Weekend brunch at Jing-A Longfusi

Jing-A has launched a new brunch menu at their Longfusi Taproom. Choose from classic brunch dishes like avocado toast and a breakfast plate with eggs, hash browns, and house-cured bacon, or opt for a breakfast twist on one of their signature sourdough pizzas. Brunch is available every weekend, 11am-5pm.

A Very British Dumpling Party at The Hutong, Jul 26

The British Chamber of Commerce in China and The Hutong have teamed up on a series of "Rediscover your City" events, starting with a dumpling-making class with a British twist on Sun, Jul 26. Get ready to learn to mix, make, and fold traditional Chinese dumplings with British fillings — full English breakfast dumplings, anyone? The class is priced at RMB 260 per person (RMB 130 for kids), including free-flow beer and soft drinks.

Pide and mezze at Side Street every Thursday

Every Thursday, Turkish chef Hakan steps into the kitchen at Side Street. Hakan, who previously worked in the Turkish seaside cities of İzmir and Ayvalık, will be whipping up Turkish pide – a traditional oval-shaped flatbread – topped with either beef and cheese or mushrooms and cheese, along with three different mezze dishes. Wash it down with a pint of Turkey's most famous beer, Efes.
