Shanghai Review – D10 Departure Lounge

shanghai review

This Shanghai Review about high-concept addition to the subterranean talking-girl wonderland of Datong Mill is shaped, inside and out, like the fuselage of a passenger plane. The waitresses and barmen are dressed as stewardesses and pilots. You can stow your bags in overhead compartments and there’s a first class area with cramped little airplane loos.

Shanghai Review of Datong Mill is a new hotspot, just opened in jan 2010 and we are sure, it will be the future hotspot in shanghai. The decoration is very strange, like a classic garden, everything is new and the place is much more “clean” than other bar hotspots in shanghai.

Datong Mill is located in the underground, covered by a nice park. Around the center fountain, you will find several “arms” with small and big girls bars, dance clubs, live clubs and restaurants.

Shanghai Review about another cool bar in the Datong Mill area is the oasis. You will really find nightlife girls shanghai there. The bar is decorated very nice, the pool table is on of the best in Datong Mill, and they also offer a lounge area in a second level. The girls are a little bit up to some other bars, more glamour style, dressed better and more beautiful.
