Drinking Jack on the rocks. I really hate Jack Daniels but Tony loves it.
Yeeha! is the name of the restaurant. This is a bad picture, but you can see it on the left.
I asked Tony, do Chinese really watch NFL games? He said, "hell no."
NFL was being advertised to Americans. Shanghai is a really westernized city. Some of the bars, clubs, and bars I've been to have more American and European customers than Chinese.
They had a section of basketball cards. I took one of Grant Hill because I actually met him.
Go ContraVest! haha
These fries were DA BOMB! The best American food I've had in China.
The beers on the side are Tigers. Tiger is a beer from Singapore. It's pretty good, and it was the cheapest. 35 Yuan for a glass, which is $5.
Brings me to my next point, you can still blow a lot of money in Shanghai. Mixed drinks and beers at expensive bars and clubs average out to 50 Yuan per drink. Cheap bars and clubs sell the same drinks for 15-20 Yuan. There are also a lot of "all you can drink" cover specials. Usually around 80-100 Yuan. Pretty good deal, but just like in the States, they water down the drinks and put way too much coke or mixers in the drink. Usually, you have to settle for beer. Not a bad deal though.
Funny story. Last night Tony and I were at Muse (an expensive club) and we ordered 2 Tsingtaos (Chinese beer). I asked how much, the bartender said 90. I said what!
Tony and I bucked and went across the street to a convenient store and got 2 cold Tsingtaos for 6 Yuan, which is 88 cents. haha. That's what I call shopping around.

Ahaha! Have you showed China the art of shotgunning a beer yet? It might become a cultural phenomenon, so I'd be careful about that!
No I haven't showed them yet. Maybe I can set a world record in China. As long as Daniel Lee isn't here I'm sure I can hold my ground. haha
