Tuesday Losers Club boasts the most "open" of open mics in town. People are reading poetry, playing music, doing performance art; if you want to show off the Tuvan throat singing you just started learning yesterday, this is the place where you’re likely to find a supportive audience. Anyone brave enough to get on the mic gets a free drink, but they don’t like to tell you that. Every week comes with a new fixed menu from the bar, but if you ask the bartender nicely they might make you a drink from a larger cocktail menu that’s amazingly pretentious and equally delicious. Hosted by local color Dee at the bar inside Yongfoo Elite (go in through the gate and follow the path of the courtyard), things usually start around 8:30 p.m. and go until the mic's dead. No cover.
