April 26th, 8pm until late
Where: el Ocho
Address: Zhangyuan 99, 3/F, 99 Taixing Lu
If you like pizza and awesome cocktails you can get the best of both at el Ocho this Thursday. Joe's Pizza will be hosting a pop-up event with pepperoni pizza and a 'special pie' made just for this event.
FRIDAY
Fuckin' Metal Night @ Specters
Price: FREE
When: Friday, April 27th, 9pm
Where: Specters
Address: 1485 Beijing Xi Lu
We'd love to give you a nuanced explanation of what this event will be, but the flyer pretty much speaks for itself.
8Er$ (Mad Decent) @ Arkham
Price: RMB 120 (door)
When: Friday, April 27th, 10pm
Where: Arkham
Address: B1/F, 168 Julu Lu
Another huge night at Arkham this Friday, where you can catch 8Er$ (a.k.a. Mad Decent) put on a live performance that's sure to shake the walls.
