The Kee Club (796 HuaiHai Lu) is a beautiful private restaurant, bar and retail complex in a mansion just off the well-worn track of Huai Hai Lu. Now if you haven’t heard of it yet, it’s because you are poor and they don’t want your type in there. Now move along please.

Bullish: We stopped by Noodle Bull, the Taiwanese noodle joint in the new Mansion building on the corner of Fumin Lu and Changle Lu, for lunch last week. The decor was sleek and simple and the food was well presented and serviced. The noodles were authentic in texture and consistency, but the stock and meat pairings offered on the very scaled down menu were a bit ordinary and punchless when it came to flavor. Low prices (25-35 RMB), convenient location, and great service and environment are sure to offset these shortcomings for busy lunch-break professionals, who packed all the seats at the tables along the two walls and at the two large communal stretch tables the cut through the middle of the restaurant. We can see this place sticking around for a while.
