What's included

  • Include: 1 Glass of Local Craft Beer. 1 Personalized TCM "Prescription" Cocktail. 1 Farewell Shot.

What to expect

• Stop 1: The Icebreaker (20:00 - 21:00): We kick off with a renowned TCM-themed bar. Here, a licensed practitioner will read your pulse (the "Wang, Wen, Wen, Qie" method) to analyze your constitution. You’ll receive a handwritten "prescription" which the mixologist will use to craft a bespoke cocktail using herbs like ginseng, goji berries, or hawthorn.
• Stop 2: The Prescription (21:05 - 21:45): We head to a fresh local craft beer. Your host will share the evolution of Chinese drinking culture—from ancient rice wine to the modern craft revolution—while teaching you the basic "finger-guessing" games to get the energy flowing.
• Stop 3: The Dice Showdown (21:50 - 23:00): We’ll finish at a lively hidden haunt to master "Liar’s Dice," the king of Chinese bar games. We’ll toast to new friendships with a signature Chinese-infused shot before leaving you to enjoy the rest of your night in the city’s most vibrant district.
