CJW- Live Jazz from NY!

CJW Jazz lounge and resturantOne of the best vantages for taking in Shanghai's dazzling, rapidly changing cityscape is CJW (Cigar/Jazz/Wine), on the highest floor of the crown-topped, 50-story Bund Centre.

Its 360-degree panorama gives patrons a peek at the Bund's colonial architecture, Pudong's futuristic skyline, the Yu Yuan Gardens, and more.

One of Shanghai City's most desirable "in spots". Famous designer Benjamin Li's space is eclectic-metallic organza "dumplings" on the ceiling, Lava lamps, dangling crystals, clear-beaded curtains—and reflects modern Shanghai's schizophrenic array of colonial, cutting-edge, and kitsch aesthetics.

The house jazz band plays nightly until 1a.m., catering to CJW's upscale clientele, who may choose from a variety of vintage wines and spirits as well as Cuban cigars displayed in a large glass humidor. Extensive cocktail and bar snack menu.

The lounge seats 200, including 5 private rooms for 10 each.

CJW provide special menu and special price for everyday happy hour from 5:30 to 7:30pm.
