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 soon-to-be-open Guu’s Cigar & Whiskey Lounge, a hangout worthy of Ron Burgundy and company; convenience store staple Rio stepping it up with a weird yet tasty yogurt-vodka blend

the arrival of Michelin reviewers in Guangzhou to craft the city’s first Michelin Guide;

the debut of Ginstar’s delicious and affordable sandwiches, burgers and pizzas in the CBD; late nights (4am cocktails, anyone?) at Cat Lounge

Zhujiang New Town’s newest speakeasy, Spin; and, of course, the return of Gail’s.

We’re done with:

The flop of Mickey D’s latest themed burgers – holy Batman, they’re bad;

the closure of second floor dining areas in many of Zhujiang New Town’s most notable establishments;

Jiangnanxi’s Curry Monster being replaced by a fruit and veggie shop; and finally, the closure of The Brew Bar & Bistro’s Jianshe Liu Malu location, RIP.
