 Cafe Vienna, A Hidden Gem in KFQ,  Friday, 25 April 2008 Heard about Cafe Vienna from a friend, read a couple of reviews and decided to check it out, really glad that we did.

We went for the buffet on Friday night (40 RMB per person). The food was great. Lasagna, Mashed Potatoes, Salad, Various Beef Dishes (No Bones), Real Chicken Strips (No Bones), just to name a few of the items on the buffet. There were more but too many to list.

Lots of Xpats there, but not too crowded, I suspect that will change as word spreads around more. The staff was very friendly. Sally (Kind of the Bar Manager) speaks very good English and Heinz (One of the Owners) speaks very good English as well.

The drink prices are in the normal range of a bar, except for the Buffet price. If you go a way hungry at 40 RMB then it's your own fault. They also have a pretty good wine selection to choose from.

The atmosphere was very relaxed without the music so loud that you can't carry on a conversation. Nice decor and an upstairs area with tables and sofas for a more private evening.

All in all we will be going back for sure. It is nice find a place for those of us that live in Jinzhou without having to go to the City Center when we want to have a nice meal and a relaxing evening out.

 Club Love was a BLAST!!!!!,  Saturday, 16 February 2008 We went to Club Love on Friday, Feb. 15th. Ladies drinks were free and they could choose one with Baileys or one with vodka, my wife liked both very much - :)

We arrived somewhat early for clubbing, around 9:00 and people started coming around 10:00-10:30 or so. Never really got packed but I anticipate as people hear more about the club that that will change in the near future.

What I would like to emphasize is the service, we have never been treated better by a staff at a club ever. Very attentive, courteous and always concerned that we had what we needed. A+++++

Food was brought to our table in the form of a fruit tray, very nice and the standard nuts were provided and then later in the night we were served chicken nuggets (we had a group of about 14 or so) a nice touch for a big group that had obviously spent a few RMB's during the night. And as a nice touch, Tim the owner (also speaks extremely good english) brought each lady in our group a single rose for Valentine's day.

Prices were very resonable and the place was very clean (restrooms had attendants). There was a coat check which was nice to not have to keep up with coats, gloves, hats, and purses.

The music was not the same Britney Spears remixed a hundred times, it was pretty loud (but hey it's a danceclub and you have to keep it pumping). I will say that they have state of the art sound and lighting equipment which included laser and smoke machines, that put on a pretty good show.

There are dancers that dance from time to time, about once or twice an hour that are pretty to look at and yes there were some male dancers (eye-candy) for the ladies to ogle over too. Not trashy, very talented.

All in all we will definitely be back, we had a GREAT time as we were with a large group and as I stated before the service was incredible.

We give the Love Club high marks and you should go and check it out.

 The Kangaroo Bar is Relaxed........,  Sunday, 10 February 2008 We frequent the "Aussie Bar" whenever we are on that side of Jinzhou. Hannah (speaks very good english BTW), the manager for Paul, is a great host and will ensure that your stay there is enjoyable. The prices are probably average for the bars in the city.

No DJ, tunes from the computer, but just about anything that you want to hear, or if you have a CD they will play it for you.

No restaraunt, snacks or what I like to call "Bar Food", nuts, popcorn etc...

Small place that is inhabited by mostly Xpats, a few natives come in from time to time. There is no dance floor, just a place to sit and talk and enjoy a drink or two.

We really enjoy outselves there. You might too!
