Friday night after finishing work Gary, Qi and I had a dinner at La Gondola (great Italian restaurant by the way, check it out. Next to Westin Hotel, corner of Henan Lu and Yan’an Lu). Instead of hitting Shanghai nightlife, we decided to hit some golf balls at the driving range next to JinMao. It was still quite busy at 11 PM, and also still quite warm. Nice way to end a busy week, and not too expensive (total RMB 80 including a beer and two cokes).
(BTW, photos were taken with my phone, that explains the low quality)
