There are lies, damned lies and statistics but in this month's issue of the Beijinger we promise only to bring you the statistics. For our Cover Feature we've taken a look at the city from a new angle (or two), we've delved into dusty archives, we've crunched numbers, we've sketched out complicated diagrams and we've run multiple computer simulations ... all to deliver a vision of Beijing as you've never seen it before. Your eyes are in for a treat and your mind is in for a good work-out.
Elsewhere in the March issue you will find out that Tom O'Malley ate all the pies (for the Dining Feature), we're told how to make a lavish duck pie, we go Back For More to Bleu Marine for one of the city's best steaks and we bravely find out the hummus which we heart is in our Taste Test.
We've also got coverage galore of the literary goings on this month. There's slam poet Omar Musa, Marilyn Monroe's talking dog courtesy of Andrew O'Hagan, a massive slap in the face from Christos Tsiolkas, Emma Donoghue's bookshelf and Peter Hessler interviewing Yan Lianke.
Off the books, we caught up with "The Post-Emo Indie Emerging Church Christians band" Anberlin, the legendary LTJ Bukem and the organizers of Beijing's Country Fair plus - for a little break from Beijing - we bring you a look into the weird world of Tokyo tea houses.
As if that wasn't enough, Inside the magazine (or in those handy PDFs if you prefer), you'll also find the usual mix of the best events, new bars, restaurants and shops plus all of your old favorites like Ich Bin Ein Beijinger and Fashion 5-0 and the chance to win even more things then before.
