So I walk into this bar in Chongqing (no really), and it is full on steampunk inspired in its design. Full of iron and gauges, with deep red curtains, and wrought iron lamps hanging from the ceiling. By the main stage there was this weird wheel-and-cog contraption which I think was for show, or it may even have been generating the power- who can say. I said to myself "man my mate Visionary would love this". Actually I think I said it out loud. There were even real-live mobsters and their pretty molls on the mezzanine level. I actually felt like I was in a computer game. It turns out the bar, called Soho, was part of a chain and there was another in Chengdu exactly the same, and then another in Changsha, and another in Wuhan. Too funny, and it was pumping in all of them. PS: I aim to catch up on the stories below this weekend. | |
