EAT: Dine and Design at Tribe, and Last Chance for a Great Deal at TRB

Treat yourself (and a friend) to a lunch date this week and make the most of TRB's current "Epicurean Community" deal. Make sure both of you follow TRB on WeChat at trbchina (the aforementioned Epicurean Community), and then one person can enjoy a complimentary three-course lunch. Split the cost between you and roll home happy and full a couple of hours later. 

Staying within the fine dining spectrum, Rosewood Beijing are currently offering a Summer Wine and Dine deal across Bistrot B, Country Kitchen, and Red Bowl. A spend of RMB 1,300 at any one of the restaurants (not that difficult to do, particularly at Bistrot B) gets you a complimentary bottle of Veuve Cliquot at newly opened lounge bar, MEI. We recommend heading to northern Chinese restaurant Country Kitchen, were they have a 10-course set menu for four, handily priced at RMB 1,300, which covers some of their most popular dishes, including Peking duck, Hangzhou ham with pancakes, and tomato sauce-simmered prawns.

If you're more of the make do and mend type, then Tribe and WeChat channel Ni's (ID: nidenis) have the perfect event for you. This Saturday, August 29, they are teaming up to present Recycling is Revealing, a unique dining event combining a five-course dinner with the opportunity to let your design inspiration run free. During the dinner, diners will be divided up into teams and given a selection of recycled materials with which to design their very own outfits. Afterwards, you'll get to walk the runway in your creation and the best designers will win prizes. As Tim Gunn would say, "Designers, make it work!"
