Sanlitun Kro's Nest Now Open!

With his "comeback" branch comfortably bedded in up on Xiaoyun Lu, it was only a matter of time before pizza godfather Olav "Kro" Bauer staked a claim for a share of the Sanlitun turf lost following his well-documented split with former business partner Yuan Jie. (If you don't know that story, catch up with a selection of reports here.) Well, for fans of huge, topping-loaded pizzas, the time has come - a new branch of Kro's Nest opened on Monday (August 29) in the Sanlitun Nanlu yard that houses The Bookworm, d lounge, Nanjie and Salsa Caribe.

The new branch is directly opposite and south of Salsa Caribe, at the entrance of the alleyway where d lounge is situated. For more details, see this opening day post from the laptop-less but ever-intrepid Beijing Boyce. We'll have more for you when we get a chance to check the new Kro's out ourselves.
