About BJ Foodies Group:

Organizing monthly group meals at about RMB 100/head with food/drinks included, this group of dedicated foodies is all about “satiating their inner-foodie appetites for good quality food, conversation & fine wining/sake-ing/cocktailing/beering while indulging for a cause.”

BJ FOODIES PURPOSE:
1. Just to eat a nice meal & catch up with real people & friends outside the clubbing-disease we all suffer from called Vics/Mix.

LumDimSummary: Playboy Party @ ROOMbeijing

Superstar Guest DJ Dimitri from Paris

Lots of Bunnies

= A Packed House With Way Too Many Sweaty People

*Note to self: Come earlier to check out ROOMbeijing‘s dinner –> party transition.

ROOMbeijing definitely felt more like a lounge/club than a restaurant/lounge.

See for yourself.

Make Room for ROOMbeijing

Brian McKenna‘s new restaurant, bar and lounge, ROOMbeijing opens its doors with a soft opening starting at 11AM on Monday, April 26.

With Brian McKenna‘s name attached, I figured it would be safe to assume high-profile, international cuisine complemented by glitzy drinks, house music, and contemporary art.

But instead they are marketing themselves as:

“The place to go if you want a casual snack and a drink, a private dinner with colleagues or the family, a relaxed first date – it’s whatever you want it to be. There are no dress codes and no assumptions of how you should dine. Just expect great value for money, flexible service and a place to be yourself.  Average spend per person: RMB 100-150 (lunch); RMB 200-300 (dinner).” – ROOMbeijing

Expect the unexpected.
