Discover Hope & Sesame - Canton - China - July 2016
A short clip about Hope & Sesame, our Speakeasy bar in Guangzhou!
Thanks the WeChat blog 一介 for they great skills and passion to share and write about Guangzhou's life and happenings
Welcome to the Hope & Sesame - Guangzhou's speakeasy cocktail bar
A Hidden Bar • GUANGZHOU, CHINA
You won’t find any signs for this bar. If you’re having trouble finding the entrance, no one will come help you. But, if you know to walk into this vacant shop, and you know the secret entrance to the bar, you’ll enter the first legal speak easy in Guangzhou (Canton), China. It would be difficult to find better cocktails in the entire city.
If you’ve never heard of Guangzhou, don’t worry. It’s only the 9th largest city in the world. Formerly (also) known as Canton, the cuisine of this region was the first Chinese food to be introduced to the United States. Even though you may not be familiar with the city, you are certainly familiar with its Cantonese food.

David joined us, Wilson went to grandmother's place and we just all went to chimelong amusement park. We went on some rides and experienced the 4D. It was pretty uncomfortable lol. We then went out to eat and I ate sooo much. We then went into the speak easy bar and it looks pretty good. Good night.
