Tomatito is a one-of-a-kind Spanish tapas bar in Shanghai created by Barcelona Chef Willy Trullàs. But it’s going to be popping up at Mosto this week for one night only. Prepare to have your minds blown by an eight-course meal consisting of tapas made by Chef Willy. Think mini steamed buns with chorizo and quail egg, traditional oxtail stew and tuna belly salad. 

Thursday, May 19th, Reservations between 5:30pm and 10pm on 5208 6030. RMB 488; Mosto, see event listing for details.

This might just be the perfect pairing. Rager and Ramo are combining forces to bring you a day filled with pizza pies and coffee cocktails. Seriously, what could be better? To top it off there will be 90s music by DJ Cad73.

Sat May 21, 4-10pm. Ramo, see event listing for details.

May 22: Quinn Dahle

The Los Angeles-based comic has wowed The Tonight Show with his clean wit, and he’s worked with legends like Robin Williams and Drew Carey. Now he’s making his second trip to China after slaying audiences last summer. Dahle’s brand of comedy appeals to all ages and ethnicities so make sure to bring your mom and friends (then make them sit at the front – he’s probably too nice to pick on them).

Sun May 22, 8pm; RMB150-180 (RMB100 students); The Bookworm, see event listing for details.
