Farewell Uncle Rhys

It is with a very sorry heart we must report the loss of Rhys. Rhys will be heading back to the UK sometime soon to pursue glory. The Team at TT, CHINAssist, HUKIT and the Rugby Club will miss ‘Uncle Rhys’ affectionately referred to on occasion as the ‘Goose’. We all wish him well and hope like other Nantong Legends like Amon he will frequently return to check on the homestead! We will miss you Rhysy!

Irish Bar’s Margarita

They are soo good we’re no longer able to recall the price but Irish Pub is surely worth a visit to try David’s Margarita - the only place in Nantong that can make one. Irish Pub is on Chengshan Lu [the strip] about half way down between Natural Bar and Toxic Bar. Irish Pub is also one of the few places on the strip that recognizes that the increased temperature that summer in China brings may require the AC on inside! Stay cool - have a Margarita!

Indian Kitchen

If your looking for Indian food Nantong’s best option is the ‘Indian Kitchen’ situated near the entrance to the Nantong City Museum and inside the Nantong Foreign students compound. Frequented daily by the overseas students who study at Nantong Medical College [part of Nantong University] the ‘Indian Kitchen’ is also open to non-students. At weekends there are a number of meat options but usually through the week its a healthy mix of vegtable dishes. Its very well priced and worth a visit!
