Champoo Description

Run by a group of pragmatic Buddhists, Champoo in OCT-Loft has the cozy feel of a yurt from the set of Wolf Totem. Though the bar is not Mongolian themed, it could easily be mistaken as such, with a lupine pelt on the wall, pictures of ruddy grassland women and fireplaces glowing orange in each of the upper rooms. Named for the Chimpu caves, a mountain hermitage for lamas and nuns in Tibet, the bar’s two-story complex contains concealed, cave-like rooms of varying sizes as well as an expansive main area on its second level.
