East Meets West Celebrations
February 1st, in Editor's Note by Jan Raymond ConaderaFebruary 2010 starts with a double celebration: Chinese New Year and Valentine Day fall on the same day, the 14th. Can you imagine how the different establishments will prepare for this day?
Without a doubt, these various bars, clubs and restaurants will come up with some unique party concepts that will marry these two auspicious occasions. I believe that on this date, it would be awesome to be up and about and be in a frenzy.
Here are some checklists from Circuit team for those partying on the 14th of February:
- Make sure that you plan ahead and book your reservations in advance.
- Expect slow moving traffic in densely populated areas on the Big Red Letter Day. Ergo, find alternate routes early.
- Parking can be quite a hassle so keep your cool when looking for the next available slot.
- Check out the coolest treats and unique themes that establishments have to offer.
- Make sure you log on to www.circuitmag.net or stay tuned to Circuit TV (Wednesdays, 8:30PM on Skycable Channel 25) and Circuit Radio (Thursdays, 8AM on Jam 88.3) for the freshest…
