For the fourth edition of Shake's supper club, chef Danyi Gao is taking us to Cuba – with a five-course dinner followed by live funk, soul and Latin music. The feast involves ensalada de pulpo, sopa de pollo, mojo lobster, ropa vieja and chocolate tres leches. For drinks, Colin Tait curated a menu of classic Cuban cocktails including Cancha and Hotel Nacional. And to finish the night, Shake's six-piece band and the-one-and-only Courtney Knott bring you three sets of funk and tropical vibes.

Get your reservations in, because Cages only does barbecue once a week. Leave the office early as Cages rolls out its southern style BBQ menu from 5pm. Get there early because it's first-come, first serve. Get ready for a delectable selection of smoked meats, sides and sauces.

Ever wondered why Shanghai goes crab crazy two months out of the year? Find out why, and also discover the reasons Tang Dynasty poets immortalized these crabs in verse millennia ago with this hairy crab feast. This tour showcases the delicacy in a local, authentic setting. You'll walk through the streets of Shanghai's Old Town, an area that is currently disappearing lane by lane, and sample several classic hairy crab dishes, including wontons in hairy crab broth, crab roe lion's head meatballs and more.
