The Boom Boom Room and Lili Marleen have made a deal with Bacardi Light to be the only clubs in Shenzhen to serve Bacardi’s special punch.

We sidled our way over to the second bar, specializing in whiskey, cocktails and blond foreign bartenders. Videos of Western jazz bands play on vast screens and a bright red baby grand piano sits on the glass stage above the bar. The club has the usual excess of lights common in Chinese clubs, with low tables by the armchairs and massive chandeliers hung with large crystal beads. The selection of imports generally is excellent and the price moderate, with all beer ranging from RMB40-60 a bottle. Louis Pêche (RMB45), a light, slightly sour peach beer at once fruity and refined. We wove our way through the club, past its many plush yellow and blue armchairs to the imported beer bar and ordered a St.

Advertisements for the club had claimed it was managed by Lili Marleen, leading us to expect overly loud music and bouncers in complete army fatigues.Īfter getting our bags thoroughly rifled through by a portly security guard with a flashlight, we were surprised to hear music – yes, hear, as opposed to being overwhelmed by high decibels. The Boom Boom Room – just the name made us shudder as we climbed up the deactivated escalator to the third floor of Coastal City.
