There's another cotton candy ice-cream brand in Beijing: Ruimilk (and it too has the whole laboratory set-up). As an ice-cream lover, I honestly don't know how I feel about this cloudy craze -- but I'll reserve my judgement until I actually try one of these concoctions. By the way, I took the photos below from the 凯德 shopping mall in 太阳宫.

I'm sure you will enjoy the neon-pink one Crazy

All the controversy surrounding Ghostbusters didn't completely scare off movie goers. Variety reports that the movie grossed USD 46 million stateside in its debut weekend, coming in second to mega-hit Finding Dory. That's a solid start, but the article goes on to say:

"Though it ranks as the best debut for a live action comedy in over a year, the film will have to show some endurance, as well as resonate with foreign audiences, to make a profit. After all, dusting off the ectoplasm was expensive, with Sony shelling out $144 million to make “Ghostbusters” and millions more to market the film. That tops what most comedies cost to produce and distribute."

Hopefully Sony will be able to make up the difference by being permitted to screen the action comedy in The Middle Kingdom.

From Union management:

 

"Closing on or just before August 20th. 
Zach Lewison, formally of Union, kro's, park side is coming back to see us through to closing. 

Starting on Saturday we'll be running a bbq specials menu for a week. We've got ribs, burgers, bbq and herb chicken and steak. All come with free flavoured ice tea or you can get a draught Kentucky IPA for 8rmb. So that means no lunch specials or brunch this weekend. 

Our happy hour has changed slightly and now runs from opening until 8pm."
