How about an early dinner on May 16th Friday?
I'm pretty sure I'll be in the US then, but you never know.
For those that are here most of the time, just give me a head's up in advance of your weekends and I'll provide a crowd.
Our latest hang-out is Pipe Pub (gongti nan lu), a lesbian (I am not one) joint that delves out y5 beers.
I'm also down for that Houhai/Nanlouguxiang scene.
In any event, I'm planning on not being here between the end of this month and May 20. So, the next ten days are cool, as are those towards the end of May (assuming I swing a visa).
