Shanghai Friday Night Tip – The Kavkaz

Tired of the same old bars and all these would-be “speakeasies” (what’s that all about!) in Frenchtown? Of course you are – but sadly you can no longer visit the Kavkaz on Rue Lafayette (Fuxing Middle Road) but you could in the 1930s – wonder if Raisky’s Singing Strummers were any good? There was a notorious White Russian bar called the Kavkaz in the Peking Badlands too but I don’t think the two were linked in anything but name.
