Guangzhou Food & Drink Gossip: February 2018

The Scandalous Scoop is a regular feature where our editors share the latest food and drink gossip making the rounds in Guangzhou.

We're digging:

The long-awaited arrival of Doors, which serves Turkish cuisine that has gained quite a following with our neighbors down in Shenzhen; the return of The Strand’s doppelbock; the fact 13 Factories is still dishing out delectable eats, despite the closure of the eatery’s second floor; 

the new RMB25 drink menu at The Brew Bistro & Bar in Zhujiang New Town; the new curry and sausage shack on Jianshe Liu Malu; Guangzhou’s first Outback Steak House, opening soon in Parc Central; 

and the succulent CNY meal specials debuting at most top-tier Guangzhou hotels this month.

We’re done with:

The ongoing 2am curfew at Party Pier (enough is enough, already); the closure of McCawley's Irish Pub, RIP; 

and people stacking their pizza wayyy too high at The Pizza Factory.
