Hot Off the Press: The Beijinger November 2013 Issue

The latest issue of the Beijinger is hot off the press and is hitting a magazine rack near you. Pick up a copy and find out everything you need to know about November in Beijing.

 In the pages of this issue:

There is a comedy outbreak spreading through Beijing and in this issue's cover feature we look at some of the faces behind the phenomenon. Des Bishop has spent the last year in Beijing filming a TV documentary about learning to do standup in Chinese and who is bolstering the local scene. We also got local funnymen (and women) to defend why they are "funny" and take a look at the big comedy events taking place this November, including shows by Tom Rhodes and Marcus Brigstocke.

In the FOOD & DRINK section, Dining Editor Cat Nelson gives us a nice breakdown of Ghost Street and all of its delectable late-night eats. Wine columnist Jim Boyce spooks us with some wine terror tales and Nightlife Editor Paul Ryding gets the scoop on Slow Boat bottling craft brews.

In GO and MEET we take you from underwater exploration in the Philippines to New York style bloggers, The Bumbys, and their take on threads in the Jing. Finally, Peking Man closes the book as usual with a rant on upselling in hair salons.
