Lived here for 9 months.

[Wander]

Hello all,
Been here on and off for the last 8~9 months. I am starting to finally have some free time, so time to meet people and explore. I am located downtown near the Westin hotel and Wanda plaza, does anyone have any suggestions on where to go or what to do?

thanks

There are quite a few foreigners in that area and it is also where I will open a bar.
It is close to NingGuo Lu which is also know as LongXia Street, famous for the local the fresh water lobster, introduced by the Japanese to destroy the paddy fields during the war, so I am lead to believe. I know I'd prefer to eat longxia than mifan...

NingGuo Lu also has a few nightclubs at the north end, Boiling100, Pheobe, and some others.
