Le Petit Gourmand, Beijing, China

“I tend to meet potential clients over coffee” the web developer I was meeting with said through the phone.  I knew this meant there was no office, just a man who works from a computer at home. No worries though – I was once a freelancer myself and knew the routine well. While we were [...]

Kerry’s Kitchen, Shangri-La Kerry Hotel, Beijing, China

I was meeting my friends from the Charitarian for lunch but did not know the dining destination. To me surprise and delight, we decided on the new Kerry’s Kitchen, located just adjacent to the lobby. While this restaurant boasts on incredible buffet, happiness washed over me as I found the club sandwich on their a [...]

Bamboo Lobby Lounge, Sheraton Miyako Hotel, Tokyo, Japan

Before leaving on my 3 day trip to Tokyo, I knew in the back of my mind a club sandwich was not going to be a priority; sushi, sushi, burgers, and more sushi were all I cared about… and of course I dined on this nearly every meal, except for one. Before heading on the [...]

On The Corner – Le Resto du Coin, Phnom Penh, Cambodia

Ordered at the restaurant On The Corner – Le Resto du Coin, Phnom Penh, Cambodia. My trip to Cambodia had a specific purpose that involved little sightseeing: because I am on a tourist visa, every 3 months I must leave China, so this time I chose Phnom Penh as my visa getaway. Why would this [...]

JW Marriott Hotel, Shanghai, China

“It would be a shame, if after 3 years of living in China, you never visited Shanghai,” I confessed to my girlfriend. “So let’s go for my birthday,” was her response. Done.

JW Marriott Hotel, Beijing, China

Very meaty bacon; it’s the first thing you notice when biting into this club. And as hard as it is to get decent bacon in China, JW does a good job… something I’ve learned to expect from the Marriott brand. Unfortunately, the  sliced turkey was extremely poor quality of  - almost tasted like ham – and [...]

The Place Cafe, Beijing, China

The Place Café is a great local lunch spot in the central business district of Beijing.  And with their solid sandwich menu, the club is a definite standout.  They know what their doing here, even if it’s not the most traditional version of the sandwich; perfectly large ripe tomato, freshly fried egg, hearty piece of [...]

Beijing Capital International Airport, Terminal 3

With my flight leaving for America at 6:45am, a club sandwich sounded great after I passed through security around 5am.  Wow was this a sad sandwich – thank goodness the bar was open too and I could drown my sorrows for the plight of this unfortunate club. No care was put into this creation. Where [...]

Renaissance Hotel, Tianjin, China

We flew through Tianjin on our way back from Kuala Lumpur and stayed a night here before returning to Beijing.  With nothing but Chinese food on the books for the next several weeks, I decided to go for the club sandwich for a last treat… unfortunately, it wasn’t what I was hoping for. It’s hard to [...]
