It's the last week before Spring Festival and here are three things for the week ahead in the capital.
This Friday, Jan 24 at 7pm, The Hutong are putting on a special Gourmet Dumplings Cooking Class ahead of Chinese New Year. Attendees will learn the whole dumpling making process, from kneading the dough to preparing the fillings – one will be meat filling and one will be vegetarian – and how to cook them. The class is RMB 350 for non-members and RMB 300 for members and to sign up, you can contact The Hutong by scanning the QR code in the poster above.

On Saturday, Jan 25 at 7pm, Adi Kavya – The First Poem, a dance drama inspired by the Indian epic Ramayana (inspired by Prof Ji Xianlin's translation), will be performed at the Shunyi Grand Theatre. Directed by Bharatanatyam dancer Ms. Jin Shanshan, Ramayana is a celebrated timeless epic that not only occupies a vital place in Indian cultural history but has also deeply shaped the cultural traditions of Southeast Asia. Tickets are RMB 98 and can be purchased by scanning the QR code in the poster above.

Ahead of the Chinese New Year, Jing-A has just launched a new brew called "Trio of Blessings". Although a fruity number, it has a hefty ABV of 7.2 percent and features a triple-hop blend of Idaho 7, Nelson Sauvin and Cryo Mosaic. Flavorwise, it has notes of passion fruit, zesty citrus and white peach and is deceptively smooth. It's now available at all Jing-A branches.
