Late Night Out in Wanchai

Met the legendary Expat@Large last night with Spike at Wanchai and had some real fine wine and tapas at Uno Mas, the old Klong down at Lockhart.  Great place serving excellent Spanish food and drinks.  According to Spike, this becomes his new home and he loves it especially when there are seats available out on the balcony.

Had some fine Spanish beer out of a 750ml bottle (forgot the name, will go back and check it out).  The waitress served it out of a champagne ice bucket and we drank it out of these real nifty small cups (reminds me of the Chinese bowls I drank beer out of  down at the food stalls in North Point Market).  Expat@Large actually took a pic of the cups, .

Loving the place and definitely will be back for more.

Underground 74 @ The Melting Pot – 6 December 2008

Been a busy December for the guys over at Underground.  Following last week’s session at Club Cixi, Underground 74 will be at a new venue this Saturday, the Melting Pot, Winly Building, Shop 3, 1-5 Elgin Street, Hollywood Road, Central.

Underground 73 @ Club CIXI – TONIGHT!!!!!

Underground 73

To quote my buddy Spike over at Honkie Town,

“This Friday is Underground’s last event at Club Cixi. For some reason, Cixi won’t be hosting future Underground shows. There will be one or more bar managers attending this event to determine if their bars should host future gigs, so a big turnout on Friday night will help. Starts at 9 PM, $100 ($80 for students – do I have any student readers?) gets you six bands spanning a variety of genres, you can’t beat that with a stick!”

This from Chris B, the organizer,

“Hey everyone!

If you want to be seen by your friends in Europe, please get there by 9:30pm (when first band starts)
as MTV Europe will be filming the first two bands at Underground 73. Lets show that live music IS popular in Hong Kong.

If you’re shy, please come later lol 3rd band starting at 10:45pm

See you there!”
