Last month, we wrapped up our 16th annual That's Shanghai Food & Drink Awards, with this year’s biggest awards going to Mercato (Restaurant of the Year), Union Trading Company (Bar of the Year) and Bar Rouge (Club of the Year), while Together, Funka del Sur and Club 3 1/3 came out on top in their respective categories for new restaurants, bar and club. To see a full list of winners, click here or turn to p40 in the magazine.
It’s been a long tradition for us to invite some of the city’s hardest working F&B personalities to appear on our movie-themed cover for this issue. Inspired by Ocean's 8, Anna Bautista (Highline), Christine Asuncion (Spread the Bagel), Danyi Gao (Shake), Camden Hauge (Egg, Bird, Bitter, Social Supply), Bina Yu (Together), Elizabeth Schieffelin (Lizzy's All Natural), Ting Ting Liang (Roxie, RIINK) and Kim Melvin (Together, Commune Social) all dressed up in their most badass outfits and out-smized Tyra Banks for the shoot.
A very special thank you goes out to Marius Ionita and Rachel Gouk from KOLLEKTIV Creative Hub – a creative branding and communications company – for photographing our beautiful models!
Elsewhere in the mag, I spoke with Tokyo-based photographer Cody Ellingham (@cbje_tokyo) about his recent trip to Shanghai in which he shot the ‘Shanghai Streets’ photo series in our City feature (p12). Meanwhile, Arts Editor Sarah Forman sat down with Shanghai-based teen DJ Goauchi to chat about her budding career in an ever-changing club scene (p36).
Food Editor Cristina Ng has your regular fix of the newest restaurants and bars in the city in her Eat & Drink section. Last but not least, our bar columnist Logan Brouse shares some of the most embarrassing blunders he and the city’s most prominent bartenders have ever made in public. Turn to p64 to find out who lost his pants in a bar!
Until next month,
Dominic Ngai
Editor-in-Chief
