With its dark wood, polished glass and intimate, elevated units, this is one of the classiest drinking spots on NLGX. Its menu includes foreign wines, custom cocktails and bottle service. Unfortunately, the pop music permeating Red House is not as sophisticated as its menu or décor.
Red House Over There
Walking into Red House, Nanluo Guxiang’s latest joint appears the perfect spot for an intimate, late night drink on the capital’s trendiest hutong. With its dark wood and polished glass, the décor is simple yet sophisticated. Eight small elevated units with comfortable white couches and hard wood tables give drinkers a taste of VIP exceptionalness. The drink menu is extensive, with four pages of foreign wines (from YY260), coffees (from YY18) and of course a selection of cocktails, beers and bottle service. The Electric Ice Tea (YY48) is a particularly interesting remix of the classic Long Island. The beer selection covers only the basics, beginning with Qingdaos (YY20) and ending with Heinekens (YY25). What Red House is missing in beer, it more than makes up for with its well mixed drinks and tasteful wine selection. These cannot, however, excuse the damage done by playing a mix of Backstreet Boys, Britney Spears and, oddly enough, Metallica. Fortunately, the volume level is as tasteful and subtle as its décor. If someone can hand Red House a descent mix CD, Nanluo Guxiang may finally have the perfect spot for an intimate, late night drink.
