It's that time of year again; our biggest event of the season: the 16th edition of the That's Shanghai Food & Drink Awards, which is proudly sponsored by Heineken and hosted by Bar Rouge.
Just like every year, readers have a month to vote for their favorite restaurants, bars, chefs, cafes, mixologists and more. Find out how to vote right here.
Voting is open all month until August 31, and the winners will be announced at our exclusive awards ceremony next month. Until then, we'll be introducing the categories and rounding up the nominees. Today, we're looking at all the nominees for Shanghai's favorite bars and nightlife venues.
