2013 Feb 16 Win Stuff: Warm Up With a Feast at Ganges
Like China, India is a rising superpower with a swelling population, a fast-developing economy, and, most importantly, tons of delicious food. Let the flavors of India flex their might in your mouth this winter at Ganges, where you can feast on Indian classics like butter chicken, murg masalam and paneer tikka.
If you want to gorge on carbs (and who doesn’t at this time of year?), you’ll be in bread heaven with Ganges’ specialty naan, chapatis and tandoori roti. With five Ganges branches to choose from, you won’t even have to wander too far in the cold to get your Indian food fix.
We’re offering one RMB 1,000 voucher to a reader who can tell us: What is the name for the Hindu pilgrimages that are held on the banks of the Ganges every three years?
Send your answer to win@thebeijinger.com before Feb 28. Good luck!

Union Busted, Fat Burnt: Vote Now In The Grand Grill-Off
It's a real Cinderella story in this year's Burger Cup. Heck, it might even be two fairy tales. How so?

Frog Squashed: Voting Open In Final Flaming Four
What do you get if you combine Midori melon liqueur, Advocaat liqueur, Bailey's Irish Cream and grenadine syrup? Hint: It's the same as what happens when you combine Brussels and Blue Frog in the Burger Cup. The answer is a squashed frog. Not only is it a delicious shooter but it's also the fate of last year's champion. That's right, the reigning champ (and #1 seed) has been defeated by those plucky #21 seeds at Brussels. We weren't expecting that but well done to everyone at Brussels, especially in generating voter interest with their burger deals.
