Saving Face*

By Morgan Short, Jan 22nd, 2009 | In

Long time Shanghai watering hole Face Bar will be moving to Donghu Lu (near Huaihai Lu), occupying the space next to the Donghu Hotel where inscrutable restaurant Mojo just closed shop.



Yeah "Mojo" closed.



This is from their webpage: "We will recreate a temporary Hazara Express, Lan Na Express and a Bar at No.30, Dong Hu Road which we shall call "Mini Face" tentatively opening in March 2009. Furthermore, we hope that, subject to negotiations being successful, we will re-open Face in all its complexity and glory in approximately 12 months time."



Face bar closed in December, moving from much-adored Ruijin Lu location after some 90 years in the biz.



*I call firsties on snagging the "saving face" pun.
