This location changes names as frequently as other bars change wait staff.

When it opened as Xanadu in 2004, the luxurious and glitzy design attracted a local crowd. A year later, it was overhauled and re-emerged as MOS Club. The demise of MOS club gave birth to Face to Face: different name, same look. So, imagine our total lack of surprise when we happened upon a poster advertising the grand opening of @ one club. We visited one Thursday night to investigate, and found the design is unchanged, though the pair of risque salsa dancers is new.

But as we wordlessly sipped our Cold Brazils (rum, triple sec and lemon juice, RMB 35), we couldn't help but wonder if the novelty floor show will be enough to help @ one club escape the fate of its predecessors.
