I dont why many people say its pizza is good....... :roll: though I am not an expert on pizza.

Where is the gongti one's location?

:roll:

Just a suggestion: don't use your personal pic as an avatar. Some people have done it before, and in most cases it has come back to haunt them.

Suit yourself, but that's my two cents.

Seriously people, when is it opening? Maybe Beijing Boyce can shed some light? There's gotta be someone out there who is friends with the owner of Kro's Nest.

It is indeed Oct. 1st. Bar and interior are done, final touches are going in this week.

Must... restrain...

i've been back in the US for 2 days,

had nice real pizza twice already...
in fact it was the first thing i smelled as i walked above the waiting area of Newark Airport Terminal C

Had lunch there today so it's open. Have to say I was amazed by the size of the Medium pizza, but for the rest it was a tad disappointing. A Small pizza is just one slice of the bigger one, and then 17 kuai is a bit much, and the price of the salads and drinks are also not very friendly. The only two exceptions are a diet coke and a tsingdao draft (10 and 15 respectively). Most other beers are 35 (carlsberg), 15 for any other soft drink (even water) and mixes for 65 to 90 (gin-tonic goes for 70).

So good place to go with a group of friends for shared pizza and beers, but everything out of that list and you'll end up paying a double bill.

I've always found them to be very reasonably priced--especially now considering how high their rent must be. Their ingredients and ovens are mostly imported too--17 kuai is too expensive for a big slice of pizza????

Dude.... :roll:

Adjacent to Mixs (or was it Vics?).

i ve had g&t and poutine for breakfast
well
it was ... unordinary ... even for my standards
u got a point 8-)

but it s more than u pay for such a drink in almost any bar in this town
it s weird AND expensive

anyway i m not much into BIG pizzas

went to kro's nest yesterday for lunch. good pizza all around: good crust, good sauce, good toppings... the deck out back was relaxing. for the cost-conscious, you can get a medium pizza (which has six big slices) and two qingdao drafts for 110 kuai - very reasonable for pizza of this quality and size.

the mixed drinks are expensive but huge. according to management, the jack and coke has three oversized shots of whisky (~ 5 ounces). it costs 90 kuai but is a sizeable pour.

anyway, i think i'll stick to beer....

cheers, boyce

I'm sort of lost when it comes to marketing tactics by selling liquor in this fashion - 90 kuai for a drink, even if it is that strong, I've gone to dive joints and paid 20 kuai for a jack and coke and been given a glass filled with jack and a coke can - must be missing something.

mmmmm, spicy italian pizza and hoegaarden draft--nothin better

OMG

Kros nest is pretty fukin great.

Medium pizza was so retardedly huge..

all i could say to my guy when the pizza came...... "this kind of sh*t is why the rest of the world hates you americans"

excessively large. I had to force down 2 slices. The toppings are crazy thick and they dont skimp on the cheese.

all other things on the menu are priced interestingly..
the 90kuai jack and coke really threw us.
but im guessing they dont want it to turn into a divey drinking hole (it already resembles poachers inside)

that way people will come to eat and have a beer or two but they wont get a cheap student crowd overflowing from Vics and Mix looking for booze refills and causing trouble.

I would pay 70kuai for a triple G&T if it really was that large.

but who cares anyway.. go there for the pizza.. you dont need anything else.

I feel so proud to say that i was with you on that great morning.
