activities; so little night time. At Wanchai bars, we could be sipping a rare
craft beer out of a sweaty crystal chalice and still feel like we're doing
something dirty. Not quite able to shake off its history as a port of call
crawling with prostitutes, Wanchai is one nightlife hot spot where the "World
of Suzy Wong" image of Hong Kong still feels alive. In fact, the 1960s movie
was filmed here. Today, flashy new Wanchai bars and clubs sit in a backdrop
of aging topless bars on the Lockhart Road barstrip. No matter how the chrome
shines at the grand opening of a Wanchai nightclub there is always an
undercurrent of sleaze. And it's great. A Wanchai party just feels more
uninhibited than other parties. Drinks prices are also attractive -- often
half of those in Lan Kwai Fong -- drawing thirsty people to Wanchai bars like
fat flies to hot dung.read more
